If your shoulders are rolled forward, head forward tilted with chin down, arms hanging and energy levels down and you’re trying to make an impact transferring your confidence about your products or services on someone it’s just not going to happen.

Unless you’re a monopoly business.

But people will always want to buy from sharp energetic people they like.

Good core strength, strong back muscles holding your posture and energy in your presentation.
