Show Notes

In this episode, I am bringing you Part 2 of our nine-part series with the “Follow Up Queen” Athena Captain. Athena brings a refreshingly brutal transparency to the sharing of her experience, both in success and failure, making her a very relatable sales coach. She teaches 9 fundamental strategies to creating and maintaining a sales referral engine.  

Named one of the Top 50 Women Making a Difference in 2020, Athena Captain believes that leadership is only effective if it comes from a genuine desire to serve, and from hard-won experience. Athena teaches her 9-Step System to help others develop their own referral-based businesses. She has successfully coached and led sales teams in real estate for over twenty years. Within her community, Athena is a Co-Founder of the Savannah Station Equine Therapy Program, in honor of her daughter Savannah, and Athena is a board member of Oklahoma Family Network.
