A former professional tennis player turned entrepreneur, author and sales expert, Johnson is known as “The Nation’s Business Psychologist.” In addition to traveling 8,000 miles a week to deliver speeches on topics such as “How to Read Your Customer’s Mind,” “The Trust Connection” and “How to Increase Your Business by 80% in Eight Weeks,” he contributes to 15 national trade and management magazines and has authored six bestselling books.
