Can I Borrow Your Car?
Mike Garrison helps professionals increase ideal client acquisition through referrals rather than cold outreach. With more than 25 years in sales training, business coaching, and strategic planning, he has taught thousands how to earn trust and turn client and COI relationships into a predictable engine of introductions.
He is the author of Can I Borrow Your Car? and Would You Build This? which reframes referrals as the act of borrowing someone's most valuable asset: their reputation and help owners focus on the next level. He is also co-author of the bestseller Truth or Delusion: Busting Networking's Biggest Myths and a contributor to the #1 bestseller Masters of Success.
Based in Roanoke, Virginia, Mike writes regularly on referrals, trust, and the role of AI in modern business development. When he's not coaching, he's on the water fly fishing or caring for his special needs son with his amazing wife.
