Publisher's Summary

Bryan Flanagan wastes no time in instructing those new to the world of sales. He is direct and succinct, using as few words as possible to make it absolutely clear that selling is a learned skill and that professional salespeople are the ones who understand that selling is not about being a certain personality type; it is about being the go-to person, the problem solver, and the solution finder in the lives of those who need a product or service.

From start to finish, Bryan focuses on every step necessary to become a skilled professional salesperson. This work is the complete beginner “how to” book on sales. The economic climate of today is making the world of selling a viable option for many who previously never would have considered it. Here you will learn what all existing salespeople already know: a good salesperson always has job security!

FREE sales quiz included. Discover your sales personality!

Bryan Flanagan began as a delivery boy at IBM. In 1984 he discovered Zig Ziglar, a gifted, polished speaker and trainer. His career with IBM saw him advance through sales and management, using material he learned from Zig’s first book. He has since proven himself a top corporate trainer who has a special passion for salespeople. His sessions are lively, fun, fast paced, and full of interaction.

Zig Ziglar, world renowned author and speaker, has an appeal that transcends barriers of age, culture, and occupation. Since 1970 he has traveled over five million miles across the world delivering powerful life-improvement messages, cultivating the energy of change. Mr. Ziglar has written 29 celebrated books on personal growth, leadership, sales, faith, family, and success. Ten titles have been on the best-seller lists; his books and tapes have been translated into over 38 languages and dialects.

Great Book For Rookies and Veterans

This book covers all the basics of sales.

It’s the perfect primer for new sales people or a good refresher to help veteran sales people get back to basics.

Highly recommend!

I love the enthusiasm of the author

There is a lot of great material here but what won me over is the enthusiasm and understanding that sales is not just a matter of technique. It takes character, faith, and good processes.

Excellent and motivating sales book

Zig Ziglar provides the foreword and Bryan Flanagan is the narrator of his audiobook.

Highly recommended. Focus is on trust-based selling and integrity.

I'm listening to this again and have also ordered a hardcover copy of the book through Amazon.
