He Sold me on …
Each session was packed with powerful sales techniques
I’ve never actually had a sales job, however, meeting with prospects 2 discuss our services placed me in a Consultative Role, thus you can say I was engaged in, “Consultative Selling.”
My closing rate was ~ 95% and listening to, The Real Mad Men of Selling, uncovered many of the natural techniques i was using … the best is 2 ask questions, let ur prospect talk.
In this fast paced, click society, people want to be heard, to be understood, and if you can just listen with empathy, you will gain a lotta trust, and trust the the currency of great selling 😉
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this audio book as it gave me a deep understanding of what I was naturally doing 2 earn a lotta biz, and I highly recommend reading this book 2 anyone who deals with people 🥰

Outdated
This book is outdated and opposite to my values. It is more of a preachy patriarchal how to live manual than a sales guide. Dislike.
