Recommendation
British sales expert Richard Denny demystifies the sales process in this readable and easy-to-process text. He covers the basic tenets of sales, from getting the first appointment to asking the right questions to closing the deal. His concepts aren’t particularly groundbreaking. Anyone working in sales should be familiar with most of his ideas, and might need to be ahead of his coverage on communication technology, such as voice mail, e-mail and beyond. Yet, getAbstract finds that the book serves as a useful introduction to the ABC’s of selling and suggests that up-and-coming salespeople can certainly benefit from its contents.
In this summary, you will learn
- Why working in sales is like running your own business;
- How to ask questions that reveal your client’s needs; and
- How to get that elusive first appointment, make an effective presentation, handle objections and close the deal.
