Throw the old rules of traditional sales out the window. To remain successful in business you must sell. To be a sales professional, you need to truly understand the selling process. A customer-driven model of sales is the only approach for long-term success.

For the professional salesperson, it puts into a repeatable process what they have been doing instinctively. But why leave it to chance? An A+++ book!

Kennedy covers smart thinking, system thinking, futuristic thinking, and positive thinking. This book makes it very clear as to how to think in the right way so that your success is assured.


#9)Psychology of Selling
by Brian Tracy

It is not the knowing but the application that helps us become better sales professionals. Some of his teachings are basic, common sense. Yet the way that he illustrates the usage and prinicples are second to none. This material has helped me improve my selling skills dramatically. If you are looking for some ideas and skills to apply then this book is a wealth of practical information.
