Read it, study it, refer back to it, and your sales results will soar." --Tom Karinshak, Managing Director, Barclaycard US "Our company rolled out the Silver Bullet six-step sales process in 2006. Since that time, we have seen our sales productivity and customer retention rates soar. And most importantly, so has our top line. Silver Bullet Selling provides a deep dive into building trusting relationships with your customers and selling to their needs in an effective and consistent way." --Russell Dash, RSVP Sales--West Region, Rewards Network "We've worked the Barticks' six-step process for several years, and our sales have never been better. We're bringing in more new clients and generating more business from current clients." --Andy Holden, President and COO, CPS Insurance Services "Talk about a direct hit! Silver Bullet Selling delivers what most how-to sales books don't--a sales process that works and a wealth of real-life examples from all kinds of sales environments. The exercises in the book also help you do a little target practice of your own. If you want to improve your sales, read this book!" --Jones Loflin, coauthor of Juggling Elephants "There are many great business books that everyone reads, everyone talks about, and no one implements. That's because these books don't tell you how to execute. As a client of the Barticks, I know they have mastered the art of sales execution. Anyone who follows the six steps in this book will see an immediate improvement in their sales performance." --Tom Green, Managing Partner, Mentorprise, LLCHinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
