Onward Christian Salesman is a book about decisions and about the need to lead a faith based life. The book exams the sales career and what goes into making it a unique profession. Within the pages the reader will find information and strategies that can be used to solve the challenges that confront the person that has embarked on a career in sales. There is something in this book for anyone that has either chosen the career in sales or is about to embark on that journey. The book theme revolves around the need to maintain our focus on what is truly important in our lives. This book was written with as broad a brush as possible. The book was not written to make super star sales people out of its readers. It was meant to help super star sales people to draw all of the pieces of their lives together. It is far too easy to drift from your principles and from your true purpose. It is the author's intention to help to nudge the reader in directions where they can discover or rediscover their reasons for doing what they do. The title implies that it is a book written by a Christian and that is a true statement. As a Christian we are called to make the good news available to all of God's children. God will make the heart ready to receive it. Within the pages you will find some examples of the use of Christ centered principles, but the majority of the expository revolves around the change that His presence has made in the author's life. As you read through the pages keep in mind that everything that is included within this book has been done so for the purpose of keeping the reader focused on what truly matters. The stuff that we accumulate and the awards that we achieve have limited value when they are compared to our true mission while we are walking this earth. Hopefully the message is compelling and you are able to glean one or two things that make your journey a little easier.

Being a Christian sales person is going to be tricky. That's what I thought as I entered my first professional sales position. In retrospect, my life as a Christian sales person was confusing, gut-wrenchingly difficult, frustrating, and wonderfully rewarding. I dealt with questions that you may also face: - How do I balance the need to get results with the Christian ethic of leaving the outcomes to Christ? - Where do I go for support and encouragement in a church where I'm seen as a second class citizen? - How and when do I voice my beliefs on the job, when my employer is not paying me to do that? - How do I maintain my perspective when some of the professional Christians around me are so much more manipulative and deceitful than any secular acquaintance? - How do I maintain my Christian ethics inside a company that supports just the opposite? - How do I grow a consulting practice with no resources and no network? Here's my story.

Reeling from a recent divorce, I found myself in a strange town a thousand miles away from home, working in a profession I had never thought about pursuing. Before long, I realized that I was surrounded by younger salespeople who had much more knowledge and energy than me. Suddenly, I felt alone, scared and a little bit intimidated. The reality was that to be successful in this new venture, I had to outwork everyone around me. Not only did I have to outsell my fellow sales consultants, I also needed to know more than they did. Much to my surprise, as the sales started coming in, I moved up the tally board. I made a little money and became more confident.Before too long, I had built an effective client base, by taking care of my customers and treating them as if they were members of my own family. Every time my fellow sales consultants greeted a new guest, I genuinely hoped they would make the sale. When they did, I congratulated them. When they didn't, I tried to lift their spirits. I became an inspired seller trying to inspire not just myself but others as well. Sharing this powerful "circle of inspiration" is the purpose of this book - an opportunity to spur people like me and you to walk into the workplace inspired every day.My prayer is that you take at least one inspiring nugget from this book each day and be inspired. If that happens, then this labor of love will not have been in vain. Because our world could use a few more "inspired" salespeople.
