Take it from someone who has been in sales for over 30 years, this little book is stuffed with helpful insights for the new sales person and very good reminders to get back to the basics for us old timers. It is a useful tool for anyone in any level of sales. Doug Proffitt VP Sales NOA Medical, Inds “THE BIG GREEN BOOK ON SALES” is indeed BIG. I found this book to be a great tool to my career. It is very user friendly. I particularly like the chapter “Winning Attitudes” – I can’t help myself nodding and agreeing to what Sam wrote; “the one resource that will never depreciate the one resource that you will always possess and that no one can take away from you= YOURSELF” – that is true. And being yourself when you’re selling helps you. Trusting yourself makes the customer trust you as well. The book is more than techniques about selling. It is about the ethics and how you can build your desire to sell with the right attitude. Fiona Yu -Publishing Consultant” This is not a text book but rather a philosophy of selling written in easy reading form, based on three major rules that help build long lasting customer relationships. The enthusiasm of the author for the profession of selling provides a basic guide based on his vast experience, proving that it doesn't matter what product you represent as long as it is presented well. Focus is brought to the knowledge of the customers business, effective super charged customer service and the handling of objections which when initiated can create a win win situation, improving the bottom line of both buyer and seller. A great read for both the novice and seasoned salesperson. Victoria Nicholas VP Sales Great stories to give a person new to the world of sales, a feel for time tested methods for success. An easy and informative read that even the most experienced salesperson will benefit from. Brian Bena Vice President Vandevanter Engineering
Jeffrey Gitomer¿s The Little Green Book of Getting Your Way digs deep into the 9.5 elements that make persuasion, and getting your way, happen. By breaking down the elements, the reader will begin to understand, take action, become proficient, and then master the ability to persuade. Because persuasion occurs in so many different areas of life and business, Gitomer leads the reader from mental readiness to the principles of getting your way and the power that persuasion offers. He challenges the reader to prepare before they present, to prepare before they try to persuade. He demonstrates how to change a presentation into a performance and shows how this can be done in any environment.But because persuasion most often takes place in business, he draws special emphasis to the reader¿s ability to write and sell persuasively. The book talks about the persistence that enables winning persuasion. He brings the Benjamin Franklin quote ¿If at first you don¿t succeed, try, try again¿ to the Gitomer level of ¿You only fail when you decide to quit,¿ and the book ends challenging the reader how to think about excellence and eloquence. It will be up to the reader to take advantage of the opportunity and harness the power.

Read Diane McEachern's posts on the Penguin Blog. Protecting our environment is one of the biggest issues facing our planet today. But how do we solve a problem that can seem overwhelming-even hopeless? As Diane MacEachern argues in Big Green Purse, the best way to fight the industries that pollute the planet, thereby changing the marketplace forever, is to mobilize the most powerful consumer force in the world-women. MacEachern's message is simple but revolutionary. If women harness the "power of their purse" and intentionally shift their spending money to commodities that have the greatest environmental benefit, they can create a cleaner, greener world. Spirited and informative, this book: - targets twenty commodities-cars, cosmetics, coffee, food, paper products, appliances, cleansers, and more-where women's dollars can make a dramatic difference; - provides easy-to-follow guidelines and lists so women can choose the greenest option regardless of what they're buying, along with recommended companies they should support; - encourages women to spend wisely by explaining what's worth the premium price some green products cost, what's not, and when they shouldn't spend money at all; and - differentiates between products that are actually "green" and those that are simply marketed as "ecofriendly." Whether readers want to start with small changes or are ready to devote the majority of their budget to green products, MacEachern offers concrete and immediate ways that women can take action and make a difference. Empowering and enlightening, Big Green Purse will become the "green shopping bible" for women everywhere who are asking, "What can I do?"
