  • The Seven Fatal Sales Mistakes CEOs and Sales VPs (even experienced ones) make time and time again.
  • How outbound sales and selling can be friendly, helpful and enjoyable.

great book

lots of great facts that I really wish I had the book to reference, as I think it would be easier to pertain.

Only useful for brand new salespeople

From the hype, I thought this book was going to provide some revolutionary new way of generating revenue. It did not. Anyone with experience in sales and marketing should already know this book's contents. I want a refund.

A timeless classic about SAAS Sales

I love this audiobook because it really drills into the 5 W's but in my opinion the HOW. This book offers many details how how to approach sales and example of what not to do. If you are new to Cold Call 2.0, Prospecting and SAAS selling, this is the perfect start.

You won't regret it!

Dated content, weird narration

There was some interesting content but many of the examples were dated (make sure it works on Blackberry). A lot of the recommendations are standard sales practice and there is a big focus on differentiating roles - SDR, AE, MRR. Maybe this was new when the book was written.

To confound things, the narration insisted on converting what must have been first person voice into third person, which made it stilted and was just annoying.

Interessante, ma concetti non sempre applicabili

Il libro spiega come organizzare commercialmente la propria azienda, condivido in parte i concetti espressi, e credo che essi siano applicabili sono in alcune industrie.

Best sales book ever that I plan to read over and over again!!

I am an accountant and I run my own virtual CFO firm. This book is absolutely wonderful and is a book that can both be a source of motivation and a technical resource that I can go back to multiple times as this book talks about everything that I was wanting to know about the sales process from prospecting to selling to managing a hiring team.

Writing a book in the third person is just dumb

Ideas in the book are great, but there is too much promotion of Salesforce. And the third person thing really should be illegal.

Great foundation for Sales people of all stages

I loved every word of it!! I am relatively new to leading a sales organization and had heard of many of the organization principles discussed in this book already. However, this book breaks takes it a step further and has provided a deeper insight on how to specialize your team and clearly establish a sales system. I am putting this book into action ASAP!
