Helps you drive value

Being in software sales, people often shut down around pricing. This book helped me to reframe my mindset, and sales scripting, so I could instead focus on selling to the value instead of the cost.

I’m Sandler trained & sell like a friend and this book teaches the same effective techniques.

4 stars since book is a bit repetitive by way of the stories since it was often about tangible items like jewelry. I had to listen over weeks to get through it…but that may just be me.

Great foundation for anyone working in retail sales, or customer service, not only high end...

No book by itself is enough to tell you all you need in our complex word, but this book does address many of the issues facing retail sales professionals and does a great job doing it.

The chapters are succinct, thought provoking, I recommend giving this a read or a listen if you are in any kind of sales or customer service.

Focused Too Much On Items & Not Enough On Services

A lot of great information was discussed in Selling Luxury, but I felt it focused too much on selling tangible products and not nearly enough on luxury services.
One example was when it was mentioned Luxury retailers might be competing against a travel agent. As a travel consultant focused on premium and luxury products, I found this to come across as a bit demeaning towards the agent.
Yes, luxury retailers may very well be competing with me for a guest's time, attention, loyalty, and financial investment in my product and service. I offer more than just another item that takes up space and may or may not be a timeless classic or just a fad. I offer my clients the ability to collect unforgettable and unique experiences and memories with family and friends while giving them the personalized attention and luxury service they deserve.

I needed this in my life

This is that smart, quick book that reminds you why you serve your public. I will be reviewing and referring to it often. Smart voice and well written.
