About this listen
Too Nice for Sales is a compilation of moments of my life and what those moments taught me about sales techniques. I currently run one of the most successful real estate teams in the country, and our team utilizes the sales approaches found in this audiobook; they are based on Biblical principles.
More than 10 years ago, I had a crisis of faith, as I learned how to be a successful salesperson while wrestling with dishonest techniques to make a sale. This audiobook is a deep dive into what I learned during these struggles and core reason my business is a success today.

The Must Have Real Estate Mindset
The techniques in this book are not just theoretical, but performed every single day by one of the highest producing real estate teams in America. I know the author and he is real, impassioned, and it's an absolute teacher by heart.
Perhaps since I know him, the narrator does not accurately perform with a cadence of Harry himself. More of a sentence more than a story teller. Regardless, the material make it's must read for any agent trying to build his/her business.
Just get it. Listen to it. But the hardcopy, and read it as well. Then watch your business grow.

Barry Jenkins is the real deal
Barry is an unbelievable coach, communicator, and guide. I’ve been connected to Barry’s work for a couple of years. This book highlights what he teaches day in and day out. I totally dig his humility, vulnerability, and authenticity when he teaches concepts for us to follow. He’s a super successful real estate dude with actionable insight and leaves the lectures and ego totally out of it. Outstanding book for those us working with middle of funnel prospects, highly recommended. After listening, I do have one wish though - it would have been awesome to have Barry narrate the book.

Finally something new
A book that finally speaks my language. Love the way Berry thinks and cares about his clients. This book is very helpful to understand what to say & how to say it that will connect with people. I understand that AI is all the rage but the “artificial” part is what Berry turns into Human. If you care about people and your “human” you need to read this book.
