Of the 17 million people in the U.S. who are involved directly or indirectly in sales, many repeatedly acknowledge facing four major challenges:

No prior sales education or training

Lack of formalized sales training, resources, and methodologies provided by their companies

Due to the recession and downsizing era, lack of 12-18 month professional sales training for new hires provided by Fortune 500 companies

A consistent struggle to keep their sales force, distributors, manufacturers reps and affiliates motivated and focused on effectively selling their products and services

Mastering the World of Selling helps companies and entrepreneurs overcome these four major obstacles with candid advice and winning strategies from the leading sales trainers and training companies in the world:

In addition to all of the contributors to the book, we would like to thank all of the amazing individuals at John Wiley & Sons, Inc., who enthusiastically brought this project to life, including Matt Holt, Shannon Vargo, Beth Zipko, and Lauren Freestone.

Foreword

I have been a student of sales since November 11, 1971. I was listening to a brand-new technology called a cassette tape when a guy named Jay Douglas Edwards uttered the sales tip, If the customer says, Do these come in green? you say, Would you like them in green? And I thoughtcool.

Thats the day I realized that there was a science to selling. I wanted to learn more.

I have read all or portions of hundreds of sales books over the past 40 years, but most of what I have learned has come from the spark of an idea gleaned from a book and then somewhat altered once I got out into the field and had to actually apply the strategy. Kind of like you.

All sales booksas well as sales expertsoffer some form of valuable information. As a student, its your job to determine how that information fits into your skill set, environment, marketplace, and customer interactions.

Mastering the World of Selling is loaded with sales experts and business experts offering some of their best ideas and their best strategies and their best tips and their best information.

Eric Taylor cold-called me in 2002, claiming he could put on a public seminar in my home state of New Jersey. He told me that he would fill the hall with people and sponsors and was willing to pay my fee in order to make that happen.

I had worked with many public seminar promoters, most of whom had failed miserably, and at that time it was my decision not to work with any public promoter, but rather to do the seminars myself. But there was something about Eric that I likedhis spirit, his ideas, his self-confidence, his ability to convey a message; so I decided to say okay.

Eric filled the hall that day, and my new friend Matt Holtan editor from John Wiley & Sons, Inc.came to see me.

Matt has risen much higher in the company and is publishing this book along with his talented editor Shannon Vargo. (It all comes full circle.) Eric filled the hall again in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2007. In 2008, we did an event called Jersey Boys where I partnered with two other sales experts who had grown up in New Jersey like I had.

Eric Taylor has done it again, this time with David Riklan, the founder of SelfGrowth.com. Eric is a world-class student, participant, and all-around father. In compiling this twenty-first-century best-of sales book, he has used his connections, his wisdom, and his moxie to create a book that contains way more than reading material. Study it, highlight it, implement it, and bank it.

How to read the book: Learning sales skills is a matter of understanding, adoption, application, and a bit of tweaking. I have found that unless the tip or strategy is comfortable to me, I wont use it. It has to fit with my personality and be in the framework of my comfortable conversation and ethics.

As a reader myself, I am challenging you to look at the ideas you encounter here with an open mind and strike from your mind the phrase I know that. Most salespeople already know everything; the problem is that they dont do it. Rather, ask yourself, How good at that am I on a scale of 1 to 10?

Then ask yourself:

How does this information apply to me?

Do I agree with this?

Am I comfortable with this?

Does it fit my personality?

Is this me?

If the answer to all of those questions is yes, then ask yourself the following questions:

Is this in the best interest of the customer?

Will this lead me to a long-term relationship with the customer? And finally the true self-test question:

Will this make my mother proud?

This book is all about what is working now. It looks at business, sales, service, and personal development for the second decade of the twenty-first century. The messages offered are from experts in their field who have actually used these methods and strategies to build their own success. And your job is to adopt them, adapt them, and turn them into money.

Jeffrey Gitomer, author of The Little Red Book of Selling
