Customer Reviews

Excellent book!

This is an awsome book, just don't buy the audio version, unless you also buy the paperback version. Too much is stripped down from the contents of this book in the audio version. I own both.

The Odds Are In Your Favor

On page 190 Mr. Ziglar shares a very profound point of view. "Theoretically, the odds are in your favor because very few consumers read books, attend classe, or listen to recordings on how not to buy." I have been reading his books and listening to his tapes for years and this book, to me, is a history book in sales. He shares his sales experiences and solutions when he sold with small companies, and gives examples of some of the sharpest salesmen in the country who sold large orders for some of the biggest corporations in America. One of the main points he brings out throughout the book is A.A.F.T.O. Want to know what it means? Get the book.

Thanks Zig!

I would encourage you to listen and listen again to a wounderful explaination of what being a salesperson is all about. If you are looking for a sales career or just want to reinforce what you already know, this wonderful CD is what its all about. In fact, it's a dream come ture for most. This CD is a real look into what it takes to nurture a positive aditude about getting ahead and staying on top, not only in sales but in your life. Thank you Zig Ziglar.

Packed with Knowledge!

Reading Zig Ziglar on sales is little like looking over Beethoven's shoulder at the piano. For decades, Ziglar has championed the role of the noble sales professional. Here, he tells how he made - and botched - his first sales call back in 1947. Despite the passing years since that first sales call, Ziglar's message of integrity and sales acumen remains relevant and fresh. As the master says, sales is the transference of belief. We from getAbstract invite everyone to read this book on sales, and become a believer.
