Book Description

September 10, 2000
BECOME THE EXCEPTION Many Americans seem to have been stricken with the disease “quit-itis.” They quit everything too soon. It is almost an epidemic. From marriages to diets. From jobs to exercise programs. The malady is even more acute in the sales profession.

This book will help you “Become The Exception” to this sad statistic. You can become among the elite of the sales world who know how to keep a prospect and convert that prospect to a loyal client. Learning how is not going to be painful. In fact, it will be a wonderful adventure.

After a prospect first rejects a proposal, fifty percent of sales people stop calling. Another twenty-five percent stop calling a prospect after a second rejection. But, the vast majority of all sales happen after the fifth contact.

Is this bad news? Well, for the quitters it is. But for salespeople schooled in the art of selling, this statistic is exciting news. Why? Because seventy-five percent of your competition is quitting long before it is time to quit. All you need to do is figure out how to stay in the game through those five initial blows to your ego.

We are about to create a systematic, consistent, persistent, do-able program . . . a program that is realistic and that you can stick to. We are going to groove into your swing a sequence of events that will ensure you establish a relationship with prospective clients and grow your business.


Editorial Reviews

Review

After reading your book, I knew that you were the right speaker for our national sales meeting." -- Brian McAlary, VP Sales, Fraser Paper 11/00

From the Publisher

There never will be a short supply of "How To" sales books, however, writing a book is one thing; buying a book is another thing; benefitting from a book is the only thing. Mike Marchev has finally put into writing what every sales professional not only needs to know, but needs to endorse and adopt as their own. In a shoot-from-the-hip, easy to read 272 pages, Mike outlines a system that everybody can put into practice. Known as a "realist", Mike speaks to his readers just as if they were sitting in front of him, and that is in a logical, easy, practical fashion. Become The Exception is the exception.

5.0 out of 5 stars Become the Exception. Read the book and become the title., February 17, 2001
By 
Frank Adornato (Bridgewater, NJ USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Become The Exception (Paperback)
"Become the Exception" is a fast and easy read. The book is packed with valuable tools about becoming a better sales person, but don't be surprised if you realize that the lessons are also about becoming a better person. Mike uses a lot of funny anecdotal stories, some at his own expense. The book is entertaining and educational. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn more about becoming better at whatever they do and whoever they are.

5.0 out of 5 stars Discover a Low-Stress Selling System, June 24, 2003
This review is from: Become The Exception (Paperback)
In an easy-to-read text, this book presents a proven method for creating sales success without having to beat yourself against closed doors. Besides the detailed system it offers, it recommends that you adopt more useful attitudes that take the pressure off while still producing results. I especially liked the section demystifying myths about selling. This book is perfect for anyone new to sales or someone more experienced who needs a motivational shot in the arm.
