This review is from: The Everything Selling Book (Everything) (Paperback)

This is a great book for someone who does not aspire to be a sales professional, but still needs some sales planning and presentation skills; someone like a home / small business owner. This book guides you through all the steps of the sales process, from how to find prospect, how to plan the sale, and so on. If you own a home / small business, you need sales. This book will show you how to get those sales.

3.0 out of 5 stars Too generic, September 28, 2003

This review is from: The Everything Selling Book (Everything) (Paperback)

If you are totally new to sales and have absolutely no background at all, then perhaps this book is one that would be helpful to you. It is mostly common sense.

There are simply too many good books out there, hundreds of them, to spend time on this much of a condensed and simple level. Perhaps for a young adult, high school age, this would be a good book to read as a primer for sales or maybe just to see if a career in sales might be something worth considering.

As for myself, I skimmed through it and found nothing worth dwelling on as there was nothing here I hadn't already read else where.
