5.0 out of 5 stars This book cuts to the chase ..., September 19, 2006
If you're looking for ways to grow your business network, this books cuts to the chase. Thom Singer shows a strong knowledge of what it takes to meet people who can help you crack into corporate accounts. His focus on identifying targeted accounts, analyzing connections and then putting together a systematic strategy to expand your network is exactly what's needed. Singer also details how to create your own peer groups to help you reach your own business goals. Everything in here is very aligned with the approaches recommended in Selling to Big Companies.
