I've just read this book after meeting the author at a coaching conference. I read plenty of business books in my job, and I can confidently say that this little book is one of the more profound works I've encountered on business, selling, and life. Few of us are probably aware of the baggage we carry around regarding the nature of sales, marketing, and success. I feel Carol Costello has really opened my eyes and given me an entirely new way to achieve success without selling my soul. This book is as much about being a good person as it is about being successful. If you've even thought for a second that the two are mutually exclusive, buy this book!

This book is a distillation of years of selling success! It is clear and easy to read. It inspires me to look at selling in a new and fresh way. Ms. Costello is a master in saving the soul of selling and helping the seller's in the margin! Bravo! I can now proceed with ease!

Carol Costello has written a helpful how-to book for anyone with an idea, a project, a product, or a service they hope to share. Some readers will already know Costello from her popular Soul of Selling seminars. For them this book will be a chance to review, renew, and expand on what they learned. For other readers this will be an eye-opening guidebook to selling with ease and integrity. In either case, a highly recommended book.

The principles Carol Costello lays out in The Soul of Selling shifted my vantage point about selling, freeing me to become very effective. Her approach helped me realize how important it truly is to let the world (well, my world) know about what I believe will enhance their lives. That is the inspriation. Equally important, she gives practical and doable systematic steps to implement. If you do what she says, you will be successful, and have fun in the process. Whether you are fundraising for your child's school, a professsional salesperson, or a small business owner, this book will help you clarify and achieve your goals.

I love this book! I am one to avoid all activity related to selling ANYTHING. This book helped me see the value that a salesperson IS to people. And what a fun read! I've given this book as gifts to all sorts of "sales" people: A Soccer Mom, a President/CEO for a nonprofit, AND an attorney. There are good tips for those in all walks of life.

Enough waiting around massaging all excuses for not offering the sale...The Soul of Selling provides step by step process notes for just doing it with ease and joy. Yes you can! You'll learn what you're ready to learn and it can be sweet in the process. I recommend it.

Excellent read! Ms. Costello has turned up the heat on selling techniques that will change the way I do business. This is cutting edge...and I've read them all! The chapters build upon one another opening many new approaches to successful selling. I am going to enroll in the author's workshop as titled, Soul of Selling. I feel a new sense of ease already. I can't wait to utilize these techniques in my day to day interactions.

I'm so grateful Costello wrote the Soul of Selling. The book is a significant piece in a wondrous transformation and breakthrough I'm having right now. I was about as far from comfortable as a person could be with the whole idea of selling. Could have SWORN I wasn't a sales person. Hah. The amazing things one finds out about one's self when we get out of our own way! And Carol has great tools in the book that helped me do just that.

I've applied the concepts, ideas and action steps as I read the book. It's making a joyful difference in how I approach prospective clients. I'm enrolling more easily now than ever before. What I've received has opened a door to a position where I will be enrolling people for another person's program - one I believe in wholeheartedly. Now I know I can do it with grace and ease!

This was a wonderful read with a fresh approach to selling. I was able to see how I get in my own way when networking and selling my services. It helped me see that selling was offering value rather than bothering or imposing on people.

Ms. Costello provided me with the information, confidence and ease to realize how important MY product is to the world. I am not selling, I'm providing a service as does Ms. Costello. In learning how to provide goods and services for others, my confidence grew as did my sales. This book is written in a charming, informative and easy to follow way. I am thankful for all this valuable information!
