Book Description

August 1975
This book explains - in terms candid enough to make you wince at times - what intimidation is, why you become intimidated, and how you can avoid the mental lapses that occasionally cause even the most confident people to inadvertently, and unknowingly, become intimidated. Regardless of what your "game" is, there is one reality you should face up to right now: "The results a person obtains are inversely proportionate to the degree to which he is intimidated. It is not what you say or do that counts, but what your posture is when you say or do it."

5.0 out of 5 stars Particularly relevant for Real Estate Professionals., February 24, 2002

This review is from: Winning Through Intimidation (Hardcover)
I am a real estate agent and after first reading this book my first reaction was to keep it a secret. I felt it was so powerful I did not want it in the hands of my competition or co-workers. I read the whole book 16 hours after buying it. When done, I knew his philosophy would earn me money. Ringer explains the personality types that try to screw others and how to handle these people. His view of business describes the playing field as a jungle where few have ethics in the 11th hour when it is time to cash in the chips. He is right and anyone who has not read this book is at a distinct disadvantage!

4.0 out of 5 stars Classic, February 18, 2010
By 
This review is from: Winning Through Intimidation (Hardcover)
Finished Mr. Ringer's classic this morning. After "hearing" of the book for years, about six months ago I purchased a used hardback and put it in the queue. As many others have pointed out, this book isn't so much about intimidation as it is about "NOT" being intimidated by others. He provides real-world counsel when he advises that closing the deal is not the goal; getting paid is the goal---and apparently in his industry (real estate) this can be a role of the dice. I enjoyed the book in the beginning, but after a while his details of real estate successes and failures became tedious. He wraps up nicely with some penetrating questions for the reader. I would recommend this to anyone trying to build their confidence. I'll keep on the shelves as a reference and will recommend to colleagues and friends.
