5.0 out of 5 stars You Will Sell More After You Read This Book, August 23, 2002
If you are starting a business and want to learn the basics of selling and marketing a service or product, there are lots of books out there but very few present as much useful information as clearly and concisely as does Micheal McGaulley's Selling 101.

The book is organized in a chronological fashion and covers all the steps from finding a prospect to following up on an account you have sold. The sections on locating quality prospects on convincing the decision maker to go with you are especially well done.


If you own your own business and are at a point in the growth of your business that you need to add salespeople, this book includes some excellent material on hiring, motivating, and retaining quality sales people that is not included in most other books on the selling process.

This would be a particularly good book for the business owner who wants to sell more effectively and does not have a sales and marketing background. However, it is also a very good book for the salesperson who just wants to close more sales.

A great book for people who are in the business world and about to enter the business world. I used several helpful suggestions from the book in recent interviews. Once I found my job, I kept refering back to it because of its helpful suggestions.
