1.0 out of 5 stars No substance... None., May 25 2004
By A Customer
I purchased this book on the strength of all the five-star amazon.com reviews. And having struggled through it, I can only imagine that the author wrote most of those reviews himself. I suppose readers who never studied the sales processes developed by Bosworth, or Miller and Heimann, or Rackham, may be able to squeeze enough value out of this book to rate it as high as two stars. But probably not.

5.0 out of 5 stars Packed with Knowledge!, May 19 2004
By Rolf Dobelli "getAbstract.com" (Switzerland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This excellent guide explains a methodology that can help anyone in sales. This sales approach depends essentially on seeing the sale through the customer's eyes, and involving the customer in designing a solution to his or her own problems. This approach goes against some standard practices in sales, but those standard practices antagonize customers and build distrust. Author Jeff Thull offers helpful reminders on the value of researching individual customers, picking the right entry point to an organization and other best practices. However, he sometimes seems over-enthusiastic and over-optimistic about his system's infallibility. After all, in some organizations, sales people who tried to follow this methodology would be criticized for failing to meet more conventional targets, such as number of calls per week. This detailed method for conquering many-level, multi-step sales is time and research-intensive, but highly effective. We applaud his emphasis on the value of asking and listening instead of speaking. Highly recommended.

1.0 out of 5 stars Regurgitation of Sandler and Heiman, April 12 2004
By A Customer
Thull has taken Sandler's system, added some bits of "New Strategic Selling" from Heiman, and called it his own. Please don't get fooled, even if he did persuade some notable business authors. I've also been to his seminars, and have needed a sales process for a complex sale, and he added no value. I learned nothing new. I tried to use his style of "diagnostic" line of questioning, and customers saw right through it, and it even confused sales calls. Went back to my own hybrid system, and started closing deals again. Save your money and time, and use the originals.
