Sales Blazers
8 Goal-shattering strategies from the world’s top sales leaders
Mark Cook   |  November 27, 2008  

By Reg Nordman

A good book for leaders like VPs and Directors of Sales, or sales trainers. I really enjoyed the style and viewpoint of this writer. He has selected eight behaviors to focus on and they are very workable. I have bumped into several of them across different sales books:

  • Start with a clean bill of health
  • Spark a performance pursuit
  • Get the express pass
  • Play your depth chart
  • Activate expectations
  • Coach like a professional
  • Offer RSVP feedback
  • Heighten reward potency
With his background at Covey Institute, the author finds positive ways to help you get the most of out your team. Since he is a sales person himself, he understands the power of story and personal human anecdote. I got my copy at www.thecustomercollective.com
