IS THERE REALLY A BETTER WAY TO SELL? Straight from the work of two expert sales consultants comes "decision intelligence," a genuinely customer-centric approach tailor-made for social enterprises. DR. ROY WHITTEN and SCOTT ROY are the founders of Whitten & Roy Partnership. WRP maintains a global consultant network and has served organizations in over 40 countries. Inside Sell Well, Do Good, you'll discover how transformative science exposes a root problem in sales: the belief - held by salespeople and clients alike - that selling is fundamentally a process of pitching, persuading, and pressuring people to buy. This single conviction leads to individual behaviors and organizational systems that become self-perpetuating, dysfunctional, and unproductive for everyone involved, creating conditions that undermine the mission of social enterprises and limit their impact. Using real stories from over a decade of field work, the authors put you into the training room to break through old habits and fixed mindsets. Follow in the footsteps of thousands of salespeople and executives as you learn to transform your team. Get to the heart of customer-centric selling and explore how to: - Master your attitude to produce your best work - Lead compelling conversations that result in committed action - Educate your customers to help them make the right buying decision - Build a selling system that changes the behavior of sales agents and their customers. No hype or hyperbole - just actionable insight from two seasoned executives who believe that selling is the heartbeat of business and who know that how a social enterprise sells will determine its ultimate value to the customers it serves.

True or false? In selling high-value products or services: 'closing' increases your chance of success; it is essential to describe the benefits of your product or service to the customer; objection handling is an important skill; open questions are more effective than closed questions. All false, says this provocative book. Neil Rackham and his team studied more than 35,000 sales calls made by 10,000 sales people in 23 countries over 12 years. Their findings revealed that many of the methods developed for selling low-value goods just don‘t work for major sales. Rackham went on to introduce his SPIN-Selling method. SPIN describes the whole selling process: Situation questions Problem questions Implication questions Need-payoff questions SPIN-Selling provides you with a set of simple and practical techniques which have been tried in many of today‘s leading companies with dramatic improvements to their sales performance.

What do winners of major sales do differently than the sellers who almost won, but ultimately came in second place? Mike Schultz and John Doerr, bestselling authors and world-renowned sales experts, set out to find the answer. They studied more than 700 business-to-business purchases made by buyers who represented a total of $3.1 billion in annual purchasing power. When they compared the winners to the second-place finishers, they found surprising results. Not only do sales winners sell differently, they sell radically differently, than the second-place finishers. In recent years, buyers have increasingly seen products and services as replaceable. You might think this would mean that the sale goes to the lowest bidder. Not true! A new breed of seller—the insight seller—is winning the sale with strong prices and margins even in the face of increasing competition and commoditization. In Insight Selling, Schultz and Doerr share the surprising results of their research on what sales winners do differently, and outline exactly what you need to do to transform yourself and your team into insight sellers. They introduce a simple three-level model based on what buyers say tip the scales in favor of the winners: Level 1 "Connect." Winners connect the dots between customer needs and company solutions, while also connecting with buyers as people. Level 2 "Convince." Winners convince buyers that they can achieve maximum return, that the risks are acceptable, and that the seller is the best choice among all options. Level 3 "Collaborate." Winners collaborate with buyers by bringing new ideas to the table, delivering new ideas and insights, and working with buyers as a team. They also found that much of the popular and current advice given to sellers can damage sales results. Insight Selling is both a strategic and tactical guide that will separate the good advice from the bad, and teach you how to put the three levels of selling to work to inspire buyers, influence their agendas, and maximize value. If you want to find yourself and your team in the winner's circle more often, this book is a must-read.

“Abbey’s latter-day Luddites, introduced in his novel The Monkey Wrench Gang, are back—and not a moment too soon” (The New York Times). George Washington Hayduke, ex-Green Beret, was last seen clinging to a rock face in the wilds of Utah as an armed posse hunted him down for his eco-radical crimes. Now he’s back, with a fiery need for vengeance . . . This sequel to Edward Abbey’s cult classic brings back the old gang of environmental warriors, as they battle a fundamentalist preacher intent on turning the Grand Canyon into a uranium mine—in “a fine novel, combative and comic, anarchistic and ultimately redemptive” (Albuquerque Journal). “I laughed out loud reading this book.” —Los Angeles Times Book Review
