Publisher's summary

There are countless books, seminars, and consultants that offer the secrets to everlasting business success. After heeding their advice, perhaps you manage your time more efficiently, write a compelling pitch letter, or close a few more deals. But after a week or a month, you revert to your old bad habits and mediocre performance, until the next hot new program comes along. The only lasting way to enhance your productivity and growth is to focus on a handful of basic concepts and repeat them week after week - and teach your staff to do the same.

This audiobook explains how to tune up virtually every area of your business systematically, with just a little disciplined focus. Spend an hour per week on each "impact area" of your business, and you will be astonished at how much you can accomplish.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Fantastically Informative

Yes, I am new to the world of small business, however I am an economist and so I went through my schooling surrounded by business concepts.

Even for someone who has gone through business academia, this book was still AWESOME. I couldn't stop listening... it only took me 5 days to get through it.

I totally recommend this book to anyone.

The Simplicity of Alleged Complexity

Being new to sales I heard about this book from one of Toby Salgado's podcast guests. This audiobook was phenomenal! I have purchased the physical book also so that I can go over and over this material. This book is not just about sales but in my opinion should have been titled "The Ultimate Business Machine"! It's about fine tuning the most important aspects of your entire business even down to your business's very core: Your Brain!

An Absolute Road Map to Selling Success

My only regret is to not have read it sooner. I saw the tittle so many times. I heard his name in marketing circles, I read about Chet and yet didn't purchased this marvelous masterpiece. If you're thinking about it, don't. It will give you all the clarity you need and remove all doubts on how to move forward, scale and expand.
