classic Zig

This is a classic Zig: the Texas "twang"; the wealth of stories; the glib cleches. Outstanding motivational content; very positive and inspirational. If you like self-dev and inspirational books, you'll love this one.

Maybe for a car dealer

I really wanted to like Zig Zigler. I have heard so much praise about his tapes and seminars. I found his stories amusing but lacking in substance. His tactics are loud, obnoxious, and overbearing. If someone tried to sell to me with these tactics I would take my money and run the other way.

This book may apply more for someone in a direct sales environment, car sales, vacume cleaner sales, timeshares. But I sell embroidery, this won't work for me at all.

eh

i've heard a lot of good things about zig but in the end, it was just too much hype and not enough performance. the strategies are very easy to see through which would annoy the prospect (i've tried them)

Classic Ziglar

Would you consider the audio edition of Zig Ziglar's Secrets of Closing the Sale to be better than the print version?

I haven't read the print version, but I loved hearing Zig himself. This audio version isn't Zig narrating, but rather audio of him "giving" his presentations. It is accompanied by a narrator who introduces and summarizes each segment.

Any additional comments?

This "book" is a wonderful compilation of how to close the sale, given in excellent Zig fashion with anecdotes, illustrations and examples throughout. Great listen!

Where’s the rest?

I like this book a lot, so much that I decided to purchase it in audio form as well. But this is only half the book… where’s the rest?
