My New Favorite Audiobook!

This book is a must-listen. I started listening to this book and taking notes and couldn't stop listening. Dr Cindy McGovern drew me in to the simple but powerful concepts of the art of selling with her energy and her fantastic stories. She is a masterful storyteller!

I learned many years ago that, as a learning and development professional, I'm a salesman. I sell ideas and behavior change. However, this book helped me to realize that we sell all the time. You will hear in the book, "every interaction is a transaction." Viewing interactions as sales transactions to influence decisions and behavior will help you to achieve success in so many areas of your life. I've already put into practice many ideas from the book. One idea in particular that was helpful to me was to identify whether I was going for what I wanted or if I was just settling for what I thought I deserved.

If you are a customer, co-worker or concerned citizen you sell as you interact with others. The five-step process in this book will help you to discover what you want and how to offer others what they want. The stories that the author shares will help you apply the principles of the book.

Fantastic to Listen/Read

What a joyful enlightenment it was to listen to this book, every single second I was drawn to the material, the real life stories and the truthfulness of the author, who is also the narrator. Totally authentic, just the way I like it.

Amazing and easy to follow

This book touches on so many valuable topics and is very easy to follow. The five steps given are steps anyone can take with effort. The length of the book was perfect as well!
