Publisher's summary

Over a decade ago came the Hypnotic Salesman: seven key principles of subliminal communication that teach anyone to sell directly to the subconscious, bypassing the part of the mind responsible for judging and evaluating. Originally designed to give the sales executives of a major national commercial radio group the edge over their competitors, twelve years later the Hypnotic Salesman II drills down on the seven most powerful sales persuasion techniques in the world today.

The secrets in this book will explode your closure rates, smash your targets and give you valuable insight into human motivation and persuasion. Craig Beck will explain each principle in detail and then show you how if you follow it directly with another you will create an unbreakable chain of events. Willpower and even a stubborn personality are no defence against these amazing but easy-to-learn techniques. What you will discover in this book will potentially change and improve your interaction with everyone in your life. Not just with sales prospects but with your friends, family, and partners too. People have used these techniques to blast their targets, improve their careers, understand their children better, and even find and attract the man or woman of their dreams.

AMAZING!

This book has improved my conversations and sales. It has shown me how to properly establish comfort and trust within the prospect. I teach dance but always had a problem speaking with customers. Not anymore, Thank you Craig.

An introduction to the topic

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

If it was really about hypnotic sales, I could have rate it more.
Though this work is a good introduction.
But it does not talk about hypnotic sale method...

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

The most interesting is the overall idea.
The least interesting are some ideas that I do not agree at all... Craig Beck's definition of the ego is to much Yungian for me... The same for his subconscious topic... Hum not convincing at all (even wrong for me!)

How could the performance have been better?

If it had really spoken about hypnotic sales method...

Any additional comments?

As an hypnotherapist I feel this is not a book over hypnotic sale methods...
But this is still a good introduction that I recommend...

Great if you sell cars

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

not unless you are or want to be a car salesman

Would you recommend The Hypnotic Salesman II to your friends? Why or why not?

No, I would not. No at all what the book touts. If you want to be a great car salesman then I all mean buy this book. It will fill you with tricks and deception, but no real solid sales techniques. I question if Craig as any sales background at all.

What does Craig Beck bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

He does present the story quite well. He is a joy to listen to.

Did The Hypnotic Salesman II inspire you to do anything?

Yes, ask for a refund

Any additional comments?

do yourself a favor. DON'T waste your money or your credits on this book.

Very helpful, gained a lot of knowledge

Would you consider the audio edition of The Hypnotic Salesman II to be better than the print version?

Yes I like the audio because I do not read books. Enjoy listening much better. Craig puts expression where it needs to be. I really enjoy listening to him!

To the point sales techniques

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend it to anyone in sales. Unlike many other sales books, it gives you to the point techniques which you can instantly implement into your pitch. Craig Beck keeps it interesting with his enthusiasm and sometimes anecdotal approach to each persuasion technique he teaches.

It is great for who needs some way to approach people

I love this audible
First of all it is read using emotion, tone and read by real people not machine, which keep me engaged.
Second, He provides some insight of how to approach people and how to make people to like you and move on to your business.
Lastly, he provides a lot of key points for you to remember what a step by step book. You can understand this book even without the first chapter of the Hypnotic Salesman

Changes are abounding for this listener

What did you love best about The Hypnotic Salesman II?

I love how he communicated on my level. He spoke about things that I would understand.

Who was your favorite character and why?

My favorite character is Craig Beck because he is entertaining and informative.

What does Craig Beck bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Craig Beck's accent enhanced the story. Many non-British people, like myself, are drawn to British accents.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I only laughed at one joke that he made at the end. It was really funny.

Any additional comments?

I just finished listening to the book, and now I'm looking forward to applying it to my job where sales is key. I am looking forward to the better success rate with my work.

Motivating and Powerful

If you’re a serious sales professional, you would be a fool not to listen and familiarize yourself with these techniques. A well written brief series which can easily be referenced on an ongoing regular basis. Looking forward to the rest of Craig Beck’s material.

Best of its kind

Where does The Hypnotic Salesman II rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

The best

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Hypnotic Salesman II?

The whole book

What does Craig Beck bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Really not applicable - this is not a story book and audible.com should do a better job of allowing us to rate books based on the type of book it is. But to answer the question the best I can - The experience of this book would not have been as effective without hearing the inflection of the author's voice and how he emphasizes certain points. Also, the author has a very pleasant English accent which makes the experience even greater in my opinion

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Again - this is not a story book.

Any additional comments?

The author only list a small amount of pointers of selling relative to many other sales books that give many, many more sales pointers. So why am I so enthusiastic about this book??? Well, because the pointers this author gives are by far the most important ones a salesperson can use. The points he gives are extremely effective, and if used properly can increase a salesperson's income substantially. This is not an overstatement. It did mine and I've been selling for many years and have always been at the top. I have made significantly more income having listened to this book (3 times). I have read / listened to many sales books in my years and many are good and many are just so so but this one is the best and most effective (possibly only tied with "The New Science of Persuasion & Influence:- also by the same author). But The Hypnotic Salesman II is more basic as the other has more subtle / advanced techniques. Not that an experienced salesperson would not benefit greatly from The Hypnotic Salesman II, quite the contrary and I would definitely recommend listening to the The Hypnotic Salesman II first regardless if a novice of experienced salesperson.
