He hired Tim Cook - and the company sped up the development of new products, getting them into consumers' hands faster. The rest is history.

Everyone is selling, all the time - but not everyone sells well, and not everyone realizes that selling is what's happening. There are so many different departments that must come together in collaboration to ensure the successful delivery of a product - and consequently a satisfied customer - that everyone along the chain should, ideally, be selling all the time, to everyone, in every department. This book tells managers and salespeople what works when it comes to connecting all the dots and, just as important, what doesn't work.
