De: Jeffrey Gitomer

Narrado por: Jeffrey Gitomer

People in all kinds of jobs, in big and small companies, career builders, sales people, and aspiring executives will love this edgy, practical, and fun book in the spirit, style, and format of the best-selling Little Red Book of Selling, the country's #1 sales trainer.

Jeffrey Gitomer, offers a fresh take on networking and connecting your way to success. The Little Black Book of Connections is based on the power of "give value first". It's about how you can climb the ladder without stepping on people's backs. It's about how to earn the respect of a powerful mentor without begging. It's about how to build stronger relationships with customers, bosses, co-workers, vendors, friends, and family. It's about being in the same room with powerful people. It's about how to connect and how to not connect. It's about how to say the right things to the right people in the right circumstances to make the right impression.

Gitomer at the top of his game

Jeffrey Gitomer has plenty of best sellers, but The Little Black Book is one of the best. The principles and practices shared in this book will help you become a networker and value-bringing at the top of YOUR game.

Not his best work

Gitomer has some great material, so I find it a little difficult to give a less than stellar review. However I cannot ignore the great deal of repetition carried over from his red book of sales. There were a few pearls of wisdom and it seem to get better towards the end. I would highly recommend that if you are looking at this book and have not read the Redbook of cells that I would choose that over this.

What you need to know about networking

Very good book. He is the bestat narrating. that's why I would buy another book from. He gives you some bits on entrepreneurship and sales, which adds a motivational factor to this book

good

good listen. helpful for specific scenarios. not necessarily for everything, but good none the less

Great for beginners and seasoned vets

I believe we all always need a little guidance and strengthening of our purpose, this book helps with refocusing and enhancing some forgotten skills.

Glad I listened!

After listening to "The 12 Week Year" I held a weekly accountability meeting (WAM) and atated that I'm focusing on networking and not sure how to execute.

It was recommended that I listen to "The Little Black Book of Connections".

I'm glad I did and intend on buying a copy of the book today and execute the actions as outlined.

fantastic content

this book was full of great content and workable ideas. I've already started putting the ideas here to work and have had some success with it. can't wait to see where this journey takes me.

Great read(listen) from a great Author!

This is the third book I've read from Mr. Gitomer, and they're always a great experience for me. I've dabbled in a few sales jobs over the years and having read the little red and little yellow books has aided me in being a better version of myself, when it comes to interacting with others. He explains it simply and in a way that motivates you to try it out yourself. I highly recommend checking this book out, as well as the little red book of sales and the yellow book of yes! attitude.

Very valuable!!

Im a natural introvert, but have recently been making an effort to be more social. I want to grow in career and build community in my personal life. I’m realizing that I need networking skills. This listen was so helpful! So much so that I went and bought the hard copy to help me actually complete some of the challenge activities in the book. Im sure that I will listen to this book many more times as I continue to grow.

Git what you need from Gitomer!

Jeffrey Gitomer's sense of humor and simple strategies that make a big impact are what I love about this audio book. More authors would get me to purchase their audio books if they 1) were the narrator of their own book and 2) read their books with half as much enthusiasm as Gitomer does.
