According to Sandler CEO David Mattson, the definition of professional selling is simple. It’s a conversation between adults to uncover the truth.
This definition – so at odds with the high-pressure approaches to selling that have come to define salespeople in popular culture – lies at the heart of Mattson’s breakthrough book How to Sell to the Modern Buyer. His message is both timeless and timely, as changes in technology and buying habits have transformed the buyer journey. To address those changes, Mattson provides 52 concise, tested selling rules for professionals who must learn to adjust to dramatic marketplace changes -- fast. As Frank Cespedes, senior lecturer at Harvard Business School, puts it: “Read this book, because it’s not the customer’s responsibility to adapt to your selling approach; it’s your responsibility to adapt to how and why they buy.”
“The timeless Sandler Selling Rules, updated and expanded for today’s sales professionals. The only safe assumption is that your competition will eventually be reading all or part of How to Sell to the Modern Buyer … so my advice is to get the jump on them.”
