Zig Ziglar's Ziglar on Selling is a motivational guide built on the principle that ethical selling is about serving others. The author argues that success comes from helping clients achieve their goals, not from using pushy tactics. This philosophy of mutual benefit is the core of the book's advice.

The book provides a practical framework for the entire sales process. It covers developing a positive attitude, identifying customer needs, and closing deals effectively. Ziglar fills each section with clear strategies and memorable anecdotes. His approach turns abstract concepts into usable daily tools.

A particularly useful technique is the "benefit-rich question." Ziglar advises salespeople to ask questions that make clients visualize solutions. For example, asking "How would it help you if..." shifts the conversation. This transforms the interaction from a pitch into a collaborative discussion.

Ultimately, the book is more than a sales manual; it's a guide to building trust. Ziglar’s uplifting style and actionable advice make it a valuable resource for anyone in a people-focused career. The focus remains on long-term relationships over short-term gains.

‘Ziglar on Selling’ came highly recommended and I am glad I gave in. This book is a breath of fresh air in an otherwise stressful research on selling. Having said that I think this book should be read by everyone regardless of their profession because Ziglar is more about life than sales – ‘You can get everything in life you want if you will just help enough other people get what they want.’
This is not a one-time read, once again quoting Ziglar, ‘Motivation and bathing are recommended daily as they don’t last.’
Go for it!

⭐⭐⭐⭐
Ziglar on Selling by Zig Ziglar is a must-read for anyone looking to succeed in sales.

Here are three benefits/interesting things about the book:

💡 The book's central lesson about the importance of really believing in your product before trying to sell it is crucial. As the author writes, "If you don't believe in what you're selling, neither will your prospect." This lesson encourages readers to be passionate and authentic in their sales efforts, which is essential for building trust and closing deals.

💪 The book is filled with practical tips and strategies for improving your sales skills. From understanding the psychology of selling to developing a winning attitude, this book offers a wealth of knowledge and advice that you can put into action right away.

📖 The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it easy to understand and apply the lessons to your own life. The author's personal stories and examples add a relatable and engaging element to the book.

📝 To note, I found that some of the concepts in the book were maybe less suited in today's age, which is why I am giving it 4 out of 5 stars. Overall, however, it is a valuable resource for anyone looking to succeed in sales.
⭐⭐⭐⭐

[Jason Wicky Ong · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a very thick book with 380 pages full of words which I believe is the equivalent to the thickness of two modern self help books. It contained Zig's philosophy on selling which is profound and helpful to any Sales Professionals.

Some Chapters would be seen as long-winded by some in today's short attention span's society. Some points are constantly repeated in the book so it would not be seen as a perfect book. But since repetition is the mother of learning, maybe that's why Zig keeps repeating them.

[Ponatshegelo Katlholo]

A book that shows you that life on its own is a skill. When you live on this earth you are selling yourself to life and to the people. It has deep insights on the right kind of asking questions to prospects. No in the selling business is not no. No may mean that the prospect hasn't gotten enough information to accept the product.

It is a book that goes on to cover real issues of family and selling; health and selling and many issues which can destroy selling career. It is book that allows you to apply as you read it. Great read for 2021.

[H.R. · Rating 4 out of 5]

If you're new to selling and want to read one book, make it this one.

Zig could have cut down on a chunk of the book and that's the only reason this isn't a 5 review. It's the 2nd book I read of his and the other book (Selling 101) was parts of this one and much shorter. If you're in a time crunch read that, but this has more information and a better pacing because you could easily understand.

For as old as the books are I can fully grasp why they're still so recommended in the sales industry.

[Rafferty · Rating 5 out of 5]

It's a very good well rounded book with timeless principles.

A must read to all sales people. Tip to readers: The writing style feels old many examples and analogies do not fit modern times, but bear through it and read on as principles are timeless.

I especially love the fact that it does not only cover how to sell but also how to improve the home, our famoly and relationships, so that we won't be distracted and be more effective in selling.

[Rajiv Vohra · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another good book from Zig Ziglar, the most eternal optimistic sales person I have known. What Dale Carnegie has been to public speaking definitely Zig Ziglar is for Selling. This book is a good read for both rookies to learn the tricks of the selling profession and seasoned veterans to add couple of tools to their tool box. The narrative is simple to understand and lot of anecdotes and personal experiences which Mr. Ziglar has used would make the reading simple.

[Siddhesh Pawar · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book is helpful to build selling skills. Consultative approach of a sales guy is very convincing. Old material but still its very relevant in today's era. Apart for selling it covers the personal aspects too. 4 Steps sales formula- needs analysis, needs awareness, needs solution, and needs satisfaction is the best.

[Omkar Pendse · Rating 1 out of 5]

Pretty outdated book with concepts for door to door salesmen. This book is relevant for the time it was written in, to that's the 80s, not anymore. With technology and time todays sales game is way different yhsn before. Zig also digresses to toics completely unrelated to the central theme of the book. Referring to a line in the book, I didn't get anything out of the book, just got out of it.

[Ahmed El-Otol · Rating 5 out of 5]

The book is a must read for all sales professionals, not only it focuses on techniques and ways that increases your sales and earnings, it also stresses on the importance of your personal life and how you can manage it in a way that will have a positive impact on your sales career as well!. The book is well rounded and easy to digest.

[Zach Keller · Rating 3 out of 5]

Certainly a valuable sales tool for any and all looking to truly make a huge step in the profession. Ziglar is among the best to do it in this craft and his insight is beyond valuable.

However, to blindly follow some of the aspects in this book would be foolish, as certain factors are now outdated. Still, an incredibly worthwhile read.

[Uyên Nguyễn · Rating 5 out of 5]

Zig Ziglar là một bậc thầy bán hàng theo quan điểm cá nhân của mình vì thông qua cuốn sách, tác giả đã truyền cảm hứng cũng như ý tưởng bán hàng mới cho mình. Hy vọng sẽ thực hành thành công các sáng kiến đó vào công việc.

I've never really read anything on Sales. Well except a few articles. This book came highly recommended by a friend who thought I needed it.
Like other of his books, this did not fail. I'm going to read it again.

[Strong Extraordinary Dreams · Rating 3 out of 5]

For me this was just a random nterest book r
Don't know anything about the subject, but some good stuff and lots - Lots - of filler.

He got pretty tiring. Pratling On about his wife- the redhead- was retarded.

Made selling seen pretty unattractive

[Karla · Rating 4 out of 5]

Buenos consejos.

Me gusta la ética de trabajo y el gusto que siente por lo que ha hecho a través de los años. Solo que tiene un fuerte énfasis en ventas directas. Pero da buenos consejos.

Its an amazing book on the concept of selling presented by a holistic approach. Ziglar emphasizes that it's a lifestyle that needed to be embraced in mental, physical and spiritual level.

I listened to the audio version of Ziglar on Selling, read by the author. I didn't finish it as it was repetitive, but Ziglar sells his ideas of how to sell with humor and vigor.
