Reviews

[Kate Smith · Rating 3 out of 5]

A short read. Very practical approaches to negotiating with a lot of psychology. Wish it had more scenarios. A little tough to get through

[Brody · Rating 3 out of 5]

This reads like an intro to sociology/psychology text book at times. Some of the material is interesting, but there is little direction in the way of practicality and ability to apply some of what you learn.

[Lynn · Rating 1 out of 5]

Unless you have been raised in a forest with no contact with any humans, you don't need to read this book.

The book had a lot of seminar talk and it didn't offer a lot of content in my opinion.

Not an all time favorite whatsoever since I am no longer in sales but this was a reread and I do find it to have a lot of great points for anyone in the sales field!
