As an atheist with agnostic tendencies I had little religious inclination. Though I do believe god to be a salesman. I believe in selling myself not a product and that is something this book stressed. I think this is a great informative read for any would be salesman.
A surprisingly interesting and a short riveting read. The idea of bringing God into the business world intrigued me to read this book. Mark Stevens draw an interesting parallel between God and salesperson. The way God’s religion is founded on belief, unwavering faith, love, service to mankind; it influences sales people to rise above the traditional way of selling to create an experience that is based on trust, integrity, morality, relationship building and serves buyer in the longer run. I have added this book to our little home library and will definitely recommend to my kids for their reading when they’re ready to put their feet in the professional world.
Mark explains and compares faith to secular sales strategies and draws lessons on how sales can be more people and value focused than commissions & profit focused.
It all starts from a genuine desire to solve problems for people and extend service to them.
