The ultimate guide to relationships, influence and persuasion in
21st century business.
What is most important to your success as a sales or business
professional? Is it education, experience, product knowledge, job
title, territory, or business dress? Is it your company's
reputation, product, price, marketing collateral, delivery lead
times, in stock ratios, service guarantees, management strength, or
warehouse location? Is it testimonials, the latest Forbes write up,
or brand awareness? Is it the investment in the latest CRM
software, business 2.0 tools, or social media strategy?
You could hire a fancy consulting firm, make the list longer,
add some bullet points, put it into a PowerPoint presentation, and
go through the whole dog and pony show. But at the end of the day
there will be only one conclusion... None of the above You see, the
most important competitive edge for today's business professionals
cannot be found on this list, your resume, or in any of your
company's marketing brochures.
If you want to know the real secret to what matters most in
business, just look in the mirror. That's right, it's YOU. Do these
other things matter? Of course they do, but when all things are
equal (and in the competitive world we live in today, things almost
always are) People Buy You.
Your ability to build lasting business relationships that allow
you to close more deals, retain clients, increase your income, and

mechanics and stale processes found in so many of today's sales and
business books, and goes right to the heart of what matters most in
21st century business. Offering a straight forward, actionable
