Download or read book The Challenger Sale written by Matthew Dixon and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-11-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What's the secret to sales success? If you're like most business leaders, you'd say it's fundamentally about relationships-and you'd be wrong. The best salespeople don't just build relationships with customers. They challenge them. The need to understand what top-performing reps are doing that their average performing colleagues are not drove Matthew Dixon, Brent Adamson, and their colleagues at Corporate Executive Board to investigate the skills, behaviors, knowledge, and attitudes that matter most for high performance. And what they discovered may be the biggest shock to conventional sales wisdom in decades. Based on an exhaustive study of thousands of sales reps across multiple industries and geographies, The Challenger Sale argues that classic relationship building is a losing approach, especially when it comes to selling complex, large-scale business-to-business solutions. The authors' study found that every sales rep in the world falls into one of five distinct profiles, and while all of these types of reps can deliver average sales performance, only one-the Challenger- delivers consistently high performance. Instead of bludgeoning customers with endless facts and features about their company and products, Challengers approach customers with unique insights about how they can save or make money. They tailor their sales message to the customer's specific needs and objectives. Rather than acquiescing to the customer's every demand or objection, they are assertive, pushing back when necessary and taking control of the sale. The things that make Challengers unique are replicable and teachable to the average sales rep. Once you understand how to identify the Challengers in your organization, you can model their approach and embed it throughout your sales force. The authors explain how almost any average-performing rep, once equipped with the right tools, can successfully reframe customers' expectations and deliver a distinctive purchase experience that drives higher levels of customer loyalty and, ultimately, greater growth.

Download or read book Any Ordinary Day written by Leigh Sales and published by Random House Australia. This book was released on 2019-02 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a journalist, Leigh Sales often encounters people experiencing the worst moments of their lives in the full glare of the media. But one particular string of bad news stories--and a terrifying brush with her own mortality--sent her looking for answers about how vulnerable each of us is to a life-changing event. What are our chances of actually experiencing one? What do we fear most and why? And when the worst does happen, what comes next? In this wise and layered book, Leigh talks intimately with people who've faced the unimaginable, from terrorism to natural disaster to simply being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Expecting broken lives, she instead finds strength, hope, even humor. Leigh brilliantly condenses the cutting-edge research on the way the human brain processes fear and grief, and poses the questions we too often ignore out of awkwardness. Along the way, she offers an unguarded account of her own challenges and what she's learned about coping with life's unexpected blows. Warm, candid, and empathetic, this book is about what happens when ordinary people, on ordinary days, are forced to suddenly find the resilience most of us don't know we have.
Download or read book The Power of Discomfort written by José Luiz Tejon and published by Editora Gente. This book was released on 2022-01-21 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WHAT WAS THE GREAT DISCOMFORT OF YOUR LIFE, WHICH, HAD IT NOT HAPPENED, YOU WOULDN'T HAVE GOTTEN TO WHERE YOU ARE? Have you ever stopped to think about how the feeling of discomfort motivates us to run after our dreams? Without the nuisance, the uneasiness, the unpleasantness, the difficulty, in short, the discomfort, we wouldn't leave our safe zone and, much less, try to improve our reality. It is necessary to be uncomfortable in order to transform and even to dream. In The Power of Discomfort you will realize how essential this feeling is for all of us to achieve the transformations we seek, leaving behind a lukewarm, dull life. With inspiring words, José Luiz Tejon takes us on a journey through our inner restlessness and teaches us how we can achieve our best through this feeling that is so present in our lives and, at the same time, so transformative. Here you will learn how to: Identify the seven types of discomfort that are real tools: "fly", "poor me" (victimization), "head against the wall", values, "online fake", apocalyptic (entropic), and divine (syntropic). Identify when the discomfort is legitimate or just an attempt to escape from the problem. Apply the 8Cs method (named after its Portuguese acronym)—Courage, Trust, Cooperation, Creation, Consciousness, Achievement, Correction, and Character—in everyday life. Face life's worries and discomforts without fear, thus avoiding alienation and hopelessness. Trace the path to a life full of joy and fulfillment.
