Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I wholeheartedly agree with Meera Kothand. Just a few additional points I might add: One thing that makes it seem easier to sell tangible goods is the ability of a seller to give the buyer a sensory experience. You can touch, feel, experience the product and begin to sell yourself on it. It's why salespeople at auto dealerships are so keen on getting you behind the wheel for a test drive. But some sellers over-rely on the product, then, to sell itself. They don't personalize the benefits or help make the connection that will be of value to the buyer. Take away the tangible. and these same sellers suddenly have to depend on their own ability to describe and magnify value. Some can and some cannot. When selling intangibles, you have to be a good storyteller so your buyer can visualize the experience that they can't physically have. You have to demonstrate value in a way that isn't experiential. When selling tangibles, you should be using this same approach to personalize the experience and magnify the value. Instead of thinking one or the other of those pairs will be easier, consider the following: What is the length of the usual sales cycle for each -- does one seem "too long" to you? Which interests you the most, which do you like to talk about? The reason I suggest considering the above is that all of those are "easy" to sell when you like what you're selling and can live with the length of the sales cycle.

"Jeffrey Cohen's integrative approach to conceptual issues of intangible assets is creative and a refreshing contribution. He brings law, economics, finance, and accounting to the same table, which results in a comprehensive framework for understanding how value is created and sustained. His construct of 'proto-assets' and 'portfolio of intangible economic benefits' is key. Written in an easy-to-read style with many practical examples, this book will be useful for both novice and experienced professionals." --W.

Download or read book Intangibles written by Joan Ryan and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2020-04-28 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From baseball to biology, an award-winning journalist highlights the power of team chemistry in this "terrific" data-driven investigation of human relationships (Billie Jean King). Does team chemistry actually exist? Is there scientific or mathematical proof? Is team chemistry as real and relevant as on-base percentages and wins above replacement? In Joan Ryan's groundbreaking book we discover that the answer to all of the above is a resounding yes. As Ryan puts it, team chemistry, or the combination of biological and social forces that boosts selfless effort among more players over more days of a season, is what drives sports teams toward a common goal, encouraging the players to be the best versions of themselves. These are the elements of teams that make them "click," the ones that foster trust and respect, and push players to exceed their own potential when they work well together. Team chemistry alone won't win a World Series, but talent alone won't win it, either. And by interviewing more than 100 players, coaches, managers, and statisticians, as well as over five years of extensive research in neuroscience, biology, physiology, and psychology, Ryan proves that the social and emotional state of a team does affect performance. Grit, passion, selflessness, and effort matter -- but never underestimate the power of chemistry.
