The sequel to the international bestseller The Go-Giver, applying its inspirational approach to real-world challenges.The Go-Giver took the business world by storm with its message that giving is the simplest, most fulfilling, and most effective path to success. It has inspired hundreds of thousands of readers; but some have wondered how the story's lessons stand up to the tough challenges of everyday, real-world business.Bob Burg and John David Mann answer that question in Go-Givers Sell More, a practical guide that turns giving into the cornerstone of a powerful and effective approach to selling.Most of us think of sales as a struggle to make people do something they don't really want to do. But that cut-throat mentality makes the process much harder than it has to be - especially in an economic downturn when customers are more suspicious and defensive than ever. It's far more effective (and satisfying) when salespeople think like Go-Givers and focus on creating value for the customer. Cultivate a trusting relationship and provide outstanding service, and great results will follow automatically.Illustrating their points with a wide range of real-life examples, Burg and Mann offer tips and strategies that anyone in sales can start applying right away.

Salg og service betragtes i mange virksomheder som to separate discipliner. Denne bog forsøger at kombinere service med en salgsindsats. Bogen giver en række praktiske anvisninger, øvelser og værktøjer til hvordan servicesamtalen kan føre til et mersalg.Det kræver store investeringer i markedsføring, at få en kunde til at henvende sig – og herefter kræver det en god salgsindsats, at få solgt sit produkt. Men mange kunder kontakter selv virksomheden i forbindelse med deres efterspørgsel af service – helt uden at virksomhederne markedsfører sig. Servicemedarbejderen har dermed en central rolle i kontakten til kunden - og virksomheden en oplagt mulighed for salg uden omkostningstung markedsføring.Som servicemedarbejder betragter man sig sjældent som sælger. Man ekspederer, servicerer og giver råd. Men allerede i servicesamtalen har man sat en række mekanismer i gang, der potentielt kan føre til et salg. Det er disse mekanismer, og hvordan de kan anvendes effektivt, der er denne bogs fokus.Salg i serviceorganisationer henvender sig til medarbejdere, ledere, instruktører og andre interessenter, der til dagligt befinder sig i den mentale zone mellem service og salg. Bogen er praksisorienteret opbygget i et samspil mellem teori, praksis, eksempler og opgaver, og indeholder desuden en hel række konkrete redskaber til at tackle udfordringerne ved salg i serviceorganisationer.

Rethinking the traditional sales team to grow sales, efficiency & employee engagementMore salespeople report feeling burned out and fewer than ever able to meet their targets, as the complexity of selling grows in the new business-to-business environment. For sales leaders, continuing to pile on new requirements at the level of the individual sales rep is not a sustainable way forward and a different approach is required to grow sales, efficiency & employee engagement.From selling as an individual discipline to one being done by teams of different specialists collaborating to win. Through real life cases, research and decision tools, Teams That Sell shows business, commercial & sales leaders how to:– Design more effective sales teams to handle the more complex challenge of selling in today’s B2B environment.– Decide which type of sales team is different business contexts and types of selling.– Build and manage high performing sales teams with different types of specialist collaborating to sell.– Succeed with the transformation from groups of individuals to teams that sellFootball teams with only strikers may score the occasional goal, but teams with collaborating specialists win games and championships.Sales individuals can sell, but on a team with people that complement each other they excel. ”Teams That Sell lays out a blueprint for how commercial leaders organize around one of the main developments we saw during my time at Sales Performance International and are still seeing today. The need for greater collaboration to succeed with sales. Selling is growing in complexity and difficult things are better solved by working together than working alone”.Jürgen HeymanFormer CEO & Executive Chairman Sales Performance International (SPI)”Teams That Sell is about why more companies like ours are making selling a team effort, instead of being done by individuals working individually. It is not that our sales engineers can’t do it alone. It’s about how they can do it better as part of a team with different types of roles that complement each other, to make the whole greater than the sum of its individual parts”.Tim PaymasterCCO Ellab Validation & Monitoring Solutions”Teams That Sell explains in simple and practical terms what those of us that have worked as leaders in high complexity sales have known for years; Selling is best done by people who complement each other rather than individuals. For sales leaders in need of an organizational blueprint that fits today’s selling environment, this is the book to read”.Claus IpsenSales Director Randstad and former Director, Solution Sales at ISS A/S

Dieses nach Sichtung Tausender von Werbeanzeigen sorgfältig zusammengestellte Buch präsentiert die Krönung der amerikanischen Printwerbung im Zeitalter der "Big Idea". Die bunten und originellen Kampagnen malen ein faszinierendes Bild der 1950er- und 1960er-Jahre und dokumentieren, wie die Angst vor dem Kalten Krieg immer mehr dem sorgenfreien Kapitalismus der Mad-Men-Ära wich, in der hemmungslos gequalmt und gesoffen wurde. Die Bilder, die digital überarbeitet wurden, um eine optimale Reproduktionsqualität zu erzielen, sind von einer bestechenden Schärfe und Farbintensität. Sie brachten einst ihr Zielpublikum mit der Verlockung ungeahnter Möglichkeiten dazu, alles nur Erdenkliche zu kaufen - von Hüfthaltern bis Handfeuerwaffen, Autos bis Zahnpasta, Flugreisen bis Küchengeräten. Dieses mal schockierende, mal amüsante und inspirierende Panorama eines vergangenen Marketing-Milieus ist zugleich Zeitdokument und Referenzwerk für innovatives Design und witzige Werbung.
