Joe Girard worked his way up from shoeshine boy, dishwasher, delivery boy, stove assembler, and home building contractor to become recognized in the Guinness Book of Records as the "world's greatest salesman". He sold more retail "big ticket" items "one at a time" than any other salesperson in any retail industry including houses, boats, motor homes, insurance, automobiles, etc. As an international lecturer Joe speaks before civic groups, organizations and sales conventions of many major corporations worldwide. The author of the powerful bestsellers, HOW TO SELL YOURSELF, HOW TO SELL ANYTHING TO ANYBODY and HOW TO CLOSE EVERY SALE, goes beyond anything you have ever read about achieving success.
