Every marketer tells a story. And if they do it right, we believe them. We believe that wine tastes better in a $20 glass than a $1 glass. We believe that an $80,000 Porsche Cayenne is vastly superior to a $36,000 VW Touareg, which is virtually the same car. We believe that $225 Pumas will make our feet feel better, and look cooler, than $20 no-names... and believing it makes it true.

People don't buy from people they like. No! Your buyer doesn't care about you or your product or service. It's not your job to overcome objections, it's your buyer's. Closing isn't a skill of good salespeople; it's the skill of weak salespeople. Price isn't the main reason salespeople lose the sale. Gap Selling shreds traditional and closely held sales beliefs that have been hurting salespeople for decades. For years, salespeople have embraced a myriad of sales tactics and belief systems that have unknowingly created many of the issues they have been trying to avoid.

Great Book
This book is great and offers some real practical advice for running a sales team. I have been in sales for a long time, so some of the things I knew but there is still plenty to learn from this book. The narration is OK but certainly gets the point across. If you work as a sales manager, sales leader or hope to one day then this book is well worth a listen.

There are some useful nuggets in this book but a lot of it is repeat from other sources.
Essentially the moral of the book is to focus and hit your targets. if you can't do that you can't sell. There's not a huge amount on technique for managing sales team, a few stories shared and some motivation.

Fantastic Advice for a New Sales Manager
Before interviewing for a promotion I started reading this book and when I got the job I adopted much of the advice in this book, and I've started really confidently and well. You have to see past the cheesy American narration but the fundamentals in this book are really clear and, in my short time as sales manager, really seem to work!

Great, no nonsense approach and appraisal of almost every sales environment and applicable to almost every industry. For most current and practicing Sales Managers a great tool to help refocus. Fantastic learnings for the newly appointed....and for this of us who have been around the block a few times, rejuvenating (and an amusing reflection on my career to date) I defy anyone not to recognise some or all the faux pas referred to in this book. Fantastic!

Results over Activity? Results win
I really like this book. It was mainly about transforming upper management on down to focus more on results vs activity. You can ruin a great sales culture by micromanaging activity. instead you should cultivate your talent and provide them with tools that will increase their results and remove non sales activities from their duties. 80% of the book is really calling out the accountability of upper management and the ineffectiveness of Salesforce and other CRM's. Companies need to get back to focusing on the art of selling and coach in person and not through emails. 20% was on solutions. I would like to see a more 60/40 split but I know that could be difficult because every company is different. Every leader should have this book

Tell it like it is straightforward advice!
There is no magic pill nor magic wand in sales. This book is a smack in the face reality check with a dose of good medicine. Mike's blunt tell it like it is truths mixed with a few real world stories really helps the reader connect to what he's saying. The advice is not new age but dead on! I've implemented many of the principles from this book and have seen amazing results. In fact, I'm reading this book again and I've listened to the audible version so I can squeeze out every piece of wisdom possible and use it with my sales team. Thank you Mike for sharing your vision with all of us!
