Short review:
Salespeople must have confidence in what they sell but the first sell any salesperson makes is in their own head.
When they look into that mirror in the morning is that face somebody they would wish to buy from?
Although not specifically a sales book Paul McGee’s new book could act as a sales manager for those field sales people who work remotely and seldom see a sales manager except for the annual appraisal (all too common these days) but could do with some motivation pep.
“Tough love” is something many readers may find difficult to take but Paul McGee does it in such a genuine and persuasive way.
He will be known to many as the S.U.M.O. man. His sobriquet “Shut Up and Move On” is a key to his philosophy.
If there was a Business Book equivalent of the Booker Prize Paul McGee’s “Self Confidence” would be in the list of finalists for this year.
