Advanced Selling Strategies

by Brian Tracy

Tracy's most complete sales book: psychology of selling, prospecting, relationship building, presentations, objections, closing and time management for salespeople. It is dense, practical and old-school, and most of it still works because buyers have not changed as much as tools have.

CLICK TO SEE

Read it if…

you sell for a living and want a thorough, classic method.

Skip it if…

you want modern inbound or social selling; this predates it.

Three things you will actually use

  1. Selling is the transfer of enthusiasm backed by competence.
  2. Questions sell; statements do not.
  3. Objections are requests for more information.

Do this first

Read the objections chapter and script answers to your five most common ones.

Our verdict

Thorough, classic, still works.
