Sell the Way You Buy
Author: David Priemer
Publisher: Page Two
ISBN: 1989603203
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
While a Vice President at Salesforce, David Priemer had an epiphany during one of the company's high-pressure selling periods: the very sales tactics they were using were not working on him. Yes, the numbers still showed results, but through brute force rather than elegance and efficiency. Priemer also discovered that his sales colleagues were spending far more time on leads that did not convert to sales than on those that did. His company--and his entire profession--was acting with more than enough gusto, but without enough awareness and empathy. They were not selling the way they buy. Sell the Way You Buy is about much more than putting yourself in the customer's shoes. Customers don't always know what they want or need, or they may be seeking a solution for something that isn't their core problem. They suffer from status quo bias, from recency bias, from confirmation bias. And meanwhile, the state of overwhelming choice has most products and solution providers adrift in the "Sea of Sameness." In today's world, almost everyone is in sales, but as Priemer realized, we don't teach it. Sell the Way You Buy will show you how to ask questions, how to listen, how to tell a compelling brand story, and how to talk to customers (how to talk to people). Priemer reveals scientifically supported methods to understand the customer, identify their needs, and move them toward the right solution--all the while teaching you to avoid all the reasons why the average person doesn't like salespeople. In short, to sell the way you buy.

Boost Your Book Sales to Unimagined New Heights!
Author: Owen Jones
Publisher: Megan Publishing Services
ISBN:
Category : Antiques & Collectibles
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
I am an indie author who has written fifty-five novels and 155 self-help novel over the last twelve years. They have been translated and narrated, making another 1,300 copies in at least 44 languages. I am also almost solely responsible for selling the English versions, so I know how tough that is. This book is divided into two distinct sections: one speaks to authors, since there are things that they can do to boost sales that a book-seller cannot, such as design an eye-catching book cover. However, a book-seller should be aware of the steps that a good author should take in order to assess how high the chance is that the book could sell in large numbers. In other words, both sections apply to authors and book-sellers alike. In today’s rapidly evolving publishing landscape, both authors and booksellers face unique challenges in driving book sales. For authors, the journey doesn’t end with writing a compelling story or crafting an insightful self-help manual. In fact, that’s just the beginning. The real challenge lies in ensuring that your book reaches the hands (or screens) of readers who will appreciate and benefit from it. Whether you’re a self-published writer or traditionally published, understanding the nuances of book marketing is crucial to your success. On the other hand, booksellers — whether operating online, through physical shops, or as affiliates — play an equally vital rôle in the ecosystem. With countless titles flooding the market every year, standing out from the competition requires more than just stocking shelves or listing products on a website. It demands innovative strategies, keen marketing insights, and a deep understanding of consumer behaviour. This book is divided into two sections, tailored to address the specific needs of these two groups. In the first section, authors will discover actionable tips and techniques to effectively market their books, build their brand, and engage with their target audience. The second section is dedicated to booksellers, offering strategies to optimise sales channels, enhance customer engagement, and leverage digital tools to increase profitability. Whether you’re an author looking to amplify your reach or a bookseller aiming to boost your sales figures, this comprehensive guide will provide you with the knowledge and strategies needed to thrive in today’s competitive market. To better book sales!

Wolk and Murkette set out to change that outcome by providing an easy, fun system for book marketing that is straightforward and understandable. Authors want one thing: to give their books the BEST chance to be seen and sold. Today authors have so many easy ways to publish, literally at their fingertips, but after hitting the “publish” button, they find book sales elusive.
