Summary: A GREAT BOOK WRITTEN BY A TRUE GENIUS!!!
Review: I met the author, Ben Gay, several years ago while we were both on an extended vacation in the Santa Barbara area. Ben gave me a copy of his book, and it changed my life. He inspired me to write my own book, "AMERICA'S GUIDE TO FRAUD PREVENTION" and also taught me the fine art of public speaking which helped launch my television career. Your book is great, Ben, and so are you. It was on your wings that I learned to fly. BRETT CHAMPION

Summary: Buy it or Die
Review: I used to sell this book. I sold my entire enventory of this book years ago when Ben Gay had a shop selling books and vitamins in California. Not only did I sell the book using the closes in the book I also sold my rag eared sample copies for full price. Before I would walk into a busines I would read one of the closes and use that close to sell. It took a while to get into the swing of the sale but the more I used it the better I got. At one car dealership I sold 4 copies at $20 each and the owner later told me that his salesmen thought that I "walked on water". The simple soft sale may work for some of you but the samples in this book are slam dunks. From hard close to harder closes these examples are just what you need to get the "OK" on the bottom line... As an example One will get you the signature or a black eye and nothing in between.. ReRead the title to this review.. It is honest and it works.

Summary: Packed with solid ideas.
Review: I was forced to make a career change due to downsizing and soon discovered that sales was the only career choice available with no degree required. I needed to learn how to sell, what to say, how to say it, and the "nuts and bolts" of how to turn every sales situation to my favor. I don't care what you are selling, you can easily adapt any example in this book to your product. The chapter with examples using the worlds best closes is worth the price of the book alone. This stuff is not pie in the sky BS it works. I wish I had read this book a few years ago as I would have been able to close more than I ever dreamed of. This is a must read for anyone new or old to the sales profession. I can't praise this book enough.

Summary: THE GREATEST HOW-TO-SELL BOOK EVER WRITTEN!
Review: I'm going to say this bluntly: If you're in commission sales, and you don't have this book, you're nuts.
This book isn't full of some pollyanna junk that so many how-to-sell books have in them. This book is written by a guy who is in the sales trenches everyday, and he isn't afraid to tell you how the real sales world really is. He tells you how to get the sale that day! And make it stick! He tells you how to close a customer without hearing those words that every salesperson dreads--"I want to think about it."
Warning: IF you are looking for pollyanna, positve thinking sales writing, that puts the customer on some sort of pedastal, don't buy this book. Go to a Zig Zigglar book and forget about it. But if you're looking to close sales and make lots more money, then this book is for you.
Trust me, you haven't read a sales book like this one! I own two copies! IT WORKS!

Summary: Depends on what you sell
Review: If you sell timeshare, computer training courses, kitchen knives door-to-door, or any other type of "must absolutely get the sale today" type of product or service, then this book is for you.Personally, I'm not comfortable with the techniques used in the book anymore as I've evolved into more of a "new school" sales consultant. If your sales career depends on building long-term relationships, avoid this book. Some of the closes (the safety deposit box close, for example) are outright diabolical.

Summary: I have read over 250 sales books and this one is the best!
Review: Most sales books don't tell closing how it really is. When you look in the contents section for closing or objection handling and IF they even have this it is usally about 2 pages in lenth. The Closers is strong! If every salesperson had this and applied it then the few closers out there might have some compitition. Truth is that this book is ahead od it's time. In the word of touchy-feely sales books that don't deal with selling how it really is this one tells it how it is. I have read 250 sales books and this one is by far the best. I am currently writing my own sales book and I hope it can be in the same catagory as THE CLOSERS! The book should be the number one rated sales book on Amazon.com, period!

Summary: Peek inside the brain of a REAL salesmen
Review: This book is not for the novice. It is a must read for anyone who wants to be the best salesperson they can be. Selling is just like any other profession. It requires education and study. This book is required reading for any serious salesperson.

Summary: Absolutely Freakin' Awesome Book!!!
Review: Without doubt the greatest sales book ever written for the true sales professional. I mean the belly-to-belly commissioned sales pro who doesn't make a dime unless you close a sale. WARNING! If you are a panty waist, base paid, order-taker "salesman" then you will be a lot more offended by this book than this remark. So for the "order takers" and base-salary types with a high paid wife as your security blanket, stick with the sugar coated "Dr. Feelgood" sales books. However, if you want to truly learn how to sell as a straight commissioned pro you MUST have this book! Also, please don't confuse this book with "The Closers Book 2"; that's a good book and I love Ben Gay but it is the first book I am referring to here.
