Women Make the Best Salesmen : IsnÂ’t it Time You Started Using their Secrets?

Summary: A worthy read by an inspiring author
Review: I am an entrepreneur who picked up this book because I know I am really always selling something..... and naturally I am attracted to a book about how another woman has excelled in selling.

Marion Luna Brem writes in a friendly, advice filled manner which covers many bases in sales from the simple to complex.

Right from the start she is teaching the reader a different way of thinking.

She asks the reader, "What are you selling?"

That single response was worth the price of the book. All sales people, all businesses, all entrepreneurs are selling "H-E-L-P." I sat with that for a while and thought... yes, she is right.

One favorite chapter was "12 Sure Ways to Increase Sales" which includes 3 of Marion's Principles which are simple, strategic and yes, within the chapter refreshingly expanded upon. In a nutshell, they are ask -always work beyond expectation; Get the Word Out; and Stay With It.)

The content is mostly based on selling a physical product, one at a time (like the author sells cars, one at a time to one customer at a time)the lessons could be applicable in other areas as well.

Summary: A lesson for women in all careers!
Review: The fact that this book is "paired" for sale with a book on dieting shows a real need for careerwomen to speak out loud and clear about their business and sales skills-rather than bow to society's images! Women show far too much humility about their talents and skills. If we want people to value our skills, we must first show that we value ourselves - by making sure our accomplishments are visible to targeted audiences. If we want people to hire us, buy from us, and invest in our companies, they have to know who we are, what we have accomplished and why they should do business with us! Self-promotion is not bragging. It is a valuable business tool that careerwomen must add to their strategies for success. (Review by: Marion E.
