I need to read this again!

It's rare that I listen to a book that I want to read again, almost immediately, but there are so many nuggets in Beyond Referrals that I'm going to listen at least once more. Being a solo-preneur I wasn't sure there would be info for me, but there's something everyone, whether you work for a big company, or work for yourself. Bill Cates gives you the steps to turn your cold-calling into warm and hot leads. My favorite tip is "Don't keep me a secret", such a simple shift from asking directly for a referral. Get this book and turn up the heat on your referrals.

many great tips in this book, it's worth a listen.

I'd recommend this book for most any business owners, especially small businesses. it tends to be hard to ask for referrals but that's always the best kind of lead.

great ideas

will definitely listen again and probably buy it in kindle form as well, since author gives useful action points and checklists in each chapter that are impossible to capture while listening in the car. A liitle repetative but not overly so. in fact i found my self rewinding quite a bit since i'd go off in thought about applying an idea presented and would then miss what followed. recomnended for small business owners and anyone in sales.
