SPIN Selling

By: Neil Rackham

Narrated by: Eli Woods

 

Written by Neil Rackham, former president and founder of Huthwaite corporation, SPIN Selling is a must-listen for anyone involved in selling or managing a sales force. Unquestionably the best-documented account of sales success ever collected and the result of the Huthwaite corporation's massive 12-year, one-million-dollar research into effective sales performance, this groundbreaking resource details the revolutionary SPIN (Situation, Problem, Implication, Need-payoff) strategy.

In SPIN Selling, Rackham delivers the first book to specifically examine selling high-value product and services. By following the simple, practical, and easy-to-apply techniques of SPIN, listeners will be able to dramatically increase their sales volume from major accounts. Rackham answers key questions such as “What makes success in major sales?” and “Why do techniques like closing work in small sales but fail in larger ones?”

You will learn why traditional sales methods that were developed for small consumer sales just won't work for large sales and why conventional selling methods are doomed to fail in major sales. Packed with real-world examples and informative case studies - and backed by hard research data - SPIN Selling is the million-dollar key to understanding and producing record-breaking high-end sales performance.

Great book but not perfect narrator

Narrator doesn’t pause at all. It makes it difficult to divide the logical blocks of the narration when one works carefully with the book. The content is very useful and practical

Where is the pdf?

I need the pdf to remember the points he made. He always implies to look for figures

Best book on sales

Honest and tangible information, as he said this is one of the few books that is not snake oil, especially for sales. As a startup founder this is good guidance!

Makes sense

Author’s words about using the skill being so much harder than just learning it are so true.

Great book missing aditional material

Every time the author said something about tables, figures, transcript’s there’s nothing to refer to. I think a pdf with this material would be a great addition for the experience
