Become a winner with the system Joe Girard developed and shares with you in this book. Now you can learn to: read a customer like a book and keep that customer for life, change people by selling them the right way, develop priceless information from a two-minute phone call, make word-of-mouth your most effective selling tool, make direct mail work for you, close a deal and make a friend. It's all here in the book that Lowell Thomas proclaims "A KNOCKOUT!"

How does a shoeshine boy, a high school dropout from Detroit, become the "World's Greatest Salesman" (according to the `Guinness Book of World Records') and hold that title for 12 consecutive years? Joe Girard, the author of this lively autobiography plus sales manual, did it by learning the basic tenets of car sales and then - through instinct, hard work and trial-and-error - improving each tactic. He devoted himself to bringing prospects in the door and converting them into life-long customers. Girard shares his selling techniques in a short, easy-to-understand, step-by-step book that has helped thousands of people increase their sales. You'll learn how to make cold calls, build customer profiles and client lists, bring in prospects and close the deal. The vernacular is somewhat dated, but the sales techniques are timeless. This classic has a place as a well-thumbed resource in any salesperson's library.
