Mike Wicks
How Not to Sell
Why You Can't Close the Deal and How to Fix It (The How Not to Succeed Series)
HarperCollins Leadership, 2020
Aperçu
People are always telling salespeople what to do. Instead, Mike Wicks tells you what not to do.
Recommendation
Mike Wicks spells out in detailed lists what salespeople must not do if they wish to succeed. His unconventional sales book has much to offer. Proactive salespeople who review his lists will do well. However, some of his warnings are silly. For example, how many salespeople need to be told not to style their hair into a Mohawk? Dedicated salespeople should heed Wicks’ more sensible advice – and there’s plenty of that – to build sales by avoiding complexity and common mistakes.
