This was such a good book on so many different levels beyond sales. There were so many important life lessons that if you can infer from the sales principles would lead you to success in other parts of life. I’m not really sure how anybody could rate this at anything but five stars. It’s hard to match this book in terms of bang for buck. In a span of about 150 pages in large font he hits every possible conceivable High Point with regard to sales and again, life. These are timeless lessons that will help anybody and just about any situation master anything.

I hate reading these kinds of books because I know I need to. But this book was a perfect reflection of what I am doing and not doing and where I can improve my own self worth. I found the writer both understanding and thoughtful in his process to make sure the reader was jot left with a dry experience but a colorful self evaluation experience.

Really have been ghosting this app… easy read but not my favorite

[Josh Vickerson · Rating 1 out of 5]

Got about 30 pages into it and had to stop because I felt like Hal was talking down to me. The content was certainly interesting, but rare is the book that makes me feel so frustrated. I felt as though the author assumed I'm an idiot, or perhaps just tried too hard to put everything simply. Each "point", as Hal calls them, is oversimplified and presented in an ideal that doesn't feel at all genuine. I was ultimately disappointed.
