 Rating:  - Best Book Ever Helping you Connect in Business!This is an awesome book for those who are in sales, or even just want a better way to connect to people. It has an honest approach to networking and how to get to yes! Great Book! Rating:  - Basic Networking Self-help For The Aspiring Sales ProfessionalThis book is a polarizing little volume. Note that the people who review this book who like it generally put one or more exclamation points in their review titles. This thin little tome is basically a rehash of the concepts first espoused by Norman Vincent Peale's "How to Win Friends..." many years ago, jazzed up for the new millenium. Like others have mentioned, there is a bit of upsell pointing people to Gitomer's website, in many respects, it's a glossy infomercial. ...

Ironic, since Gitomer says you need to offer value to others in order to connect. The repetition and lack of focus lead you to wonder if you actually learned anything at all after reading it. Actually, I was thinking that as I was reading it. Anyway, the book just keeps repeating itself and doesn't seem to go anywhere. Just read pages 25-31, the "Rules of Connecting", ...

Jeffrey's unique charisma, his trademark style, the excellent graphic and the valuable information, make this book a great networking tool. Recomended! |
