Sales Gold Amidst New Orleans Jazz Brass

Whether you're on the selling side or buying side, you will find this quick read/listen educational and engaging. Simple but proven (the best kind) lessons in building profitable win-win sales relationships are woven into a story that evokes the sounds and tastes of the tapestry that is uniquely New Orleans. If you are in sales, you will find gold amidst the jazz brass. The sales process presented here is practical, easily applied, and based on respect and mutual success. I wish I had access to this information earlier in my career. For those who are more in a buying position (who isn't?), this book will show you how to deal with a top sales person. The story is entertaining and well-written (acted out by the authors if you're listening). If you are a fan of Bob Burg's or Jeff West's work, you know what to expect. This business fable exceeded my expectations. I recommend it without reservation.

Real Life Sales Techniques in a Parable

Many management and career advice / self help books are slow, boring, and difficult to follow. This is not that! It's a fun story with interesting characters and usable tips, pointers, and lessons on how to become Objection Proof.

Not just enjoyable but actionable!

I recently read "Streetwise to Saleswise: Become ObjectionProof," it's a game-changer! What sets this book apart is the perfect blend of entertainment, practical leadership lessons and sales skills. It's not another generic sales guide; it's a concise, enjoyable read that caters to both new and seasoned sales professionals, regardless of what you sell. The authors, Jeff C. West and Bob Burg, skillfully guide you through the art of handling objections, transforming skeptics into ecstatic customers. The actionable insights provided are not only valuable, but also make the learning process surprisingly enjoyable. If you want to level up your sales, this book is a must-read. Take the plunge, absorb the wisdom, and watch your objection-handling skills soar! Ready to turn doubters into clients and referring fans? Then it's time to go from "Streetwise to Saleswise"!

Excellent advice with superb examples

This book was so helpful in opening my approach to sales and marketing. I learned a lot about sales from The Go-Giver book, however this book seamlessly compliments it with examples that help you know how to put the advice into action. I loved the characters and their background stories that gave each one life. Thank you for a great read!
