Evan Sanchez

Lack of sales results and performance gaps are typically addressed with more skills training, more product or service knowledge, and perhaps the latest customer relationship management (CRM) system. While these are important, it is not enough. If it was, we would not see such a wide gap between the top performers and the core. Sixty percent of all sales are made by the top 10% in sales. Evan Sanchez delivers the winning mindsets, insights and solutions he uses to raise performance at some of the most successful companies in the world. The book’s modular format allows readers to grab quick insights to springboard performance. Readers will benefit from the many tools, assessments, and coaching tips for direct application. The winning mindset will provide transformational steps to develop and sustain high levels of confidence and ambition through positive beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors. Evan Sanchez teaches company leaders, sales representatives and even non-sales oriented professionals how to thrive in business as they build the mindset for success in life and in business. Sell like a Champ will soon be a must-read for high-performance individuals and teams and put the smack down on sales chumps!

Stu Heinecke

Sales and marketing teams are told to fill the funnel, increase revenues, and move the needle on market share—then left to their own devices to penetrate their assigned accounts and prospects.  It’s a gap in many companies’ go-to-market strategies that is easily filled with “Contact Marketing,” a concept introduced by Stu Heinecke, best-selling author of How to Get a Meeting with Anyone.  In the book, Heinecke details twenty categories of Contact Marketing campaign types that have generated response rates as high as 100% and ROI figures in the tens, even hundreds of thousands of percent.  Heinecke, a hall of fame-nominated marketer and one of The Wall Street Journal cartoonists, has used his cartoons for years to break through to presidents, prime ministers, celebrities and countless C-level executives and top decision makers.  Others have used pigeons, social media, research, swords, personalized videos, contact letters run as full-page ads in The Wall Street Journal, media exposure and so much more.  Thousands have reported great leaps in sales productivity from reading How to Get a Meeting with Anyone.  Now it’s your turn to join the movement and expand your scale.

Joanne Sonenshine

On a career path that one could only call circuitous, Joanne Sonenshine learned that what fulfilled her the most was, in many cases, the opposite of what she had originally planned for her journey. The tragedy that struck America on September 11, 2001 changed how she saw her life and her role in the world. It also changed what she thought she wanted in her career. With new priorities, she made some serious course corrections, and pointed herself toward fulfillment – a more complicated and subjective path, but ultimately more rewarding. Now, with the perspective of hindsight, Sonenshine has condensed her (and others’) experiences into ChangeSeekers, a call to everyone who wants to make a difference and find their path to impact. Her message: always question where you are headed and why. Take risks, explore creativity, find new ways of adding experience and relationships to your life. Question authority. Be curious, be brave, and find your passion.

This is a special book with a special agenda that I reveal in just a moment. But before I do that, let me give you the lay of the land. First of all, this book is all about business. At its core, this book teaches business thinking for business people in all industries. No matter what your field is, try to think broadly when reading this material in order to absorb and apply it to your life in the best possible way. Secondly, the material in this book is generally geared towards advanced (meaning more financially successful) professionals because those are the people with existing momentum who can use this material to propel themselves to the next level—but again, all professionals at any level can highly benefit from the tips and tricks in this book. All are welcome here! This book is made up of 101+ “tricks of the trade”, grouped into sections based on the concepts and principles I have used throughout my career for building businesses. Each of these insights is a piece of business wisdom – some of which I use every day. Some insights help me regularly, while some are strategies that I put to use only when I start a new, substantial endeavor, which does not happen too often. Each insight could be a white paper or even a stand-alone book, but the purpose of this collection is simply to create an awareness of the many principles, best practices, methods, mindsets, and tricks of the trade available to you as you build your own “money-making machine”. My goal is not to take a deep dive into the details of each element because either alone or through collaboration with others, you will figure it out. That is what resourceful people do. Warning: Do not try to implement all of these insights at once. Pick a few and work on them first. Then, over time, add a few more. This is not designed to be quick and easy. You are going to have to work on it to gain mastery. But the effort will be worthwhile.
