“We set out to write a book that could make all us Johnnies better sales people—and now you hold the results of that desire in your hands. Who should be reading it? Sales executives and managers who want to build a better team, CEOs who want to better understand why their Johnnys can’t sell, sales people who want to sell more and get (back) on top, and the maverick salesperson who simply needs more ideas on how to drive his or her sales manager crazy.”—From the Introduction

In the competitive world of sales, organizations and managers have long bought into popular methodologies, exposing sales teams to a multitude of new approaches in the hopes of capitalizing on the next hot thing. But while many things work in the short term, no success seems to last.

3OK Book  Jan 01, 2008
This book is Ok but I don't think it has given me any new insights into selling and it is perhaps just a little silly.

5A Great Sales Mentor Handbook  Oct 18, 2007
Why Johnny Can't Sell does a brilliant job of breaking down sales barriers into extremely simple causes and further suggests both tactical and strategic approaches to remedy poor sales habits or lack of sales strategy. This easy to digest sales guide is a must for sales managers and sales coaches looking to implement an immediate step to improve organizational sales performance.

3The value is in the beginning  Aug 05, 2007
This book and the valuable message is what kind of sale cycle are you in, complex or simple. Get this right and everything else flows from there. I started off the read engaged and then had to force myself to finish as all the valuable reminders were upfront. If you are new to sales, this is a good read but the experienced service sales person will find it to be a nice reminder.

5Great Material For A Complex Subject  Apr 09, 2007
An excellent book for describing the processes required for successful complex sales. The mix of simple theory with useful practical advice, coupled with the worksheets, together provide a well defined roadmap that sales organizations, managers as well as those on the line, can exploit for making their sales activities more effective and predictable.

The book's Resources section is extremely useful, and in my view is well worth the price of the book by itself.

It is oriented towards relatively large sales organizations, although the same precepts and exercises are useful to small companies who are willing to make the effort and investment in scaling down certain portions for their own not-so-large companies.

5Great insight into what people need to be effective selling  Dec 13, 2006
Michael Nick and Robert Kantin have done an excellent job identifying the issues that sales people have in their ability to do their job and why often they can't.

This book is a great eye opener for management to look inward into their own organizations and assess whether or not they are part of the problem or solution.

This is a great read and insightful. Kudo's to Michael and Robert for another winner.
