Top 10 Sales Books

Learning how to sell is one of the most important skills to have in business. To me, selling is not only one-sided - it is finding a need and filling it by creating win/win situations. (By the way, if you're also interested in the topic of "negotiation" check out this link).

Let's face it - most people don't like to sell. Whenever I hear this, I always remember the old saying:

"People don't like to be sold. But, they love to buy."

If people don't like to be sold but love to buy, then how do we sell? Simple. Don't.

Again, to me selling is simply finding a need and filling it. So, what you need to do is find a need (i.e. people who need your products and/or services) and fill that need. That's all there is to it.

I've learned the art of selling by simply reading books on the subject and applying what I've learned - it's more of an art than an exact science. At first, it doesen't come easy. But, with a little practice it becomes natural.
