The One Minute Salesperson

The catchy title made me pick up this book. Having found myself at a middle-aged, downsized crossroads, I realized I needed to better understand money and how it works in the world. While cruising the business book aisle at my local library, I came across this powerful little gem.
It is concise, reader-friendly for most every age, and filled to the gills with practical information. While it clearly targets the sales profession, I have found the techniques can be very successfully applied toward achieving virtually any goal. It has helped me define new interests which have created a new income, and even lose a few unwanted pounds! Can't beat that!
