Story4.5 out of 5 stars 928
People don't buy from people they like. No! Your buyer doesn't care about you or your product or service. It's not your job to overcome objections, it's your buyer's. Closing isn't a skill of good salespeople; it's the skill of weak salespeople. Price isn't the main reason salespeople lose the sale. Gap Selling shreds traditional and closely held sales beliefs that have been hurting salespeople for decades. For years, salespeople have embraced a myriad of sales tactics and belief systems that have unknowingly created many of the issues they have been trying to avoid.

This Is Marketing shows you how to do work you're proud of, whether you're a tech start-up founder, a small-business owner, or part of a large corporation. Great marketers don't use consumers to solve their company's problem; they use marketing to solve other people's problems. Their tactics rely on empathy, connection, and emotional labor instead of attention-stealing ads. When done right, marketing seeks to make change in the world.

Every marketer tells a story. And if they do it right, we believe them. We believe that wine tastes better in a $20 glass than a $1 glass. We believe that an $80,000 Porsche Cayenne is vastly superior to a $36,000 VW Touareg, which is virtually the same car. We believe that $225 Pumas will make our feet feel better, and look cooler, than $20 no-names... and believing it makes it true.

Eventually every job and every business will become irrelevant. According to Jason Jennings, the past few decades have seen unprecedented shifts: former third-world nations have transformed themselves into high-tech manufacturing powerhouses; technology has democratized business and increased competition in ways never before seen; and customers, used to getting exactly what they want when they want it, are no longer beholden to the corporate giants.

In Silicon Valley slang, a "bozo explosion" is what causes a lean, mean, fighting machine of a company to slide into mediocrity. As Guy Kawasaki puts it, "If the two most popular words in your company are partner and strategic, and partner has become a verb, and strategic is used to describe decisions and activities that don't make sense"...then it's time for a reality check.

I'm not a car dealer and I still found this good
I love it when the authors of the ones performing the audiobook. They typically are more passionate, engaging, and enjoyable to listen to since they truly know what they're talking about. This book is no exception.
I listened to these guys speak at a marketing conference which led me to this book. I'm not even a car dealer and I found this to be a great resource. I can only imagine how mind blowing this would be for a car dealership. I know a couple of them and will most certainly recommend this book to them.

A sales pitch for their service. An infomercial.
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
This could have been really useful if they gave more useful tips. The book has the feeling of freeware. The talk about the problem, talk about how great they are, give a few tiny tidbits about what you can do, then suggest you contact a RICH advisor to learn more about their services. It would have been much better if they spent much more time about giving specific examples of what dealers did instead of saying "Dealer X says Jimmy and Travis are great".
Has Invasion of the Profit Snatchers turned you off from other books in this genre?
I paid to listen to a commercial.
Would you be willing to try another one of Travis Miller and Jimmy Vee ’s performances?
No.
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Invasion of the Profit Snatchers?
Half the chapters could have been cut.
