The government and all of its respective agencies are in a war to spend more and more money. With policies like “use it or lose it” and our military industrial complex, it’s no wonder why we’ve have been on a spending tear since World War II. To make matters more attractive to small businesses (as defined by Small Business Administration rules), the United States is consistently spending huge sums of money with new suppliers.

In many ways, success at networking is the uncommon application of common knowledge. Most people understand that networking is important to their success - they just lack a step-by-step process to get the results they want. Almost no one really implements a comprehensive methodology that will build a business through networking. Thus, the need to network is "common knowledge", and the development of the methodology required to be successful at it is the "uncommon application". By listening to this audiobook, you will experience the true essence and meaning of networking.

The traditional business model dictates that marketers own the message while sellers own the relationships. But now, Jantsch flips the usual sales approach on its head. It's no longer enough to view a salesperson's job as closing. Today's superstars must attract, teach, convert, serve, and measure while developing a personal brand that stands for trust and expertise.

Enter the age of the empowered buyer, one who no longer has to rely on a sales rep to research their challenges or learn more about how a company’s offering might fit their needs.

Enter the age of the empowered buyer, one who no longer has to rely on a sales rep to research their challenges or learn more about how a company’s offering might fit their needs. Now, with more than 60 percent of purchasing decisions made in the absence of a sales rep, the role of the rep itself has been called into question.

The power of glitzy advertising and elaborate marketing campaigns is on the wane; word- of-mouth referrals are what drive business today.
