Abstract:
"In Mastering the Complex Sale, Thull presents the Prime Process, a new business paradigm that gives you a solid system, as well as unique skills and the mental discipline needed to execute it. The Prime Process is a diagnostic, customer-centered approach that clearly sets you apart from your competition and positions you with respect and credibility as a valued and trusted advisor." "It's a smarter way to sell and it raises the bar for all sales methodologies. In fact, it's not just about selling - it's about making quality business decisions. This book will show you how to position yourself as a source of competitive advantage to your customers. It creates trust rather than suspicion, cooperation rather than confrontation, and the most formidable barrier of all to your competition - customer loyalty."--BOOK JACKET.
