Sell
like a girl™is a book about how to succeed in sales in a man’s
world. Jeanne Worrick has lived that for the past 20 years and is
now letting women in on the secret that ALL women share. Unfortunately, so much of what we know goes unvalidated
in the business world. To begin with, the whole paradigm of corporate
America was established by men for men and forces women spend a lot of
energy just trying to fit into a culture that is foreign to the way they think and feel.
Yes, we are great at adapting, since we’ve always been the
ones that have had to adapt, but it takes energy. Energy that could and should be channeled
in more creative, fulfilling ways.
You may not think that you have the "personality"
or the "assertiveness" needed to be in sales, but I bet
you're wrong. If you want a career that will give you the flexibility to make your own hours and give you time for your personal life, whether it be children or skydiving (both equally challenging) AND pay you commensurate
with your ability, then you must read "sell like a girl" and
discover how much you already know.
Sell like a girl is not a typical "How To" book. It's a "You Go Girl" kind of story, part memoir, part motivational tool written with ALL women in mind. For those of you who need more guidance, Chapter 10 is entitled "Twelve Rules For Women in Sales" and here are a few of the rules:
1. Follow the path of least resistance.
2. Go easy on yourself.
3. Sales books written by and for
men don't always apply to women.
BACK COVER
Don’t be discouraged
by the status quo of testosterone selling. You can be yourself
and succeed. If you want to earn more money and still have balance
in your life, then read this book. Finally, a book for women
in by a woman in sales.
