Summary

Professionals who work with clients or large accounts can create lifetimerelationships based on these well-researched secrets. Based drawing fromextensive interviews with client executives, Making Rain offers a series of provocative insights on how to shed the expert-for-hire label and developlong-term advisory relationships. Exploding the popular myth of the "Rainmaker," a dated and dysfunctional figure that clients no longer welcome, Andrew Sobel argues that any professional can learn to "make rain" on an ongoing basis with existing clients by developing a special set of skills, attitudes, and strategies. These innovative tips and techniques from a recognized leader in the field of professional services will enable any consultant, salesperson, or service professional to create enduring client loyalty.
