Excerpts

When a career counselor first recommended I consider a job in sales, I looked down at my tailored suit and mentally reviewed my makeup and jewelry, trying to pinpoint what made him think I was sleazy. I ranked salespeople just behind ambulance chasers on my ethical scale. Why would anyone want such a job? The obvious answer, according to that same counselor, was "For the money!" Praise for Selling with Soul Selling with Soul validates what it took me over thirty years to learn; the ability to establish an emotional connection is what separates superstar sellers from those struggling to make their numbers. — Michael Bosworth, thought-leader and founder of Solution Selling, CustomerCentric Selling, and StoryLeaders LLC Sharon Parker learned how to add 'human value' to her work life, how to make it consistent with the person she is, and make her career more satisfying. Selling with Soul is an excellent guidebook for anyone in business, no matter what your position or career path, who wants to do the same. — Don H. Davis Jr., chairman and CEO of Rockwell All of us sell, regardless of our job titles. Sharon Parker shows how it is possible to do it well, without sacrificing integrity.
