Anthony Iannarino

One of the primary differences between those who are successful and those who struggle to create the results they profess to want in their life is their view of who and what prevents them.

Anthony Iannarino

This isn’t a post to suggest you should never discount or give your client some concession when you negotiate. To do so would be to commit a form of sales malpractice. It would be to offer advice that says there are times when it makes sense to negotiate, especially when you have an opportunity to create greater value for your client and your company, something that is possible when both sides are willing to collaborate with that goal in mind.

Anthony Iannarino

Selling is a series of conversations and commitments. The more effective you are at having the necessary conversations and gaining commitments, the easier it is for you to win big deals.

New Beliefs, New Knowledge, New Actions, and New Results

Anthony Iannarino

In the last few weeks, I have been confronted with two posts on LinkedIn , both suggesting that there is no value in reading books, least of all books written by people in their fifth decade of life. I was more offended by the advice that one shouldn’t read books than I was the public display of ageism, especially considering recent events.
