  • Can you give us a little more information on what you are selling and who your target customer is? Is it an established market or are you breaking new ground? Strategies for selling to Fortune 500 companies are a lot different than those for selling to small businesses. – Karl Krantz 13 years ago

Assuming you're talking about B2B, the best sales book I ever read is hands down Jill Conrath's Selling to Big Companies.

You can get your motivational guys like the little Red Book of Sales, etc....but really if you need to know how to sell read Conrath, even if your clients are big companies.
