About this listen

A manifesto of business practices for those who sell ideas and advice, The Win Without Pitching Manifesto lays out 12 steps - in the form of proclamations - that owners of creative businesses can take to distance themselves from their competition, regain the high ground in their client relationships and learn to win business without first parting with their thinking or writing lengthy proposals. The 12 proclamations were written to inspire owners of independent creative businesses (e.g.: design firms and advertising agencies) to rethink how their services are bought and sold. Anyone who sells ideas or advice will find relevance in these teachings.

Deeply, deeply insightful. I listened to it twice in 2 days. Professional designers, writers and strategists will have multiple "a ha" moments throughout the course of this efficient book.

For owners of creative firms, this is a must read.

This book has very good points on how to position your business and expertise against the marketplace as a high value consultancy. It is leaning towards the creatives, but having that insight into the industry just makes it all the more fascinating.

Very well written and concisely written rules to go by especially in the selling process. There were trinkets of example scenarios of how he would engage with the client. I only wish more of that was infused, but I think that was done purposefully in order for the reader to think for themselves.

Overall, I enjoyed the listen and I will be seeking out more of Blair's work as I found great value on his insights.

Great insights!

A brilliant book at a vital time in my creative agency of 18 months. Feel enthused to put these 12 proclamations into practice and also see how it flows to all of life. True wisdom.

Thanks to Blair and all who contributed.

Time to get to work with my head held high.

Amazing insights into my own versus the desired mindset. They call on your designer/creative BS so accurately. I recommend to anyone who wants their agency to be expert and top in the world

short but amazing

As an entrepreneur in the creative industries with a creative background this books feels like an antidote for every bad habit and insecurity I have. Will probably read it a dozen times!!
