Years ago, developing and sustaining a book of business was not as big a problem for accountants, attorneys, financial planners, and other professionals as it is today. Clients were more loyal to the firms they worked with, and unlikely to shop your services, compare rates, or jump ship. Times have changed! And if you don't change along with them...well, you're not going to enjoy yourself or have as much control over your career as you deserve. Believe it or not, you can enjoy the process of expanding your client base. 

Selling to homeowners is different - and challenging. To succeed in this environment, you need the Sandler Selling System. Selling to Homeowners the Sandler Way shows how the Sandler Selling System delivers career-changing results for salespeople who close deals in the buyer's personal, private domestic space. This kind of selling applies to dozens of industries, from remodeling to insurance.  

Prospect the Sandler Way shares 30 core principles for mastering stress-free lead development by phone and over the Internet, in accordance with the selling system developed by David H. Sandler.  Includes updated strategies on 21st-century topics like conducting effective online pre-call research, and using LinkedIn to generate referrals.

When does the sales process really begin? Some say that sales starts at the very first "hello". Everything before that first critical opening word, these people say, is marketing; everything after that is sales. Others say that the real work of sales doesn't begin till the prospect first says, "No". "Otherwise", they insist, "it's just order-taking". Antonio Garrido's Asking Questions the Sandler Way rejects both of those answers. It holds that selling begins when you start asking good questions.
