Sales

Hi all,

I've just decided that I want to become excellent at buying, negotiating and sales. So you can consider this a formal declaration of my goal which you can keep me accountable to!

Already kicked it off today with a negotiation of £50 worth of free products in one minute. And when I say 'free products' I don't mean I actually went out to buy something to get something 'free'. Was simple phone call that I recieved on behalf of an order- (placed by someone else!)

I think the main thing in sales is to be non need and non outcome dependent. I was almost disinterested in my negotiation because the product was of no interest to me. I was pretty assertive and asked direct questions. I made the conversation short because I have other phone calls that are more important.

Having this attitude (although not as direct or assertive in certain situations) is pretty key I believe.

Up!

Take a look at this:

The stockmarket is racing ahead! And I like it :). A few months ago I made a prediction that the FTSE would be 'around 5,000' by the end of the year. Looks like I was a bit pessimistic!

Even if you don't invest in shares, there are so many ways to make money through the internet.

Good luck on your road to riches!

Playing to Win


Are you sick and tired of chess books which are full of theoretical knowledge that you never get into? Would you like to read a novel about chess which explored the gritty realism of the game?
Then Playing to Win is for you. Not only chess focused, it shows how Tom grows from boyhood to manhood with help from the game. Chess is used as a metaphor for the inward and outward struggle Tom experiences. The joys and sorrows of chess are accurately portrayed by the author who has been through these emotions himself. The novel uses chess as a metaphor for inward and outward struggle.



Tom, the hero, develops as a person through learning chess, eventually reaching the Grandmaster level, yet the book also deals with the challenges people have to face growing up. There's some tounge in cheek romance included. This novel performs the rare feat, seldom found in the game's literature, of accurately capturing the nature of the chess community and its struggle.
