1- The Psychology of Selling

by Brian Tracy

Kicking off with a classic, Brian Tracyโ€™s masterpiece is the bread and butter of sales books. This bad boy covers everything โ€“ from prospecting to closing the deal with flair. Tracy dives deep into what makes a customer tick and hands you the word tracks you need to navigate the sales battlefield. Itโ€™s like the sales bible that gets you inside your customerโ€™s head โ€“ a must-read for getting your sales mindset right.

2- Sell or Be Sold

by Grant Cardone

Next up, Grant Cardone throws down the gauntlet with โ€œSell or Be Sold.โ€ This book is a wake-up call for anyone whoโ€™s ever felt guilt for selling. Cardone flips the script on the sales game, showing you how to own your role with pride. Itโ€™s about making you realize that every interaction is a sale, and itโ€™s your job to come out on top. Get ready for a mental makeover thatโ€™ll make you see every โ€œnoโ€ as another step to โ€œyes.โ€

3- ABCโ€™$ of Closing

by Yours Truly

Penned by the most handsome author in the sales world (hint: itโ€™s me), this book is the treasure map to closing deals like a boss. I lay out over 30 different closes, giving you the exact words to conquer every objection. This isnโ€™t just a book; itโ€™s your sales playbook.

4- The Compound Effect

by Darren Hardy

Darren Hardyโ€™s โ€œThe Compound Effectโ€ is about the long game. Itโ€™s the reality check you need to understand that success in sales (and life) comes from those tiny, consistent efforts that add up over time. Think of it as the guide to building momentum, one door knock at a time. This book will reshape how you view your daily grind, proving that every little action is a building block to your empire.

5- The Art of Closing The Sale

by Brian Tracy

Bringing it full circle, we return to the wisdom of Brian Tracy with โ€œThe Art of Closing The Sale.โ€ If Tracyโ€™s first book got you in the door, this one seals the deal. Itโ€™s a deep dive into mastering the sales process, from setting the perfect pitch to handling objections like a pro. Tracyโ€™s insights are the polish you need to shine in any sales situation.

Wrapping Up My Top Five Must-Reads

Think of these five books as your blueprint, bible, and best friends on the journey to sales greatness. Whether youโ€™re taking your first steps in the door to door world or a seasoned vet looking to hone your skills, these reads are your ticket to climbing the sales Olympus.

So, hit the books, absorb the wisdom, and letโ€™s get ready to knock on those doors with newfound confidence and strategy. Knowledge is not just power; itโ€™s your secret weapon in the relentless sales world.

Letโ€™s go FULL SEND and Happy selling!

Sam Taggart

I knocked doors since I was 11! Never bought into the whole hourly normal job, and used direct sales to be the vehicle to create MASSIVE success. I Started the Direct Sales division for Solcius as their VP building it up to have 70+ sales reps nation wide. In 2018 I left to pursue a greater mission to unify and uplevel the Door to Door industry and founded the D2D Experts.
