Top 30 Valuable Lessons from the Book
You Can Sell
By Shiv Khera
You Can Sell addresses time-tested principles which make a successful sales professional. The word used is ‘principles’ and not ‘tactics’. Because tactics are manipulative whereas principles are based on the foundation of integrity. Many times you hear people saying that to succeed you need to learn the ‘tricks of the trade’. This is not true. This book is different! Good professionals learn the trade, and that’s what YOU CAN SELL is all about! Become Unstoppable and Sell Your Way to Success.
