| Book Excerpts:
Every idea advanced in this book
has one objective in view: your
interest. Will it stimulate you?
Will it instruct you? Will it
inspire you? Will it increase your
understanding? Will it contribute to
your growth? Will it help you to
be a bigger man and a better
salesman?
Creative selling is both a
science and an art. The science
teaches you what to do, and the art
teaches you how to do it. Creative
selling is the ability and art of
increasing the satisfaction of the
prospect by convincing him that the
thing you want him to buy will best
fulfill his needs and desires.
In fact, it is creating a want
that did not exist before.
Creative selling is an individual
accomplishment. It embraces you and
the power within you to think and to
create. These qualities and
attributes are individual, and no
one but
you can develop them.
Therefore, my purpose is to help
you to develop them by drawing on
the latent forces within you. During
the past 42 years it has been my
good fortune to
talk to thousands of people in all
kinds of business, in all walks of
life, in all kinds of places, and
under all conditions.
In that time, I have sold both
tangibles and intangibles by every
conceivable selling method. I have
been able to combine first-hand
knowledge with experience and to
make a first-hand study of the
actions and reactions of people. I
have studied their behavior, and
this has given me an insight into
their temperaments, dispositions,
ambitions, aspirations, attitudes,
likes, dislikes, wants, and desires.
Combining all this information, I
have incorporated the best parts of
it in this book.
The Power of Creative Selling is
more than a book. It is an entirely
new plan of selling, setting forth
proven methods for creating more
sales, earning a larger income, and
enjoying more peace of mind. It is
not the work of a theorist in an
Ivory Tower, but of a stern realist
who has encountered all the problems
and heartaches that you are
encountering, and who has solved
many of the situations that are
perplexing you at this very moment.
In my years of experience,
combined with reading, analyzing,
and researching, I have learned what
is necessary to influence people to
buy—plus what it takes to keep them
as friends.
It is impossible to put in the
Introduction the many things this
book can do for you. To do so would
be to incorporate the context
itself, because every page has a
message. If you will read what
follows and apply to your own life
the powerful principles set forth,
you will have a workable plan of
creative selling that will really
get results and enable you to sell
anything.
