Michael R. Drew, marketing expert and author of "Pendulum: How Past Generations Shape Our Present and Predict Our Future," announces the availability of his latest eBook "The #1 Way to Increase Your Close Rate: Define What You Stand Against" (Amazon download link). Throwing conventional marketing and sales tactics out the window, including the concept of unique selling propositions, Mr. Drew suggests that the most important thing for a company to do is to stand out from the crowd. He says the best way to do that is to define what the company is not, or "What You Stand Against."
From Monday, April 8 through Wednesday, April 10, The #1 Way to Increase Your Close Rate: Define What You Stand Against will be available for free download on Amazon.com.
Mr. Drew further explains that making this a bold statement by risking offending a few people is what leaves a lasting impression. As he writes in his eBook, "The risk of insult is the price of clarity, as my co-author Roy H. Williams counsels. While clarity can make the difference between failure and success in business, few are willing to pay this price. Are you in this to 'not offend' or are you in this to win?"
Drawing upon the concepts outlined in the book he wrote with Roy H. Williams, "Pendulum: How Past Generations Shape Our Present and Predict Our Future," Mr. Drew offers readers further tips to reach their audience and their customers in honest, credible and meaningful ways.
"The #1 Way to Increase Your Close Rate" was the subject of a recent news story on Cranberry - R.I.P. - The Unique Selling Proposition is Dead.
