The Greatest Salesman in the World (1995, Paperback, Reissue)

I bought the book The Greatest Salesman in the World by Og Mandino a few weeks ago. I read it in one sitting. It is a small paperback book that suited me because I am a very busy person with a home candle business. It was suggested on a forum I belong to that this was a very inspiring book.

I liked the idea of a small paperback book that I could carry with me and read wherever I went as my time is very limited. At first I thought it was just going to be another one of those religious books because it talked about the ancient scrolls and such. But boy was I wrong. This is a classic and anyone who is in network marketing or has a home business should read it.

This is honestly one of the best sales books ever written. Before you even buy the book, just open it up to one of the Scrolls. Read the scroll and you will be absolutely hooked.

To be totally honest, I haven't read this entire book. But what I have done, is read each one of the scrolls. I have read them, memorized them, envisioned them and have used them to carry me through the extreme ups and down of being a door to door salesman...for FIVE long years. I have read at least one scroll almost every single day.

It is a great motivational book, but more importantly, it is an amazing book when you've had every door slammed in your face. No one needs motivation when you are on top of the world, but you need something by your side to remind you who you are, and the unbelievable potential that you have.

This book does just that. Get it now when you don't need it, because you will. ;) Happy Selling!

This is one of the best motivational sales books on the market. It is a great read and a very easy, and quick read. One of the best parts of the entire book are the Scrolls in the middle. There are a total of 10 of the scrolls and you can read one each day and you will become the most motivated person you have ever thought possible.

This book is an absolute MUST for anyone that is in sales or considering sales or wants to have a better life. Definitely recommended.

It is a great story, first of all and the scrolls are good, positive statements of action. I also had the honor of meeting and photographing Og on several occasions and also meeting his wonderful wife Bette and one of their sons, Matt.It was time for me to read it again.

I love the simiplicity of how the book is written. It is a wonderful guide not just for salesman but for anyone who is interesting in starting a business or a new endeavor.
