Product ReviewsHow I Raised Myself from Failure to Success in Selling by Frank Bettger (1992, Trade Paperback)

The most helpful, character building book I have read

Bettger is so helpful because he has no reservations about telling us about his failures. Too often other such books give the impression that the author is a man of steel,unfailingly successful, and victorious.

He failed several times, and tells us about what he did to raise himself out of the dust. He tells us WHAT to do, and even better, HOW to do it. His advice is unfailingly sound, practical, and best of all, easy to follow. It also pays handsome dividends, because following his advice creates success.

I recommend it to anyone who needs to improve him/herself. And that means all of us.Read full review...

Great Sales Book!

Frank Bettger really went deep in explaining how he rose from a failure to a successful insurance salesman.

Although the book was written in the late 40's, the tips and advice he offered will still work today with the sales professional who applies what he said. Again, great book and it's worth reading twice or more times.Read full review...

Real success

Unlike many other books that claim to teach you how to sell, Mr. Bettger's book does it! It's an easy read, and the lessons are even easier to apply.

Mr. Bettger talks to the reader about his career as a professional baseball player, his failing efforts to get a job as a shipping clerk, all the while weaving in tales of how he failed then became one of America's top insurance salesman.

Although now out of print, this is the one book that should be mandatory reading for all sales forces. And everyone is a sales person!Read full review...
