High Profit Prospecting By Mark Hunter, A Book Review. And Excellent Sales Prospecting Book.

High Profit Prospecting By Mark Hunter. A Book Review By Claude Whitacre. Sales Prospecting Book I Recommend Reading

Books on sales prospecting have to have some similar content, because they are covering the same specific subject. So, if you are an experienced salesperson, and have read a dozen books on prospecting, you’ll see some familiar territory. But that just means that great minds think alike.

There is much in this book, however that sets it apart from the others (on sales prospecting) I’ve read. For example, on page 30 (of the paperback edition) Mark Hunter says that one huge mistake that sales teams make, is failing to gather sales and marketing ideas from other industries. This may be missed with a quick reading, but it’s one of the most powerful ideas I’ve seen in a book on the subject of selling.

You see, other industries have proven ways to gather clients and customers. And it’s highly likely you are completely unaware of them. For example, in my business, I have 71 separate ways I get new clients. How many of these came from my core industry? One. Just one. Studying other industries for their strategies is about the most profitable thing you can do in non-selling time.

For example, that new idea on getting customers that you just heard about from a Guru? It’s almost certainly being used very profitably, right now, in a different industry than the one you are in. And on page 32, the author has designed a very good set of thirty tactical questions that will help you measure your prospecting process. I’ve seen a few similar questions on advanced books on marketing, but never in a book on sales prospecting. This is new stuff. Highly instructive.

Page 56 gives the two most profitable sources of highly likely buyers you’ll ever find. I won’t spoil it for you. But I bet you never thought of the second one.

Page 70 has a question to ask a prospect, to see if they are an actual…viable ..qualified prospect…or a suspect. I’ve never seen this before, and am going to use it myself. And on the very next page, Mark talks about price, and why it should never be a part of prospecting . His argument is credible and certainly made sense.

Claude Whitacre has over 40 years of direct sales experience. In that time, he has trained hundreds of salespeople He is the author of six books on the subject of selling, as well as hundreds of articles. He has spoken to over 200 audiences across the US on how to how to find highly likely prospects and closing in one sales call.

Retiring in 2022 from actively selling, Claude wanted to give back to the sales and marketing fields by teaching the strategies and techniques that have proven so effective in his own selling.
One of the many strategies and practices Claude implemented over the decades is working with over 200 top salespeople on real sales appointments, in 71 different industries. He would work with them for a day, prospecting and going on sales appointments, with them. Then they would work with him in the field for a day. Eventually, Claude determined that about 98% of everything he used in his own selling was actually learned from top salespeople outside of his own core industry.

To pay forward what Claude has learned, he wanted to give salespeople the opportunity to benefit from what he did....learn from the best salespeople, experts, sales authors, and trainers from all over the country.
This podcast is that effort.

Claude has videos and articles on the following subjects.
Sales prospecting, cold calling, referral prospecting, social selling, referral selling, sales prospecting training, referral prospecting training, sales prospecting techniques, how to get the best referrals, how to cold call strategically, best cold calling techniques, sales training, best closing techniques, answering sales objections, and one call closing.
