Book Description

Ever struggled to make your follow-up email to your sales appointment say something more meaningful than "thank you for meeting"? Have trouble getting a prospect to commit to more than, "Email me some information on that, and I'll take a look"? How do you introduce yourself as the new BD manager when the inactive account doesn't even remember your company name? So what do you put in your proposal cover letter that hasn't already been said in the full proposal? If these issues present problems when you sit down to write a customer or prospect, you're not alone. But if you're a sales professional or entrepreneur, then you know that writing letters and emails to your prospects and clients can be your most powerful sales tool. But is it? Really?
