Today’s social media-oriented climate has redefined the way people communicate and
interact. It’s also changed the way buyers operate in the marketplace. Unfortunately, as a whole, sales professionals have been slow to embrace the new technology.
Social Selling is now becoming a way of life, but are you as a sales professional keeping up? BUY the book on Amazon.com. Also available in Kindle.
In The New Handshake: Sales Meets Social Media, coauthors Giamanco and Curtis present Sales 2.0, a significant expansion from selling via the traditional face-to-face or telephone sales methods. The book begins by examining the impact of the communication revolution on sales as well as the history of selling.
It contains case examples that justify incorporating social media in business.
The final chapters of the book describe each social network, explain how they work, and create a road map for a social media sales strategy—including how to empower salespeople to overcome their resistance to change.
