My Take on the Book 
This book is a book that tells it like it is. The book itself is full of great insights into sales and what someone must do to make a sale. The book though is more than just a sell, sell, sell mantra, it actually goes step-by-step on the things that are important if you are to build a thriving practice / business / career. I liked the fact that the book does go into things like: Finding the Right People, and Finding out What Customers Want, as I truly believe that these points are very valid in almost any field that you work within.

All-in-all, this was a great book and one that I would recommend!
