Updated from the first edition...Just updated..be the first to own this new sales technology.Adapt or die -as my first boss said.Your world is getting rocked.Why would anyone want to read another book touting successful selling techniques and how to sell more?

Yet are you any further ahead in your career as a salesperson? How is your close ratio? Are you earning more business or losing more business? Are you and your sales team wasting time trying to follow up on sales that just don't close? How accurate is your sales pipeline?So, what IS new here? And what would entice someone to purchase another "business success" book?The world has changed since we published the first edition of this book in 2013. There are several updates and specifically, two new chapters: channel management and technology and the sales professional.

What is prepared is a definitive guide for recruiting and selecting partners, how to onboard the partners, and continual, ongoing optimization of the partners.Technology, whew! My advisory/consulting clients suggested that a section was necessary on technology and today's business development professionals. I intended to research and provide information on the impact of CRM and other sales technology support.During the past two years, I have been utilizing marketing intelligence, campaign management, and other sales-tracking CRM software. All these tools have improved sales processes and efficiency. Then, I discovered AI and how it's impacted our work today and likely will impact how you approach business. Hang onto your hats, it's going to be a fun ride. The changes and velocity of change are incredible.

Well-intentioned leaders are inadvertently destroying innovation in their attempts to boost innovation.What if almost everything you know about creating a culture of innovation is hindering your progress? What if the way you are measuring innovation is choking it? What if your market research is focusing on the wrong metrics? It's time to innovate the way you innovate.Innovation isn't just about generating occasional new ideas; it's about staying consistently one step ahead of the competition.Best Practices Are Stupid offers forty counterintuitive yet proven strategies for boosting innovation and making it a repeatable, sustainable, and profitable process at the heart of your company's culture. They include:Hire people you don't like. Bring in the right mix of people to unleash your team's full potential.Asking for ideas is a bad idea. Instead, define challenges more clearly. If you ask better questions, you will get better answers.Don't think outside the box. Instead, find a better box. Rather than giving your employees a blank slate, provide them with well-defined parameters that will increase their creative output.Stop glorifying failure. Looking at innovation as a series of experiments allows you to redefine and minimize failure.This compact book shows that non-stop innovation is attainable and vital to building a high-performing team, improving the bottom line, and staying ahead of the pack. "Don't let its compact size-or snarky title-fool you. It's a worthwhile read. Unlike so many other books in this particular genre, it doesn't disguise otherwise straightforward concepts with overwrought explanations. Shapiro gets straight to the point with 40 often counterintuitive tips on how to strengthen your innovation muscles, served up with respect for your time and intelligence." - Jake Sorofman, Gartner Group
