A classic book for the sales practitioner! 14 Mar 2007
By David Klepinger - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book is in it's 7th printing and it is a gem! I am currently working with one of the world's largest software companies on a process that they call Value Engineering. While it is more refined than the process that Mr. Hanan describes, he is definitely the original thought leader around delivering measurable value to the customer. I highly recommend this to anyone that is looking to get beyond the "mushy" superlatives that salespeople like to throw around. It gives you the formula on how to build a powerful business case and deliver it to the right stakeholder! If you are in the sales game you need to read this book.

Too Much Repetition 24 May 2007
By Red Pill - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Good information for anybody in sales, and probably worth the price of the book, but I found it to be very repetitive. "Vendors sell like this, but Consultative Sellers sell like that." Then I skipped a few chapters ahead - same thing. I'm an independent consultant who has recently added a couple of product lines, so I'm new to product sales. I personally like Alan Weiss's books, especially Million Dollar Consulting or The Ultimate Consultant, which explains the same philosophy - sell results to the client, not your product - but has more details about how to do it. Save yourself some time and read one of Weiss's books and apply it to your sales.

Value selling for todays' buyer driven world. 2 May 2011
By Reg Nordman - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
I first read Mack Hanan many years ago and have used his approach ever since. I was delighted to receive his latest book from Amacom. As part of my ongoing research into value pricing I was interested to see what Mack had to say on this topic. Well it is a lot. This is likely the most complete sales book that is based on value pricing and explains what we call value based selling. He has remained true since 1970 to stating that sales main goal is improving customer profits and margins. So this book is full of great examples and studies of how and where to use value selling. I strongly suggest that if you are serious about being a successful sales person or having an effective sales organization in today's buyer driven world you get and carefully read this latest book by Mack.

Instead of professing added value, they propose it in quantified, time-framed terms, measuring it milestone by milestone, selling it, being evaluated on it, and being paid for it. &quote;
