80% of Salespeople Fail the 1st Year…
The Selling Gap Book will keep you in the 20% that survive and prosper.
From the Desk of Greg Deal
Fargo, North Dakota
Greetings,
I have a confession to make! I almost didn’t make my first anniversary. Six months into the job, my boss sat me
down and said “It’s been six months, I am not going to lose money keeping you on board. Either sell something or there’s the door!
Don’t let it hit you in the A**!"
I had a wife and kid to support! I was out of my mind!
I kept telling myself:
IT doesn’t have to be this HARD!
Imagine learning sales the hard way. A small company without a training program, sales process, or an
established client base. I found out that it can be easy if you have the tools in your
toolbox.
Harlan Goerger and I want to show you the shortcuts, gaining you a competitive edge. We wrote the book
“The Selling Gap” just for you! We’re going to make it easy for you to see your first anniversary, or even your
tenth anniversary!
I LOVE SELLING!
Nothing offers more freedom, higher income, and personal satisfaction of helping other people get what they want out of life than the career
called Sales. I want to help you enjoy Selling as much as I do. It's easy!
"The Selling Gap" offers you 21st Century Selling Strategies that work! Things
that I had to learn the hard way! Go ahead, take advantage of my trial and errors, do not re-invent the wheel! I want you to succeed,
by gaining the competitive advantage you so deserve!.
Here's an example of what's in the book taught to us by one of our many great mentors. It's really cool, I'm
Serious! Harlan and I talk about reframing the question in Section Four of The Selling Gap. Here goes:
|
|
|
|
Two monks were meeting in the hall.
“Good day, Brother John. You look a bit down in the mouth".
“Yes, Brother Mark. I just asked the Bishop if it was alright to smoke while I prayed, and he said, Absolutely not!”
“That is interesting, Brother John, because just yesterday I asked the Bishop if it was alright to pray while I smoked, and he said,
Sure, go ahead!" |
|
|
|
|
That single thought process will more than pay for the book when used in the correct situation.
Just think about it, a slight change of the wording allows one to smoke when he prays, and the other to receive a
harsh rebuke for asking basically the same question. Amazing isn’t it? 
Greg, I've read enough! Let me order now!
So Greg, you ask “What else is in the book?”
I thought you’d never ask! Well, it has lots of techniques for you to apply! Such as:
 |
Latest psychology applied to the new
tools! |
 |
Latest psychology applied to the old
standards! |
 |
New way to look and approach the old
challenges! |
 |
New Tools never before
published! |
Harlan and I realize that maybe you’re new to sales or you’re a seasoned veteran.
It just doesn’t matter to us!
Either way, the commanding statement is not...
Tell me what works in selling today!
Rather the commanding statement is...
Tell ME what will give ME a competitive edge, a new view, more
predictable results in less time with less effort!
Life is happening fast. You and I don’t have time to ponder the reality of life. What you and I need are results,
and the results better come quickly! We have a family to spend time with, a football game to watch, a loved one to cuddle with by the
fire.
What would happen if you could find a reference source that takes the hassles out of sales?
Rather than spend days and days of figuring out the fastest means to get results, buy the book, apply the principles, reap the
rewards. The hassles of life will take up enough of your time, here's a shortcut.
Here are just a few of the many tools we found the hard way:
|

|
What your Customer actually buys....
|
|

|
Weed out the buyers from the merely interested...
|
|

|
Read your customer's body language in new ways...
|
|

|
Quickly find out what they really want to buy...
|
|

|
Understand your product in a different way...
|
|

|
Sell your product so the competition is not considered...
|
|

|
Beat your competition without using pricing...
|
|

|
Control the questioning, control the sales process...
|
| Exposed: Sales is not just a “numbers game”. Harlan and Greg provide actionable information for the sales
professional … and anyone interested in sales. The Reader will soon find the authors have masterfully blended motivational
psychology and neuro-linguistic programming with established sales principles. This, then, provides a very effective, new, point
of view on the sales equation. I highly recommend this book. |
| Lyle R. Johnson, Ph.D., MBA, President, L R Johnson, Inc. |
That's quite a testimonial! "A very effective, new, point of view on the Sales
Equation." Doesn't sound like the old and tired sales lingo from the past. Just imagine getting a leg up on your
competition, by using just one new idea found in the book. Such as:
 |
Reverse Engineering
Process |
 |
Five Levels of
Questioning |
 |
The Socratic Method |
 |
Breaking through Personal Barriers with Self Perception
Imagine the value this insight could have for you!
Picture the time and effort it will save you!
|
If you could gain the ONE idea that moves you ahead to more sales, what would be your return on an investment of a
mere $16.95 be?

I'm Convinced I need this, let me get started!
Don’t take our word for it, Look what these individuals have to say!
| “I know that my money has been invested, rather than “spent”, when what I have learned has allowed me to be better
at what I do. This book is absolutely an investment!; one that I’m not only benefiting from now, but that will continue to “pay”
dividends for years to come. A must have for your library!” |

| Taking your product and pull it apart to look at it in a different light is a great concept as in the Mig analogy.
We all get stuck in our way of seeing our product and do not analyze it from a different angle. This is because it works fine now
and it would be out of our comfort zone to change. True sales people look at each situation and see if their product works for
that situation. Your book points out that a sales professional doesn't sell the product, first they solve the situations that are
hindering a business and if the `product solves the situation mission accomplished. |
| Dean Krogen, KVLY TV Sales |
| Harlan and Greg bring their incredibly effective sales training to the printed page for a small fraction of the
cost. This book is a great value. Here, you can learn the strategies and tools that have improved the sales performance of
hundreds of individuals and companies. This book is very readable, it’s like the authors are having a conversation with you. The
techniques they teach are innovative, organized, easy to grasp, and thoroughly effective. I learned a lot from this book. So will
you!! |
| Eric S. Knowles, Ph.D., Author of Resistance and Persuasion. www.drknowles.com |
| “I signed two new advertisers to annual contracts last week and have three prospect appointments scheduled for this
week. The magic question was, "What is your vision for your business?” Then I tailored my recommendation around their answer. And
the conceptual close was SO AWESOME!!!!! I got chills as I was asking it, in anticipation for their collective, undisputable
agreement that we should do business!! It was such a rush. Thanks for your guidance, Harlan. Much appreciated...” - |
| Lori Thompson, advertising/ corporate sales trainer |

Remember that 80% of new sales people fail! Yes, over 80% of new sales people fail! Why? Because they have absolutely zero
understanding of selling skills, the buying process or questioning ability! It isn't their fault that they are going to fail, until
now. The Selling Gap addresses the major strategies for succeeding in sales and life!

| I enjoyed the book and the content. I found a lot of value in it. When I read sections it would remind me of things
I had done in the past that worked very well, only I didn't have any idea what I was doing at the time. From today on "I choose"
to utilize the strategies in this book for greater sales success. I think the book is very good and really hits a lot of meaty
subjects on how to sell to anyone. |

How can we forget this!!!
That’s right. If you read "The Selling Gap" and find nothing of value in the book, send it back!
Let us know and we will refund your $16.95. You keep the bonus MP3s!
How can you possibly loose?
We believe so strongly in what this book has to offer we will guarantee its value. We'd be crazy not to, especially with
the experience, knowledge and research behind these concepts! We know they work, because we use them!
Just imagine being able to sell $5,000,000 in one year in a small market and only work 30 hours a week! Yes, it's true, because
I am the individual using the concepts found in The Selling Gap!
Guess what, the next highest producer worked 60 hours a week to produce the same results! Does The Selling
Gap work? You be the judge!
Now many people would say “Enough Learning” after all we'd been
through!
Not Harlan and I!
We found some quick results, low hanging fruit it could be called, so we went looking for more! Yep, and we found it
in people like …

Remember the Special offer?
Click Below to get it, We've added another unannounced special
bonus!
So how do two guys like Harlan and I get
together?
Well, Harlan felt so strongly about helping others grasp the understanding of the sales process that he conducted well over 300 - 30 hour hands
on training programs for over 10,000 salespeople!
This is not a lecture, this is direct coaching over time and results had to be seen!
His frustration with getting people to quickly and effectively understand the sales process lead him
to developing the concepts of Reverse Engineering, the 5 Levels of Questioning and the 4 Socratic Questioning types!
I was one of his students! I enjoyed the experience so much that I became an assistant in the training programs.
Do Harlan and I have stories to tell you? You bet we do!
Guess what, you get the results of these experiences in the
book, The Selling Gap!
The true bonus is quite simple! The experiences we share are not just mine and Harlan’s! It's also about the experiences of 10,000 other
salespeople, given to you!
What price tag would you place on the experience of 10,000 other salespeople? We placed a great value on it!
It is my hope that you read the book, and apply the
principles to your sales process. I want to see you spending more time on what is important to you.
Which one will it be for you?
A sales career should be the highest paid most enjoyable one
to have.
The unprepared salesperson will experience it as the lowest
paid most miserable profession, looking to get out and do something else.
Good Luck, write back to me with your success stories!
I want to read them! Who knows, maybe your success story will be the next one included in "The Selling Gap"! The satisfaction of
helping another salesperson succeed is unbelievable.
To your Success!
