Summary: A MUST READ The Ultimate Sales Machine
Comment: Chet Holmes has put together a GREAT presentation on how to Turbocharge any business. Although I'm heading into my "autumn years", I've recharged my selling activities. Pity this book wasn't available years ago, not that I wasn't an achiever then but could have been a super star. Highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to "lead the pack" and be a trend setter in the business world.

Summary: Excellent Business Information - Poor Quality Discs
Comment: I've been in sales, marketing, and management for 31 years and this is, simply, an outstanding compilation of how-to information for which one would normally pay quite handsomely. The step-by-step details work regardless of the size of company. The information about correcting mistakes and fine-tuning newly implemented ideas is sensational.

The negative for me was the lack of quality in the audio discs. The discs weren't the regular, silver-backed discs but burned copies. Two of the first four discs wouldn't even play. The fact he couldn't follow his own advice and distribute a high quality item is quite perturbing.
