Professional Selling in the Knowledge Economy

Since the beginning of time, wealth and power have been associated with control of the dominant form of capital supporting the economy. With the dawn of the Agricultural Age thousands of years ago, wealth and power became associated with the control of land. Those who controlled the most fertile or strategically defensible lands dominated the economy. As we enter the 21st century, we have reached a point where the abundant access to information has leveled the playing field of business, making knowledge the commodity of power in the Knowledge Economy. "Professional Sales in the Knowledge Economy" will reacquaint you with the timeless principles of success, introduce you to the new laws driving the knowledge economy, and introduce you to the proven strategies that will position you for successful selling.
