NJEXIT3: I've been in sales 30 years, primarily enterprise software to large businesses. This book is a great desktop reference on the importance of qualifying each and every sales opportunity.
John writes conversationally, providing stories of past interactions with sellers over his long career. The stories are easy to follow and drive home key points. At 323 pages, it's a bit too long and could have had fewer stories and more bullet points, but still a great book and reminder that salespeople need to "always be qualifying."
I recommend this book.

CP: Compelling story telling that instills lessons. The first thing you will realize is you have to change. Have an outward mindset and start moving forward. What is the worst thing that could happen?

Kyle: A man who knows software sales writes all his thoughts down in the order it occurs to him. It’s a stream of conscious writing with a few good nuggets in here. Written more for the sales manager than the sales person, insofar as that’s the perspective he shares.
If you are in software sales and want to learn about MEDDIC / MEDDPIC process - this can do that. But the book’s outline and logical path is not exactly straight forward. He meanders from topic to topic like he’s written things down as it popped into his head. It’s not a bad thing - but if you want a straight forward explanation of the methodology - find it online.
He probably wanted to avoid a textbooks dry, concrete, straight forward style. He accomplished it, but at the cost of brevity and clarity. Still accomplished his job. 3.5 stars and we round up since the topic is so specific it’s hard to find a similarly focused book.
Overall - This is more of a self guided safari then a structured path through animal exhibits at the zoo. But you still get to see some animals worth seeing. Find the good parts and put a tab there for future reference.

Ron Immink: It is really hard to find a good sales book. “The Qualified Sales Leader: Proven Lessons from a Five Time CRO” ticks all the boxes. It describes the sales process in detail, hands you a structure and gives you all the questions you need to ask. The book takes you through the journey of a consultancy assignment and, in that way, reminds me of “The Phoenix project”. It is excellent.
Forecasting
It starts with observing the forecast review of that company. In a forecast review, reps often find it difficult to be completely honest about their account situations. It becomes a combination of “happy ears,” rose-coloured glasses, and sandbagging efforts that force managers to qualify the accuracy of forecasts by listening to fictional stories and searching for the truth in the forecasted opportunities. With lots of superficial questions:
Why do you think you’re going to get the deal?
How long have you worked on this deal?
When do you think the deal will come in?
Do you think they’ll buy this quarter?
Who is the competitor?
Is there anything you’re worried about?
