Product Description
"Chet Holmes has been called one of the top 20 change experts in the country. He helps his clients blow away both the competition and their own expectations. And his advice starts with one simple concept: focus! Instead of trying to master four thousand strategies to improve your business, zero in on the few essential skill areas that make the big difference. Too many managers jump at every new trend, but don't stick with any of them. Instead, says Holmes, focus on twelve critical areas of improvement "one at a time" and practice them over and over with pigheaded discipline. The Ultimate Sales Machine shows you how to tune up and soup up virtually every part of your business by spending just an hour per week on each impact area you want to improve. Like a tennis player who hits nothing but backhands for a few hours a week to perfect his game, you can systematically improve each key area. Holmes offers proven strategies for: -- Management: Teach your people how to work smarter, not harder -- Marketing: Get more bang from your Web site, advertising, trade shows, and public relations -- Sales: Perfect every sales interaction by working on sales, not just in sales The Ultimate Sales Machine will put you and your company on a path to success and help you stay there!"

 Executive/Business Owner level Sales & Marketing Plan with extra's, 2008-11-13
In the last 15+ years I have read 100+ sales books. I would only recommend about 5, this is one of them.
This is the best Executive/Business Owner level Sales and Marketing system book I have read.
This is a big picture and overview book with many useful extras. I have read no other sales book with such useful information about integrating marketing with sales systems. I believe Sales Machine is an excellent descriptive title and what this book is about.
Most sales books are for face-to-face salespersons, all about nuts and bolts of sales techniques. Sales Machine has some of that, but more importantly this book is all about the big picture of Sales & Marketing in real application.
I believe this book lays the foundation for non-sales and non-marketing people to appreciate these two areas and respect what they do. I believe everyone will benefit from the self-management and productivity teaching in the first few chapters. I have not seen a sales book as well written which includes marketing.
I owned an insurance agency for 14 years. I wish I would have had these sales machine information years ago. I believe it would have saved me 100's of hours and earned me 100,000's of dollars. I believe it will save and earn me more in my current business.
When I read the Foreword: When Words Are Never Enough by Michael E. Gerber I thought- yeah right, this book isn't that good. But, since I have had lunch with Michael (sales contest payoff) I trust his statements. He says "Let the system be the solution" this book does it. I was in no way disappointed. This book delivered just like Michael said it would.
I am going to recommend this book to all our executives. This is a great book to build a sales and marketing culture in an organization. It expresses exactly what I want in a business. This is a great book to build a business around.
I recommend this book. Worth every dollar. It is one of my top five sales book choices.
