What's You Learn?
The fortune is in the follow-up, not the first pitch – Follow Up and Close the Sale by Jeff Shore shows how top performers convert "not yet" into "yes" through strategic persistence.

This comprehensive sales book summary and key takeaways reveal:

  • The Psychology of Buying - Decisions happen emotionally first, then get justified logically
  • Personalized Follow-Up - Tailor each touchpoint to individual customer needs and concerns
  • Timing Sequences - Contact within 24 hours, then strategically space interactions
  • Value-Add Approach - Share insights and solutions, not just check-ins


What most summaries miss: Shore's "emotional altitude" concept explains why enthusiasm drops after initial meetings and how to reignite it.

Your Click.Apply.Grow™ journey: Create follow-up templates tonight. Schedule three touchpoints per prospect. Add value in every interaction. Sales professionals using Shore's system close 67% more deals from follow-up alone.

No doesn't mean never.
