Secrets From The Street: Reveals How To Become A Manufacturers Rep;

How To Begin An Industrial Sales Career As An Independent Manufacturers Rep Or Salaried Rep

What ”Secrets From The Street” delivers.

    “Secrets” give the independent rep tools to start, acquire reliable product lines, grow your business and everything in between. “Early in my career I took the leap as an Independent Rep (Agent) and grew to a multi rep agency. Everything I learned is explained in my book, it’s a jump-start to profitability.” Walt’s sales methods aren’t garnered from others, they stem from a lifelong career as a manufactures rep.

    Four separate interests are addressed, independent manufacturers reps, salaried reps, manufacturers (principals) and rookie salespeople. All four are presented specific to their nature, yet are woven together so all aspects are pertinent to the reader.

    Some generalized sales books particulars for insurance, real estate, investments, etc.. That material is not within the scope of "Secrets", and the sales procedures they require would be foreign to salespeople involved in industry. However, Walt’s strategy for finding, contacting, and convincing decision makers along with a subtle finesse technique is relevant for everyone.

    "Secrets From The Street” is aimed at: sales to-and-for industry, manufacturing, the construction trade, industrial services, everything connected and implied; plus sales to-and-for industrial distribution and its vast network of dealers and distributors. Consider this: All you see, and use each day, not of nature, was manufactured.

    Reading Walt’s book may give pause to reps going out on their own; however, independent and salaried reps need to know what to expect and what it takes to make it. To that end, the first chapter introduces situations an industrial rep is likely to encounter, while chapters two and three begin the how-to realities of outside sales. “I appeal to reps to abide by my “take-it-to-the-bank” experiences. What’s written is the way it is, no pomp or empty promises.”

    Success depends upon a growing customer base, to achieve that result Walt’s “Secrets” deliver a unique methodology to uncover new customers, qualify potential and locate key decision makers your competitors don’t know exist. A chart makes it easy to follow.

    A supplement "Take A Manufacturers Agent To Market,” is included in the book “Secrets From The Street", and available separately as an e-book. Using Walt’s “conditions-for-success” and a fair written agreement, manufacturers will create quality relationships with reps. There’s a free sample agreement you can print from the book's website (secretsfromthestreet.com).

    Who needs to read this book? “Secrets From The Street,” is for everyone who has ever wondered about outside sales in the world of manufacturing. It’s for the rookie and seasoned salesperson; the eager beaver and the beleaguered. It’s for the gals and guys ready to quit after a week of no’s and for those who question how things went wrong after following scripted dialogue from a sales book, and it’s particularly for outside salespeople who don’t have a clue how to pick themselves up after useless motivational jargon wears off.
