A Book On Winning Consultancy Projects.

There aren't many books about Winning Consultancy Projects.

The Best Book I've read is Mahan Kalsa's.

Here's why:

And I've read a lot of B2B sales books looking for a gem. But they nearly all miss the mark for consultancy projects

The exception I've found - Let's Get Real or Let's Not Play by Mahan Kalsa.

For a few reasons:

- It focuses on sitting across the table with clients and figuring out projects together.

- It's easy to read with useful examples of typical consultancy sales meetings.

- There are phrases for specific situations that feel comfortable to use with clients. Not pushy, but assertive.

- The process recommended for selling a project makes sense. It's pragmatic, simple to learn, realistic, and easy to put in place.

- The methods suggested use consultation, not selling, to move toward an appropriate solution.

If you are at all interested in helping your clients succeed, I can't recommend this book enough.

And if you've read it, do you agree?

What other book would you recommend for beginners?

Does consultative selling work with public sector clients?

Does consultative selling work with public sector clients? In my last post, I recommended Consultative Selling by Mack Hanan. Reading the book, you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s all about commercial business. The language is all about profit improvement. Hanan puts that at the core of client conversations.
