My points of view and the referral process remain the same. What has changed are some of the references to companies and resources.Reviews:"It's filled with exclamation marks, lots of all-capital words, and breathless enthusiasm. It is far different from many of the existing "how to sell intangible services" systems. Yet, referral selling, as espoused and explained by Black, works. Although her energetic prose occasionally can be off-putting, she's got proven ideas and a great methodology--if it were truly transparent. The issue? That too much other information obscures her killer acronym, or attract (Tell, Remind, Audience, Contacts, Touch), elaborated on in chapter 10. For sure, the other data enhance and feed into her themes; how could anyone argue with topics such as management responsibilities, four essential attitudes, the right kind of customer, etc.? Bottom line: the message is muddied, despite some wonderful advice, personal success stories, and great practical tools and templates." —Barbara Jacobs, Booklist"Effective selling begins with a steady supply of leads.
