About this ebook
If you're interested in Sales, Entrepreneurship or Network Marketing, this will be the most important book you'll ever read.
First of all, this isn't like any business book you've ever read. There's no fluff or filler - just battle-tested tactics that are working right now.
And it's easy to read.
At 72 pages, you can read it in an afternoon.
And It's About MORE Than Just Sales.
See, you can use the same system in this book to build any kind of organisation.
For example, I've also used the same system to get professional services clients for my marketing agency every month.
An insurance company recently used the same strategies in the book to recruit Financial Advisers for their firm.
A client in the Network Marketing industry is using the book to recruit members and build his organisation rapidly.
So like I said, there's more to this little book than "just" sales. Here's a fraction of what you're getting...
Five ways to get prospects eager to buy ...before they even see your pitch. Believe it or not, one way is by refusing to sell to them! See how it works (and the other four ways as well) on page 36.
The 7 reasons why EVERYONE needs to learn sales - even if you hate selling. Page 20.
How to eliminate sales resistance and skepticism. A simple approach that builds trust and goodwill. Page 57.
Can you really get clients in the next fourteen days - even if you're a complete "unknown" and even if you have no list? Page 52.
How to be an entrepreneur the right way. Don't be a wantrepreneur like everyone else. Page 26.
You thought you need to learn new systems and techniques right? Wrong! The key is to unlearn the junk that you thought you knew. Page 45.
The best thing to sell. Understanding this will make you a lot of money! Page 16.
Why you should never tell a prospect how you can help them! Never! Shocking test results on page 35.
How to learn The Apollo Method within 7 days. This is what makes it the fastest and most efficient sales system on the planet. Page 11.
The 6 skills you need to master. Convincing and harassing your prospect isn't one of them. Page 24.
The best way to prove your value to a prospect. (Whatever you do, DON'T talk about your credentials or experience!) Page 34.
What to do if you're brand new and nobody's ever heard of you. Page 27.
You're right ...that is a lot of battle-tested strategies and tactics. And it's really just the tip of the iceberg.
Why I wrote this book
The reason why I wrote this book is because I always had a passion for finding out why is it that some people are more successful than others. What are the factors that contribute to success in sales?
After observing and studying hundreds of Entrepreneurs, Athletes and Salespeople, I have understood exactly why some people achieve way more than others.
I believe that success in sales can definitely be duplicated so long as the right elements are in place. All these elements are explained in the book. The higher your Apollo Factor, the higher the likelihood of you succeeding.
After reading the book, you'll realise why some people cope while others thrive and how you can thrive in this ever-changing marketplace too!
Here's What To Do Next
This book is free to download
You can access it anywhere, immediately, without having to wait for the mail man.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Introduction
Most people run for the hills when they hear the word sales
, for a bunch of redundant reasons like I’m too shy to sell
or I don’t know anything about sales
. Some people even believe that salespeople are filthy lying individuals, who are just after their money. These are all just limiting beliefs that might be hindering your success in sales.
In fact, sales is in our very nature as it is based on communication and human interaction. In this book, I will break down the psychology and personality of a good salesperson. I will also introduce you to The Apollo Method. A simple process that cuts through the clutter of all the useless techniques, and guides you through the processes that are truly important for this profession.
What this book will help you do, is to save you time. We live in an era of too much (mis)information. There are so many free articles about sales and business, that sometimes it can be a little overwhelming. Those articles normally do not provide much value, as the content is meant to draw people’s attention, and introduce the consumer to their business. This is why you mainly see articles like 5 Types of Salespeople
or 7 Ways to Increase Your Sales
disseminated throughout the internet. These articles were not designed to give you value. They were designed to sell you products and services.
On the other hand, this book was designed to give you value. It’s the essence of whatever I have learnt in my entrepreneurial journey thus far. Every paragraph that I include is edited several times, to make sure that every sentence is of value to you. The Apollo Method works for the following people:
People who are looking to join a sales platform. This includes network marketing, insurance, property, investments, etc.
People who are already in the sales and marketing industry and looking to get breakthroughs
People who are leading a team of salespeople
People who are thinking of becoming entrepreneurs
Be ready though. In order to help you achieve success in sales, I need to help you reshape how you think, see and feel about sales. You can’t possibly expect to succeed at something you don’t like doing or feel bad about. The question is this, "How willing are you to change your mindset in
