When you buy a book on sales and service do want a book that merely rehashes the same material that hasn't been updated for 40 years, or do you want something fresh and innovative? Do you want something safe, or do you want something bold that might re-energize you and help you breakthrough to the next level? If you want something stale and clichéd, look elsewhere; Top Performer, a Bold Approach to Sales and Service doesn't play it safe.

Top Performer is about what is perhaps the most powerful force in the business world, Natural Energy - the force that gave birth to every new entrepreneurial venture and that built every successful company. Natural Energy is that unstoppable power that is unleashed in every authentic human interaction. It is created in those deep connections that free people to leap forward into new possibilities. Co-authored by Stephen Lundin, PhD, Top Performer is an eye-opening parable about harnessing Natural Energy - yours and that of those around you - in order to take your sales, and your satisfaction, to the next level of success.

In Top Performer you'll follow Jim, a disciplined but uninspired sales manager, who meets an unlikely busker/street performer in Dublin called the Rat Catcher. The Rat Catcher, like all top street performers, is a master of Natural Energy. He knows how to create it in his eager audiences; he knows how to harness it in his performance; and he knows how to transform it into a hat full of money by the end of his show.

The Rat Catcher tells - and shows - Jim some surprising secrets of his work that promise to transform Jim's understanding of relationships and the workplace; and to elevate and accomplish what's possible in his sales career. Claim Your Pitch, Build the Circle, Juice the Jam, Mine the Mess, Develop Insurance, Chose Your Close, and Pass the Hat - all terms-of-the-trade for buskers and street performers - become the keys to unlocking Jim's future, as well as the reader's, and filling it with sustainable, renewable energy, and the boost in sales and satisfaction that come with them.

Full of action-packed and sometimes hilarious descriptions of the real-life adventures of a professional street perform, this engaging metaphor will appeal to anyone in any position - and in any field from banking to baking to busking. In the tradition of the mega-bestselling FISH! series, (also co-authored by Stephen Lundin), this is a deceptively simple story that contains profound advice - advice that will help make readers into Top Performers themselves!
