		<description>Steve,

Our sales methodology, developed specifically for selling professional services, is RAIN Selling. We&#039;ve created this free ebook, Mastering Rainmaking Conversations – http://ow.ly/DGun - which outlines the RAIN Selling process and its underlying 7 principles. Once you have a chance to take a look, I&#039;d be curious to know your thoughts on this versus the others you mention.

		<description>This is really great stuff.  Among several excellent points, one that stood out to me is how LEAST important the Web site is as a buyer consideration.  So many sales &amp; marketing organizations spend gobs of time (and money) trying to improve what&#039;s on their Web site, assuming that this is what&#039;s making the biggest impression.  Clearly your research shows otherwise, and demonstrates that sales skills have the most impact.  

Thanks for conducting and publishing this research.</description>

		<description>We are a sales training company that teaches clients how to get a foot in the door with senior execs. As such, we are always keeping a pulse on the landscape of sales training methodoligies for asking better questions during the later parts of the sales process.  ValueSelling and SPIN seem to be some popular options for better questioning.  I&#039;d love to get a straw pole of some other favorites seeing as this is a key takeaway from the article.</description>
