“I want to be in Sales when I grow up"

We think that needs to change

The goal of this book is to have a greater impact on the overall profession of Sales than any book on sales process or technique ever could. 100% of the profits will go to my daughter’s favorite charity, the World Wild Life Fund. Remember, Sales isn’t just about making money.

HOW IT ALL STARTED

Our story

Sales is one of the greatest professions in the world when done right. It not only drives everything we do but it opens a world of possibilities for those who choose to commit to it as a profession. This book follows Charlie on her journey to find out what Sales is really all about and the benefits it provides to anyone who cares to learn how to do it the right way.

Year 1

The first year of selling cookies my daughter, Charlotte, asked if I would share her web order form out to my social network so people could buy online. I told her she had to earn it and give people a reason to buy from her. So we put together this little video and blog post.

Year 2

She sold the most cookies in our hometown the first year, so we had to step it up in year two with an updated pitch, objection handling techniques and some old school door to door selling.

An education in what Sales is really all about

Charlie must write a book report about a career in Sales for school. Since she doesn’t know what Sales is she decides the best way to learn is to try it herself. She quickly finds out that Sales isn’t as easy as it seems.

Key take-aways

Her book report in the end summarizes what she learned and gives a strong foundation for anyone who is interested in pursuing a career in Sales.

About the author

John Barrows, CEO JBarrows Sales Training

After graduating with my degree in Marketing I’ve spent my entire career in Sales. I’ve held every position in Sales from making 400 cold calls a week as an inside sales rep to being the VP of Sales for a start-up that we sold to Staples. I now train the sales teams at some of the fastest-growing companies in the world like Salesforce.com, Linkedin, Google and many others.

I wrote this book with my daughter based on our experience working together selling cookies. My main goal is to help elevate the profession of Sales by showing people how to do it the right way and for the right reasons.
