"SPIN Selling"

Paper Summary:

The paper reviews the work "SPIN Selling" by Neil Rackham that was written to establish concrete procedures for selling products or services. The paper outlines the SPIN methodology and shows how "SPIN Selling" concretely describes a very abstract process. The paper mentions the criticism of the book but concludes that since random occurrences hardly ever take place in the sales community, Rackham's innovative SPIN methodology is to be recommended.

From the Paper:

"American capitalism has succeeded based on many criteria--the spirit of entrepreneurs, the role of innovation, and clever marketing tactics. However, the ability to sell products to consumers is viewed as the critical crux for any business environment. Throughout history, there have been numerous tactics, techniques, and procedures designed to capitalize on the sale of diverse products. From association to motivation methods, the ability to sell products is as challenging as it is crucial. How do consumers relate to various sales strategies? How can salespersons establish an effective mechanism to selling product even when they are not essential?"
