This textbook is suitable for the following courses: Marketing, Personal Selling, Professional Selling, Sales, and Salesmanship (introductory level).

Richmond’s goal in writing The Power of Selling was simple. The author wanted to make the selling process come alive for students in the classroom, to teach students how to apply the fundamentals of selling, how to sell themselves, and to get the job they want with the same process professional sales people learn for their own selling skills. This textbook uses the traditional selling tenets as its foundation and adapts the concepts to the rapidly changing world of business in today’s environment, including the use of Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, blogs, wikis, and other interactive ways of connecting with customers.
