The Fundamentals of Business-to-Business Sales & Marketing

John Coe's New Sales Coverage Model explains a holistic approach to marketing, which aligns marketing and sales together. If you're like most readers you will be tempted to skip over the fundamentals that John Coe lays out such as database design, planning, and micro-segmentation. The thing about marketing is that many marketers enjoy the creative process but few have the discipline for execution. Coe's book lays out an effective strategy, which requires teamwork and a shared vision involving all players. This practical book lays out step-by-step what you need to do to sell more and spend less. Great book!

This book is a wake-up call for marketing and sales organizations. The old ways of going-to-market are no longer effective in today's business environment. John Coe clearly understands the new sales paradigm and what it takes to be successful. He shows readers what it takes to: - Break through the marketing clutter and get noticed. - Obtain high quality leads and convert them to sales. - Create and execute an effective campaign. From the very first page of this book, I was hooked - and I'm a pretty discriminating reader. As someone who specializes in new product launches, I'm pretty cynical about most books since they just keep regurgitating old, time-worn strategies and tactics. This book is different. Well worth the investment. Jill Konrath CEO, Leapfrog-Strategies http://www.Leapfrog-Strategies.com Founder of top sales portal: http://www.sellingtobigcompanies.com

Coe has a fresh look at how we must do business today. This book is written in a conversational tone with great examples. It's the perfect refresher for a seasoned sales consultant and it outlines the basic principals for entry-level sellers.This book is a must as a resource and reference!

Coe bridges the gap between marketing and sales productivity by connecting the dots with new and irrefutable proof that the basics work if you follow the formula. This is a must read for marketing, marketing communications and sales management in the same company so everyone is on the same page. If you're not making your numbers, read this and you'll find out what you're doing wrong.

My colleague John Coe has written a new book, "The Fundamentals of Business-to-Business Sales and Marketing," published by McGraw-Hill.It is not a "high concept" or "big idea" book; therefore, fans of The ClueTrain Manifesto and other such highfalutin nonsense may find John's book way too practical - filled with stuff you can actually do today to increase your sales tomorrow.But if you like, as I do, business books that are heavy on the nuts-and-bolts, telling you what to do to increase sales results - and how to do it cost-effectively - than buy John's book today.
