Mark is such an incredible writer who truly understands the sales game. The writing style is so conversational that it feels like your mentor is speaking to you. Just loved this book and draw from it daily.

As a Real Estate coach and trainer, I am always looking for new material for my clients. Having read many self help and mindset books through the years, there was not a lot of new stuff. We have heard and know what we need to do. It is getting it done that requires discipline and constant pushing. Mark Hunter is the 'get it done' guy and the book is well worth the time and energy invested.

This is a book I would keep by my morning reading chair to keep me going and give me the boost I need before tackling my morning sales calls. Well done and easy to read.

This is a great book that COMPLETELY changed how I viewed the sales process and the sales profession. I will buy this book for my own personal library because it changed me so much!

"Tomorrow begins today"
A very inspiring and energising book that is perfect for anyone not just a salesperson. I would classify it more as a personal development book with the added bonus of some really interesting personal stories. I admired the passion that the author has for his life and I especially enjoyed the chapter on Mondays and how to prepare yourself for a very successful week. The author stresses throughout the book the importance of mindset on living a productive life. A motivating and practical book.

While I'm not a salesperson in the traditional sense, I still found a lot of wisdom in this book. Sales Hunter is great at his craft, and shares a lot of nuggets of truth all throughout. While I didn't think this was a book I would highlight much of, be sure you have a highlighter or pen around because he drops great life lessons all throughout!

I received an ARC from the publisher, but this review is mine!

Mark’s best and most impactful book to date (I’ve read all his books, and this was is a game changer). A Mind for Sales provides insights to develop a positive mindset as well as the behaviors that yields unprecedented success.

For those in sales who experience the rejections and challenges that inevitably come with the territory, this book is a must read to prevent a negative mindset and thus failure to breakthrough to your greatest potential.

I loved reading about Mark Hunter’s personal journey, which allowed me to relate with someone who has walked the talk and knows what it’s like. The outcome of his journey was a true inspiration for me at a time when I needed it most, especially in light of COVID-19, when it’s very easy to develop the wrong mindset that will stand in the way of achieving your goals.

It reinforced my passion for the sales profession and what I love most about sales.

The actionable guidelines make this a tactical read with key takeaways that you can put to work right away.

I had the privilege of reading an early digital copy from #NetGalley and I couldn't be happier. This was a perfect read it focuses on how a sale isn't just a sale its building a relationship. Not only that how it's different from just regular customer service. Explains how we gather information and how to use it where we add value to our customers lives. A must read for anyone who works in sales or marketing.

I got a digital review copy of this book via NetGalley. I've known and followed the work of Mark Hunter for a long time. I even hosted him on my podcast in the past. So, i know that if he has written it, it must be good.

What surprised me and in a very pleasant way was the first section about "Loving your Monday's". I have seen many sales executives approach their Monday's lazily and exit the week celebratorily (Thank God its Friday). He shows that in order to get superb results in selling, this needs to change.

In his usual style, he shares some very hard truths, busts some myths and gives great advice that sales folks around the world would be better off listening and acting on.

I don't dive into the world of nonfiction often, but when I do, I prefer titles that help me with real world skills.

A Mind for Sales is a well-written, smart, analytical take on sales strategies and mindset. Hunter emphasizes the importance of building relationships, but also differentiating the role from customer service. Too often, sales roles are tasked with handling generic questions and issues that take away from their main focus of selling. Building value is the bread and butter, and it's important to remember that there is a difference in skill set and expectation.

While some of the information was geared more toward direct sales, the tips, motivational anecdotes, and outlook on sales as a whole were much appreciated.

This book will be useful to anyone looking for professional development in the sales realm, and I will be recommending.
