I am new to tech sales, and have been reading plenty of sales books to get up to speed and sharpen my skills. Mainly books like "Never Split the Difference" or "Fanatical Prospecting".
But, i'd be interested in hearing some community recommendations for non-sales sales books. As in a book that isn't explicitly about sales, but still contains plenty of wisdom that is useful in the field.
One of my choices would be "Thinking In Bets" by Annie Duke. She's an ex professional poker player and her systematic approach to decision making helped me choose which activities to prioritize over others throughout my day.
It also made me appreciate structuring my work to prioritize outcomes over inputs. I'd rather make 5 high quality calls that book two meetings than 50 low quality calls that book one.
What do you all think?
