Everybody Works In Sales by Niraj Kapur

Everybody Works in Sales We all work in sales. If you work for somebody, you earn a living by selling their product or service. If you are self-employed, you earn a living by selling your product or service.  When you buy from Amazon, they always recommended other products similar to the ones you are purchasing or have already purchased - that’s selling. When you download a song, movie or TV show from iTunes, they always recommend more similar products. That’s selling. When you register for most websites, they sell their products or services to you through a regular email.    When you attend an exhibition at the NEC, London ExCel, Olympia, Manchester or even a local market, everyone is trying to sell you their product. We all work in sales, yet few people know how to sell. Until now. Containing 27 valuable lessons, plus 17 interviews with experts, Everybody Works in Sales combines unique storytelling and personal development to ensure you

Queen Mary's Daughter

There are so many possibilities that affect the course of history. One change, one small item overlooked, can make a world of difference, not only in a person's life, but in the history and well-being of an entire nation. And then there are those multiple scenarios of what if?  What if King James VI of Scotland didn't succeed in amalgamating Scotland with England? What if there had been another heir to the throne of Scotland? One who would secure its independence? Would Scotland have remained free and independent and a nation of its own well into the twenty-first century? And would Scotland, this independent version, make its own decision to join the European Union when its southern neighbor was choosing to pull away? "Queen Mary's Daughter" presents another plausible timeline, one that incorporates both historical fact and fiction with the endless possibilities of time travel. ~ Universal Amazon Link ~ ~  Goodreads ~
