We're in the middle of an epidemic of average. So-called "normal" people get up every day, go to work, do what's asked of them, leave promptly at five, and return home to sit on the couch and watch TV. Society tells us that this is what it means to lead a balanced life. Don't stress too much or work too hard. Your career isn't everything. But Grant Cardone thinks this preoccupation with balance has really just given an excuse to be mediocre.

Every salesperson must endure many NOs in order to get to YES. Objections don't care or consider: who you are, what you sell, how you sell, or if you are new to sales or a veteran. For as long as salespeople have been asking buyers to make commitments, buyers have been throwing out objections. And, for as long as buyers have been saying no, salespeople have yearned for the secrets to getting past those NOs. Objections is a comprehensive and contemporary guide that engages your heart and mind.

Summary
During economic contractions, it becomes much more difficult to sell your products, maintain your customer base, and gain market share. Mistakes become more costly, and failure becomes a real possibility for all those who are not able to make the transition.
But imagine being able to sell your products when others cannot, being able to take market share from your competitors, and knowing the precise formulas that would allow you to expand your sales while others make excuses.
In If You're Not First, You're Last, international sales expert Grant Cardone explains how to sell your products and services - despite the economy - and provides you with ways to capitalize regardless of your product, service, or idea. His proven strategies will allow you to not just continue to sell, but create new products, increase margins, gain market share and much more. Key concepts in If You’re Not First, You’re Last include:
- Converting the Unsold to Sold
- The Power Schedule to Maximize Sales
- Your Freedom Financial Plan
- The Unreasonable Selling Attitude

Grant is really aggressive here... but he doesn't deliver much info. "The 10X Rule" is definitely a better book. Also, this one is packed with calls to action... he is actively promoting his other products.

Not bad at all but
Not bad at all and good body of work with a good few gems like on 10x rule but not in par with Sell or Be Sold or Closer's Survival Guide which are mammoth gem drops by comparison. This book however will help to get your mind right if that's what you need or reiteration it you're feeling a little disoriented or approach-rusty. my aim was for sales gems and how-to like the above mentioned but this is more mindset. Can't fault the GC!

Connected in 30 seconds
Never had such a connection with an author! Dude, got more done in 4hrs last night than I did last month...no exaggeration. Sold a business 6 months ago and thought I was doing well, everyone told me so anyway. Grant exposed my complete laziness... I am turning 50 and I have felt like I am just getting started, but after this book, I know I am 6 months behind already! I took the easy way for the last year, spending money, not exercising, not pushing... now my body is failing, I'm tired, my ego has emerged, I am not achieving greatness. I started with nothing, and designed a few machines, called everyone I could imagine, I emailed, made videos, I was all action, I was a madman, I built a small company from ZERO, doing exactly what Grant said, but only taking action, but probably only 25% of these suggestions and I sold the company in 5 short years. Now my goals are 125X of that. Thank you Grant for bringing a brother back down to earth! I'm so embarrassed in myself. You literally had me in the first 30 seconds. I WILL meet you one day, I must. Favorite new author, started downloading anything this guy wrote/narrated tbefore I left the runway. Dude, I Can't express enough gratitude, you the man. I will meet you in person, I will fill up my white space on the calendar with "laying across the Grant's parking garage until I get 30 seconds of advice" if I have to!
From a small business guy in Oregon, now humbled, Thanks Again! Mike M

Sounds rational – but not from a rational mind
Grant Cardone can be a greatly motivating listen. And this book is better than The 10x Rule. It's more practical, how-to oriented.
He is everything but rational though, and his advice may lead you to success – via a path of ... being and acting like Grant Cardone. That is; aggressive, single-minded and relentlessly marching on and on.
In this book he even goes to the extreme of recommending Scientology's crazy mega-vitamin detox – a programme that can be downright dangerous to pursue. A programme that has been discredited by science, and was created by L. Ron Hubbard who was not a doctor or scientist, but a sci-fi writer.
So with this book, a return/refund, I'm done with Cardone.

Mixed Review!
The first half of the book I spend thinking wow Grant is an arrogant typical sales person! I turned it off several times with a large sigh and eye roll.
But I kept coming back and listening to more.
By the time I reached half way I was hooked. His arrogance turned into motivation.
I ended up listening to the entire book and left feeling inspired.
I will even listen to it again and take better notes and start to implement his teachings.
One small critique- he gives Scientology a few plugs... again sigh and eye roll.

Forces You To Ask - Am I Doing Enough?
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I would recommend this audio book by Mr. Cardone because he's a great salesman. He details various strategies for aggressively dealing with the economically challenged circumstances we find ourselves in.
What other book might you compare If You're Not First, You're Last to and why?
Sell or Be Sold. Because he's the one reading it. He also gives advice that's outside of the book - from time to time.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Not necessarily an extreme reaction. It does cause one to ask - If you're just sitting around not taking any action at all for the betterment of your business - how are you going to improve your personal economy?
Any additional comments?
A great listen! I'm in the car most of the day and by the time I get to where I'm going - I'm motivated by his speaking and have some great ideas to put into action. Well worth it!

Must have tools for great salespeople & managers!
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
I not only recommended this book, I bought copies for my friends! Eventhough I've been in sales for 20 years, Grant Cordone had a pocketful of gems and tools for me to use. Grant has that over aggressive, enthusiasm that initially turned me off, but the content keep me interested through the whole book. If you follow his lessons at the end of each chapter you will increase sales and motivate your team.
What three words best describe Grant Cardone’s performance?
Enthusiatic, Motivational and sometimes overbearing. However he does a great job!
What did you take away from If You're Not First, You're Last that you can apply to your work?
I now have a book of tools to use to increase sales for my little company. Like setting up a monthly newsletter to my clients, speaking at real estate offices, women's groups, etc., about landscape design and the value that a great garden adds to ones enjoyment of their property and rapid sales in the Real Estate arena.
Any additional comments?
This is one you will listen to over and over again,
