As a Sales Strategist instructor for our then young company, Matthew added hundreds of thousands of dollars in sales for us with his 'just tell stories' technique. He transformed our lowest selling introverted sales person into a ‘Top Dog’ winner for highest quarterly sales. Now he has distilled that several week course into an enjoyable read that has you pulling for the introvert, all while absorbing Matthew’s tried and true successful sales strategies. I highly recommend this book for both introverts and extroverts alike for improving their sales productivity.

Matt Pollard challenges some time-honored beliefs around what it takes to be successful at sales. I love how he weaves real-life stories into practical applications that new or even experienced reps can put to use right away! It's a must read for anyone who proudly calls sales their profession!

Matthew Pollard gets people and he gets sales. The Introvert’s Edge not only dispels the myth that you you must be loud and outgoing to thrive in sales, but he offers a powerful roadmap for how all of us can better build trust and connect with buyers. I. Absolutely. Love. This. Book. And I highly recommend it for anyone who sells, not just those who are more reserved!

Disclaimer: I went into Matt’s book a skeptic. (Introverts make the best salespeople? C’mon.) By page 6, I was intrigued; by page 16, captivated—and by page 30, Mr. Pollard had another believer and raving fan. The Introvert’s Edge isn’t vague coaching, it isn’t a rah-rah pep talk, it isn’t a handful of interesting ideas. This is the real deal. Matt’s approach is gold. Not only sales gold, but gold, period.

The more we learn about introversion, the better equipped we are to draw on its strengths. The Introvert’s Edge, a fine addition to the canon of introvert advice, offers a concrete, clearly delineated plan to help introverts defy the misperception that we can’t succeed in sales.

By far, this is the best sales book I have ever read. Matthew teaches how to turn every sales call from a pushy, do-or-die bulldog approach into a performance...much like a play. Tremendously effective for us introverts and a must read for anyone who knows they need to learn to sell, but thinks they don’t have what it takes.

Author/Speaker - The Psychology of Selling

Matthew practices what he preaches: by naming our pain points and sharing inspiring success stories, he sells us on the idea that introverts can sell! His framework puts process over personality, which is music to this introvert entrepreneur’s ears. I love how clearly he outlines his proven method. Whether you pick-and-choose or adopt his entire system, get ready to experience greater ease and flow with your sales process!

A salesperson or small business owner achieves success in sales when they listen, hear, build trust and advocate on behalf of their customer. This book does a masterful job of outlining all the key elements an introvert or extrovert must use to obtain a successful sales outcome and, more importantly, a happy customer.
