Thanks Everyone!
As of tonight, Dirty Little Secrets is #2 in the sales category on Amazon! How exciting! I am so happy I can barely express it!
I have a lot of people to thank. The most amazing thing is that I’ve never met most of these angels – we have met over the past months (in some cases a year or more) over the phone!
First, and friend par excellence, is Jeff Blackwell of SalesPractice.com. Even though we don’t know each other well, he fell in love with Buying Facilitation™ and my decision facilitation model quite a while ago, believing that Buying Facilitation™ completes the sales model – with integrity. He has been tirelessly, and obnoxiously (smile) pitching me and the new book daily for months. He humbles me.
My friend Jill has been my sounding board, my mother, my friend, and my coach. Without her, I might have had a different book – certainly be a different person.
Clayton Shold at Salesopedia made me laugh while he did stuff to help my new book that was wwaaayyyy beyond the call of duty. Avril Shelton has been an angel, appearing softly to lend a hand at all of the right moments. Anne Miller kept me honest and reminded me of what I was forgetting. Paul Mccord and Meri Aaron Walker kept me present. Craig Rosenberg, Gerhard Gshwandtner, David Friedland and Stone Payton reminded me of who I really am and sometimes kept me going when I wanted to go back to bed. Alan Chapman has believed in me and kept advertising about me for years and years and years.
And so many other wonderful, kind, caring folks who believe in Buying Facilitation™. Thanks everyone. You are the best!

Without these angels, not only would the book not have gotten written in the months I spent writing it, but it wouldn’t have gotten the recognition or air time that it’s now getting world wide. Thank you all, from the bottom of my heart.
Here are some podcasts from the previous weeks that I have made with my friends: Lee Glickstein (Relational Presence), Clayton Shold (Why Sales Fail), Lee Colan (Leadership), Jeff Ogden (Buying Facilitation™)

Sharon-Drew I'm thrilled to hear you've hit #2 on Amazon – congratulations!!!
Also, a nice touch to do the acknowledgments above, but the real credit goes to the author, you persevered and were held steady by your beliefs and commitment.
Thank you for your kind remarks Sharon-Drew and Congratulations on a job well done!
Hello Sharon-Drew,
Your contribution to our profession is profound.
Thank you very much,
Robert
Congrats on #2 on Amazon, Sharon-Drew. That's a great accomplishment. But not only is it good for you, your excellent book provides a service for mankind. If companies can utilize Buyer Facilitation to shorten sales cycles, protect margins, and eliminate competitors, those improved fiscal results will enable them to hire new people and expand — so needed today.
Congratulations again, Sharon-Drew.
