Reviews
“Most salespeople don’t read sales books anymore. That’s why everything is a “secret” of success to them. Spike Santee is a Radio pro who shares his experience and equips you with knowledge, skills, and attitudes that will set you up for a fulfilling and successful career in Radio Advertising sales.” – Chris Lytle, Author of the Accidental Salesperson.
“You’re in good hands with Spike Santee. He knows radio and how to sell it as well as anyone on earth. If you pay close attention, study what he tells you, and do what he says (even if it’s uncomfortable), you will win big.” – B. Eric Rhoads, Founder of Radio Ink Magazine.
“I’ve devoted my life to helping people grow and prosper through professional training. I’ve known Spike Santee for many years. Based on Spike’s experience, expertise (and his collection of bow ties), if Spike wrote it, you should read it!” – Mark Levy, CRME, President Revenue Development Resourses, Inc.
