How many times have shoppers been turned off, because they weren’t turned on by the sales help? Kirt Manecke of Milford has written a book for sales people that starts with the fundamental message, “Smile.” His small soft bound book is a quick read, outlining the basic principles of customer service and sales.

I read Smile and it is excellent! My daughters are not going into sales but I wanted them to read Smile also to improve how they present themselves in life. Smile is full of great tips.
