IntroductionDiane Marie Pinkard, “Sales Success with Happiness and Heart,” believes that “People buy people, and they buy best from people who treat them like they matter.” This simple, cheerful proclamation is the heart and soul of my book and sales trainings. I teach that successful selling is not only about closing the sale, it’s also about building quality relationships, rich connections, and loyal trust—first with yourself, and then with your customers. Diane is author of the award winning book, Just Treat Me like I Matter: The Heart of Sales. My book won the 2008 NABE Pinnacle Book Achievement Award in the category of “Business.” As a 40-year Sales Expert, I have been honored by The American Business Awards for my creative approach to sales training. I was a finalist in the 2009 Stevie Awards for “Creative Professional of the Year.” Yes, my unique approach to selling “with happiness and heart” has been attracting a wide variety of groups to book me to conduct my sales training seminars.
