Publisher Description: Innovative and on the cutting edge, Visionary Selling shows you how to sell effectively to top decision makers by going beyond the hard sell of a specific product to aligning with the broader vision of top management. As a result of reengineering and the trend towards new horizontal management structures, top executives are more accessible and more responsive to outside sources of information and ideas. By discovering customers' vision and formulating innovative ideas to enhance their businesses, salespeople can cross the boundary of sales to perform as business allies in a collaboration to fulfill the vision of their customers.

With her gift for making complex ideas accessible, Geraghty explains:
