Selling to Zebras: How to Close 90% of the Business You Pursue Faster, More Easily, and More Profitably is a sales book written by Jeff Koser.[1]
In the book's methodology, every sales prospect is quantified by scoring seven traits.[2][3] The book won USA Book News' "Best Book" in the Business:Sales category.[4] The book is featured in chapter one of "The Sales Gurus: Lessons from the Best Sales Books of All Time".[5]
With the help of his son, Koser wrote the book based on experience as a sales rep, sales manager and sales executive. The book was published in 2009 by Greenleaf Book Group Press.[6]
"Jeff Koser wrote a book that I consider one of the best sales books I have read in the last decade. What made this book interesting was their methodology and process for identifying a company's best prospects. They developed a very scientific analytical model that can be used by any company." -Marc Kramer, quoted from an article in The Entrepreneur.
