ABOUT
Just ten years ago, Sam Taggart was beating the streets as a door-to-door salesman selling solar and alarm systems, getting thousands of doors slammed in his face – and worse – every day. Now, Sam is the founder and CEO of D2D Experts, a seven-figure sales empire that offers training to an active userbase of 30,000 members. Eat What You Kill is the key to mastering the art of sales - and it all starts with a simple mindset shift.
In this practical guide, Sam Taggart teaches readers to be sales carnivores – conquerors with limitless potential – instead of herbivores – victims who make excuses for their failures. No matter what you're selling or how you do it, this book is chock full of winning advice for closing every deal, such as:
- how to build your own pipeline instead of relying on opportunities from higher-ups
- how to build a healthy 'sales routine' to maximize earnings and minimize burnout
- how to build bullet-proof pitches tailored to the four types of prospect
- how to properly frame rejection so you don't lose steam
From improvisational tips to take your pitches to the next level, to activating your “prey drive” to supercharge prospecting, Eat What You Kill is the synthesis of everything Sam Taggart has learned on his way to becoming the world’s best salesman.
STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS
Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.
In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.
The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
