My previous work, Practical Selling -- No Seminars in Foxholes, addressed the issues important to salespeople out in the trenches. Together with Practical Sales Management -- Alone in the Field, these two books are calculated departures in approach from all of the Sales Books descended from Dale Carnegie's 1936 How to Win Friends and Influence People. 68 years is long enough to pretend that large complex sales will be won or lost based on whether the prospect likes the salesperson. Hopefully, we are done with pop, self-help psychologists telling salespeople how to sell. Likewise, the two works deviate significantly from the latest themes of 80's-90's sales books: (1) one-size-fits all selling techniques; (2) interchangeable salespersons; (3) rational, fair and honest selling environments; (4) the presumption of competitive products, unlimited resources, competent management, strong companies. Regarding (4), I am amazed by how many individuals, even with sales in their titles, know very little about selling. There are armies of salespeople working for large American companies who, in the final analysis, simply take orders because their companies and their products are so strong. No one has to sell anything until the customer says "no." Meanwhile, the sales manager must lead the right organization to address multiple territories, product lines, channels and strategies. None of that would especially matter if orders simply came in due to the likeability of the salesperson or the strength of the product or company. Unlike the idealized environment described in books and seminars, he must often deal with limited resources and lack of support from his company; a broad range of sales roles required by his company's situation; flesh-and-blood salespeople with their individual capabilities and deficiencies to train and motivate; and huge amounts of effort put into non-revenue-producing, often meaningless, administrative tasks that drain his time and energy. And this is just the shortlist of challenges. In a sense, the sales force manager's dilemma is this: Unlike notions presented in conventional theory, the experienced sales manager knows that what he can achieve is going to depend on what situation he is in. This includes all the key components: what kind of industry, what kind of resources, what kind of company, what kind of salespeople, what kind of product, and what the market and account situation really is. The situational aspects are key! In short, Practical Sales Management -- Alone in the Field describes what actually happens in the real world of the sales manager.

Right of withdrawal

If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal

Statutory right to withdraw

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

Effects of withdrawal

If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.

We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to moluna, Greven, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

Exceptions to the right of withdrawal

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:

The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
