Knock! Knock!

Lessons Learned and Stories Shared—A Ride-Along with Sales Superstar Douglas Thompson

By Douglas Thompson with Echo Montgomery Garrett

KNOCK! KNOCK! teaches you how to get out of your comfort zone, to believe in yourself and in whatever you are selling. It also teaches you to have a great time while you are doing it. For the past five decades, I've made an excellent living in sales. I cannot recall meeting a single soul who told me of a childhood dream to be a salesperson. In fact, a lot of folks may even have a negative attitude toward the sales profession. My mission is to replace that preconceived notion with a positive one. Even if you have an aversion to the very word sales, at some point in your life I guarantee you will find yourself needing to sell something. Join me on what salespeople call "a ride-along," and I’ll show you the ropes. This book delivers a winning sales philosophy illustrated by real-life stories and Knock-Knock Moments—lessons and revelations that have fueled my career and that will help yours.

Review Quotes:

“A lot of us are accidental salespeople. Put Doug’s principles to work and you’ll be unbeatable.”
— Bryan Flanagan, former Director of Training for the Zig Ziglar Corporation and CEO, The Flanagan Training Group and author of Now Go Sell Somebody Something!

“Make Knock! Knock! the top of the list of required reading before beginning a job. Anyone who has any business of any kind and deals with the public, is selling every day. One’s entire life’s work, from teaching your children to become good adults, to running your business, involves selling. Doug has done a masterful job of laying out things one must do in order to attain those goals. The author adeptly demonstrated, by telling stories of his successes and failures, that one must believe in oneself, believe in the product you are selling, and enjoy talking about it.

Knock! Knock! is a great instruction manual for anyone in sales, and it also teaches many essential principles of good character. In addition to being instructional, it is also entertaining. I had a lot of good laughs as I followed the progress of the author’s journey through life. I would highly recommend it to anyone, but especially anyone thinking of going into sales.”

— L.C. Dunlop, M.D., author 

“This is a must-read book for anyone in the world of sales or thinking about sales. The author doesn’t re-hash tired, old topics. Instead, he shares first-hand, personal techniques from his successful sales career spanning several decades. It’s like getting the playbook from a winning Super Bowl quarterback. Knock! Knock! is a definitive roadmap for your own selling success.”

— Mitchel Whitington, author and speaker on East Texas history
