Derek Gatehouse will be an ongoing contributor to Secrets from the Inside, Business Section. He has has been my best friend, my Life Coach, my Life Line, and my giggle buddy for over fifty years. He is also the best salesman, best sales guru, and best sales author I know. Since publishing his industry-jarring The Perfect Sales Force in 2007, Gatehouse has been the biggest celebrity nobody knows — except the CEOs, Sales Managers, and even novice managers in other industries were using it as a biblical how-to build and manage a sales force. He landed on the map of many Top 10 Reviews over the years, and although Derek has a slew of published out there (and inside the sales industry libraries and board rooms), The Perfect Sales Force is my favourite sales and management book of all time. And that, my friends, is saying a lot.
