  • Dr. Tony Alessandra believes that Collaborative Selling requires creating long-term customers rather than one-shot sales; moving from a transaction mentality to building lifetime relationships; from persuading and telling to problem-solving and helping; from low-price selling to value-added selling. He focus on creating instant rapport with others; converting prospects and customers into business apostles; and out-marketing, out-selling and out-servicing the competition.
