In the best selling book <em><strong>Selling is Dead</strong></em>, complex sales expert Marc Miller examines why salespeople and selling teams must redefine their roles and adopt new <strong>strategic selling</strong> frameworks - or risk obsolescence. Drawing on his experience with hundreds of companies, Miller presents scores of case studies along with proven <strong>research</strong> that has enabled his clients to fuse their business development resources into sustainable, market-optimizing growth engines. 
</p>
<p>
Neil Rackham, author of <em>SPIN Selling</em>, wrote in the foreword that &quot;Marc Miller breaks new ground around why new categories of offerings must be sold differently than traditional offerings.&quot; <strong><em>Selling is Dead</em></strong> has been endorsed by General Electric, Siemens, &#38; Marriott - along with thousands of <strong>complex sales</strong> practitioners. It is considered by many as one of the best books on selling complex solutions ever written.&#160; This is especially true when considering how to build a case for change for new, large offerings that entail a diverse (often senior executive) decision base.
