1. Penetration Selling -- The Five Steps -- An Overview
Penetration Selling is the powerful, five-step selling system, which was developed by Harry Frisch and introduced in a series of articles, written by Frisch, originally published in The LATEST Magazine, in 1996. The unique approach of the Penetration Selling system is to clearly identify: • The key barriers -- which salespeople run into, in each of the five steps of the sales process, and • The precise techniques – needed for penetrating, deflating and evaporating these barriers. Penetration Selling is a friendly, “Win-Win” system in which the salesperson learns how to smoothly lead his prospects through any and all barriers which stand in the way of the successful completion of the sale.

Overcoming Barriers and Obstacles
There will always be barriers and obstacles between where you are right now and where you want to be. If your desire is fairly strong, you will definitely get started on it. You will probably spend a lot of money and time on it, too. You may even get most of the way there. However, the day you encounter a barrier or obstacle that is bigger than your desire, you will be stopped. That's the bad news. The good news is that there are no barriers or obstacles that can stop you when you are pursuing a Core Desire. The obstacles you encounter may be intimidating, they may slow you down, they may be difficult, they may hurt like crazy- but they won't stop you if you focus on your Core Desires. When you are less than wholehearted, you are easily derailed.
