'Finding academic textbooks that reflect the role of sales managers has been difficult. A gap between corporate sales management tasks and student learning approaches in the classroom has grown. Johnston and Marshall have filled this gap and provided a variety of opportunities to connect student learning, academic requirements, and practitioner realities.' — Dena H. Hale, Southeast Missouri State University, USA 'This is a comprehensive text that delivers all you need to know about B2B selling from a personal selling and a sales management context. It is instructive with excellent supporting learning materials invaluable in the classroom. I will use this text in both my undergraduate and some postgraduate teaching.' — Tony Douglas, Edinburgh Napier University, UK
