Sue Barrett has been researching and interviewing highly successful sales women in Australia about what makes them highly successful and why they are businesses' best kept secret until now. Reporting on her research and international studies hear how women sell, why they are outselling men and what we can learn from them. This is not a feminist manifesto, nor anti men instead Sue is taking the the best of both genders pointing out the interesting shift in sales dynamics and what we all need to do to be successful in sales careers. Sue will be launching her Sell Like A Woman book in 2011.

This makes her stand out from the usual crowd of existing business speakers. She believes that everyone lives by selling something and that all of us, no matter our background, can achieve excellence through purposeful action.
