Dan Pink

New York Times bestselling author of When and To Sell is Human

“Calling on his years of experience developing this process, Mo Bunnell explains how to create a richer and more meaningful relationship between the client and seller-expert. In his light, engaging style, Mo advances one of my most deeply-held beliefs: Always be of service to others. I highly recommend this book for anyone who not only wants to be better at sales, but to have stronger relationships as well.”

Keith Ferrazzi

New York Times bestselling author of Who's Got Your Back? and Never Eat Alone

Adam Grant

New York Times bestselling author of Give and Take and Originals

Bill Ruprecht

CEO of Sotheby’s (2000-2014)

“Of all the skills that the thousands of entrepreneurs I have worked with struggle with the most, selling tops the list. The Snowball System presents a clear, effective and ethical way to sell that will turn your fear of selling into joy of serving.”

Pamela Slim

Successful professionals have a system and The Snowball System will help readers be successful. Mo’s system has significantly helped me and many of lawyers at our firm.”

Mike Duffy

“Building relationships is the cornerstone of good business but few people understand how to actually build them and keep them strong. The Snowball System provides the science and methodology behind making relations real and valuable. Bunnell has written a relationship guide for business people and anyone wanting to have an impact on the world.”

Greg Becker

CEO of Silicon Valley Bank

“Great professional services firms invest many years developing their people to solve problems and to accumulate domain expertise. But too often, these same firms invest far too little in training those same people the skills required to do sophisticated business development as partners. The Snowball System outlines a learnable approach to doing business development the right way, a way that will be embraced as authentic, proactive, and impactful to clients. This is a must-read.”

Mike Deimler

Senior Partner and Managing Director of Boston Consulting Group

“The Snowball System is a practical book you can use right from the first chapter—and is a great read—too rare in today’s world. This book isn’t just for business developers, it’s for anyone needing to influence others in an authentic, helpful way. Mo’s book applies our Whole Brain® Thinking approach to a business process as well or better than I’ve ever seen. If you haven’t heard of the HBDI® or the Whole Brain® Thinking model, this is a great introduction. If you have, and always wondered how it could be used in business development, this will be a goldmine.”

Ann Hermann

CEO of Herrmann International
