Tom Hopkins is a distinguished charter member of the National Speakers Association and was among the first to receive its prestigious Council of Peers Award for Excellence. Tom’s talent of teaching in a creative and entertaining style has brought him a tremendous following, as well as constant demand for appearances at regional and national conventions each year.

Tom Hopkins has been the subject of countless articles in publications such as U.S. News and World Report, The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, Personal Selling Power, People magazine, Selling magazine, Entrepreneur magazine, and The Washington Post.

One of America’s most successful and dynamic businessmen, Tom Hopkins did not find success easily. Born in Burbank, California, Tom quit college after only three months. At 19 years of age, married and with a baby on the way, he took a job in construction. It wasn’t too long before Tom decided that this was not the way he wanted to spend the rest of his life, so he quit the construction job and took a job he thought would be easier – selling real estate.

Six months into his real estate career, Tom’s income was just $42 a month. Tom realized at this point that he wasn’t making money in sales because he didn’t know how to sell. After discovering that all the top producers in sales had extensive sales training, Tom set out to learn everything he could about professional selling methods.

Armed with drive, determination and knowledge, Tom Hopkins built his sales volume to over $14,000,000 within five years.

In 1976, Tom founded Tom Hopkins International, Inc., and dedicated his life and his company to teaching and inspiring others through his seminars, books, audio and video training programs. Today, over 35,000 corporations and millions of professional salespeople through the world utilize his professional sales training materials.

Customer Reviews

Excellent "how-to" guide to achieve daily success.
I read this book in 1985 when I was starting a business and was scared to death most of the time. Hopkins' excellent suggestions for enthusiasm, time management, and motivation really helped me get through those tough times. Some of my evangelical Christian friends felt that the book was too humanistic, teaching reliance on power from within yourself rather than relying on a "higher power", but I did not find that to be a problem in spite of my personal philosophy. Regardless of one's spiritual walk, Hopkins' book can be a very ready guide. I recommend it to anyone who is trying to make their personal or business life more successful.

It literally changed my life! A must read for success!
I was able to read this book a few years back. I'm not in sales but was able to use Mr. Hopkins' structured guide to achieve success (whichever way you define it), and feel I'm on the right path. I've read it many times and have loaned it to people I care about.

"A FANTASTIC book on success!"
I first read this book over 3 years ago and it has helped change my life for the better. I am now well on the way to achieveing things 5 years ago I thought impossible. Thank you Tom.
