Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
Born in Spain, but I consider myself a citizen of the world, I have traveled in many countries, and from all of them I have learned much. Thanks to my long experience in exporting to more than 60 countries, throughout Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe and Eastern Europe, now I am glad to share the best way to succeed in sales in my first book: “Sell More and Better, eternal sales techniques beyond the internet” . A mix of fiction and non-fiction, starting with the universal principles of selling, to finally unveil the valuable formula to retain customers and exceed their needs. After the success of the Spanish edition, now it is available the English version.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
My first book, the initial one of a series, is “Sell More and Better, Eternal Sales Techniques beyond the Internet”
It is inspired by the desire to share what has been very useful to me throughout my career, knowing what has really worked, and what has not. The road is done walking, and only those who have already walked can recognize and tell what the curves are like. In that sense, one of the mottos of the book is: “learn in a short time what it takes years to discover”
Do you have any unusual writing habits?

What authors, or books have influenced you?

Right now in the promotion, but plan to write the second volume of the series.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?

Hi Raul,
Sounds really good.
I’ve got to admit, when I came across your interview I was actually looking for mine which I did a few days ago and hadn’t seen it yet – I assumed I was looking at my review when I saw the Bhagavad Gita in the list of books to be taken on the desert island – not very often that two people put down the Bhagavad Gita one after another.I must say I also have a real interest in sales and effective techniques and am more than happy to share your interview or link to your book on my facebook page if you’d care to send it to me.
If you should be interested my book is about techniques which I feel are really useful in experiencing as much wellbeing as you can in your life and using techniques of focus to live extremely positively! (- it’s called ‘Your Mind = Complete Excellence’) .
Well, all the best, and send me a link – I’ll be more than happy to post it on my facebook page – all the very best of luck with your book.
