    About this ebook

    Every writer has a muse. I have my sister, who through the years has been an educator, a kind soul, an intelligent mind, and the true possessor an overflowing heart. How blessed I am for the sister I have! Also her husband, my brother-in-law, Michael, a better friend just cannot be found.

    Author

    Edward Hunter

    Born in New York, Edward Hunter spent a great amount of years living in Asia. It was in beautiful Thailand that he first began to put his love for Asian art into writing. He had a weekly column in the Bangkok Post entitled, “Antique Hunter,” as well as columns in Living Magazine, and was used as an authority by various media from around the world. When he returned to the United States in the mid 1980’s, he decided to switch careers and entered the intriguing world of high end retail. He worked for Sulka, Loro Piana and now works in Tailored Clothing at the Bergdorf Goodman Men’s store, located on Fifth Avenue in New York City. He is proud to be a founding member of BG 100, an organization created by Bergdorf Goodman to acknowledge the achievements of the top 100 selling associates. He will quickly tell you that it is service to the client that makes a salesperson’s reputation. Yet, by creating his card words, he has altered the value of his business card so far that, after the very first sale, a client almost always remembers to ask for “the poet”, “the philosopher”, “the salesperson who writes on the back of his cards”, or just “Hunter”. Four ways to selling success instead of the traditional one. Or as one of his many clients once said “it’s like receiving an American Fortune Card, not unlike eating at a Chinese restaurant and receiving a Chinese Fortune Cookie!”
