• Outmanage by arming yourself with information on prospects, customers, and competitors that the CIA would envy - using a system called the "Mackay 66."
• Outmotivate by using his insights to help yourself or your kids join the ranks of Amercia's one million millionaires.
• Outnegotiate by knowing when to "smile and say no" and when to "send in the clones."
