Best for

The Lost Art of Closing by Anthony Iannarino (2017) is best for coaches who want a stronger practical lens on sales closing, especially when they need clearer language, better judgment, or a more useful client conversation.

Why it matters

Practical book on commitments and next steps, useful with non-pressure framing. For CoachGuido readers, the value is in applying the idea to a real coaching business: clearer offers, better conversations, more professional delivery, and more responsible client expectations.

Editorial angle

Read this book through the CoachGuido standard: what can a new or early-stage coach use to become easier to understand, easier to trust, and better equipped to serve? Pull out the frameworks, questions, or examples that improve sales closing, then translate them into plain client-facing language.

Limitations

Filter the tactics through CoachGuido's ethical standard: no pressure, no fake urgency, no promise that a script or method will close every prospect.
