The Professional Job Changing System

Have you gotten an email with a link to SalesOpenings.com?

The link on page 2 summarizes their program with a video presentation: pjcs.

The Book mentioned can be downloaded by Chapter: (Change Chapter # in URL)
Chapter 1.
Chapter 18.
Appendix.

So does anyone know what they charge? Their system has strong parallels to that of the SetFocus placement team.
