Give yourself a heads-up on becoming both experienced & good in sales by learning to customize your selling approach to each individual's needs. Customize the need. The more you know your products the more sincere you will sound. You can also link them to other products by sharing addition benefits they'll receive. You might send them home with a sample which gives you an extra excuse to follow-up. Remember to make notes of all phone conversations on your clients' record cards including non sales related topics chatted about so you can refer to them next time you talk with that particular client. You will also want to diarise your next scheduled contact. Create a comfortable sales experience so your customers feel you have their interest at heart and are not just there for the sales.

Keep your customers by keeping in touch. Don't rely on your customers contacting you from any mail-outs you do. The key here is for you to follow through with follow-up contact. I hear time and time again when a sales person makes that follow-up call the customer often says,Cheap Willis McGahee Jersey, "I'm glad you called, I was meaning to call you but..." and whatever the excuse is. It's not that the customer doesn't want to ring you necessarily but it's not their priority. If you want the sale you make the call! As your product knowledge increases it gives you the ability to speak with authority and relay a certain trust to your customers, with the likelihood of them coming back for repeat business when their experiences with the product or products pan out the way you suggested they would. Then it's really important to listen to your customer. Show them that you care about them and want to fulfil their needs. A great way to show them you are listening to them is to repeat back to them what they have just said.

In a brilliant little book entitled "RFP Sucks,Cheap Dolphins Jerseys!" Tom Searcy counsels thinking hard before responding; ask yourself, he says: Typically A Poor Success Rate with RFPs? I recently reviewed a software firm's list of forecast opportunities - deals that they had forecast to close last year. What proportion of these opportunities involved an RFP? One in five involved responding to an RFP. What was their success rate? Their win rate on RFP's was just 19%. Losses to competitors plus "no decisions" amounted to 81%. Spending All Your Time on RFPs? A year or so ago I talked with a sales director of the market leader in their industry. Whenever anyone sent out an RFP his firm was top of the list to get one. He told me that his salespeople spent most of their time responding to RFP's and invitations to tender. "Do we know anyone within this buying company? Does anyone in our company know his peers in their company? Does our CEO know their CEO or does our CFO know their CFO? Do we know any former employees? Any board members?...If you don't... think about skipping this RFP. You won't be able to present yourself in your best light". Is the euphoria about this opportunity misplaced? The problem is that responding to an RFP is a big job involving not only your time as a salesperson but, more than likely,Cheap Julius Peppers Jersey, a lot of time from pre -salespeople,LaDainian Tomlinson charger Jersey, technical and/or business experts - at least that's how it usually is in the IT space. And if that isn't the case you're probably just snatching at it and sending out barely camouflaged boilerplate. The signals were becoming depressingly clear. I recommended a last ditch attempt - the CEO should write again, this time to the finance director whose department we were fairly sure would be initiating the RFP. But our CEO did not want to do this and had got cold feet about not responding. Against my advice, a decision was made to complete the RFP document and submit our proposal regardless. How Often Does This Happen? A little story: an RFP arrived unexpectedly at a software vendor - from a major building society (now a bank). It was completely out of the blue; nothing had been known about it before the envelope plopped on the mat. Everyone in the firm - a start up firm struggling to gain traction in the market - was excited. "At last... people are beginning to send us RFP's" exclaimed the ecstatic CEO. Asked for my advice, I suggested that the salesperson call the contact name in the RFP and ask for a meeting. He did and the meeting was denied. Nobody in the firm, by the way, had any contacts in the building society. Our knowledge about the building society was zilch. As Tom Searcy says "Don't answer every RFP. Be very selective.....even for those of you who are adamant about avoiding RFP's at all costs there will inevitably come a day when that irresistible RFP lands on your desk. You know the one; you glance at it and can almost smell the boatloads of money and hear the accolades of your business associates. I think we should do this, you say to yourself.." Experience tells us that if an RFP arrives unexpectedly without any prior involvement from us we stand a very small chance (10% -15%) of winning the business. We might be better off chucking it in the bin and going back to cold calling rather than taking the trouble and time to respond. In these cases the buying firm will have already researched the market, may well have met with one or more of our competitors and, worse case (not that uncommon), already have a preferred supplier in mind. But nevertheless they need to go through the motions of a procurement process, searching the market and getting competitive quotations. Hence your RFP, you lucky salesperson! Surprise, surprise in a week or two we got a standard letter telling us that we hadn't been successful on this occasion but our proposal would be kept on file in case...in future etc etc. Phone calls to try to find out who had won proved fruitless; the building society refused to discuss it. Better Off Saying "Thanks But No Thanks"? Who knows? It may be the big one. Or just possibly you may be better off resisting the temptation to respond. Spend your time prospecting, maybe even cold calling! (now there's a topic for another bulletin!). I was fairly forthright in my recommendations which the sales director considered too radical and refused to accept; I never did any work for them. Some time later I met the sales director again. He informed me - without any acknowledgment of our past conversation - that they were now very selective in responding to RFP's. I bit my lip and congratulated him on his smart thinking. Imagine you are a salesperson who has spent most of the month trying to generate new business by cold calling without much success. This morning, out of the blue, your sales manager hands you a request for a proposal (RFP). Phew!...you can stop prospecting. Here's someone who actually wants to buy your product! You can put the phone down and start work right away on a real live one! And the Moral of the Tale? To me the lesson is clear. If you aren't involved in discussions with the buying organisation before the RFP arrives your chances of success are so very small that you should 'no bid' and save the time and expense. But not before you have tried this. Insist on meeting at least the RFP's gatekeeper to understand the drivers for the RFP. Ideally, you want to meet with the sponsor and the people who would be using your product or service. If these requests are denied you are probably going to be what US sales guru Mike Bosworth, calls "column fodder" - the buyer wants to have multiple firms responding so they can demonstrate that they have done a thorough job of gathering competitive bids. Why did they respond to all of them? "We have to... to be in the game" he said "but we've got it down to a fine art now - we use a template and cut and paste so it doesn't take too much time to respond." Their loss rate on proposals submitted was staggering. Looking at a sample of their proposals I could see that 90% of every proposal was pure boilerplate - generalisations about their products features and benefits - not specific in any way to the individual prospect's business. I suggested that our CEO write to the contact person thanking them for the opportunity to provide a proposal but strongly requesting a meeting in order to understand the requirement better. If this request was denied we would respectfully decline to respond in the best interests of both parties. The letter was sent and again our request to meet them was rejected. If there were any questions, however, we were to email them to the contact who would provide a response. They would then circulate the questions and answers to all competing firms. One highly successful consulting company I know will not pitch for a job in an organisation where they don't have a "friend at court". As their overall win rate on all forecast opportunities was 52% (higher than the software industry average of 48%) it was clear that as far as RFP's were concerned this was a disaster area for them. Where RFP's were involved their chances of losing were 4 to 1 - a huge waste of scarce pre- sales and domain resources! How does your RFP success stack up?

Within the past month I have witnessed both observationally and personally, the feeling that "sales" professionals are so focused on the 'sale', they are forgetting the client. What I mean to say is that they don't even appear sincere and if they do it's so insincere that they should not bother. Question: Do you want the sale more than the client? We have a whole plethora of new ways to connect. The two-way internet is chock full of social networking sites where we can gather in tribes of people that care what we are doing. When a sales opportunity comes our way and we are confronted with insincerity,Cheap Joey Porter Jersey, it will be so obvious and feel "uncomfortable" that we will literally run the other way. It does not take much to care about the client/customer. It's called sincerity. Sincerity to your self and to the cause you are trying to sell. Think you aren't selling a cause? You are. You are selling a lot more than just a product/service every time you engage and do your job. It goes without saying that we live in a world of pressure to perform. Do better. Do more. Make more. Raise the bar. However, a sale should be thought of as a way to foster a long-term relationship that will increase with value exponentially as that loyalty is fostered. I think as a sales professional in the modern day and age of business, you should want the client far more than the sale. The client is not stupid. They can pick up very quickly the intentions that sales people have. Once those intentions are reinforced,Cheap Troy Aikman Jersey, then any hope of a loyal client/customer are pretty much gone. The only thing that is left is a sale. And a sale is a short-term fix. What you want are long-term trust relationships,Cheap Tony Gonzalez Jersey, not short-term satisfaction. I know these all sound very basic, but I feel it's missing. No one should want any type of sale over wanting the client/customer; even if it means not making the sale. Focus on the long-term loyalty instead of the short-term fix. Try this with sales. Start off examining how passionate you are about what you are selling and why. If you are still with it then examine your market profile and understand them a little better. When you do engage, have sincere passion and use some good old fashioned active listening. Take time. Make time. Find out what your customer/client really has to say and come up with a solution that makes sense - not an answer to fill quota.

What you'll fret about whether you have ENOUGH information to fill the time allotted. What difference will a few weeks make? Each day that the training lasts longer than necessary, it is adding needless and senseless complexity and confusion to a new rep's repertoire. Moreover, they'd believe it! A one-day program will stretch to a business week. A week will require a month. And a month will call for a full third of a year. Obviously, wasting time in overly long sales training programs is foolish from a monetary standpoint. But it is especially problematic because it needlessly and foolishly elongates a new hire's SPEED-TO-THE-FIRST-SALE. Would you believe me if I told you that those three days still contained a substantial amount of BLOAT? Ironically, as you believe you are investing trainees with more confidence, you're actually eroding it with each passing hour, week, and month. In a separate article I'll describe a FOUR-HOUR sales training program that I conducted that enabled a Fortune 500 company to soar. While organizing the material may be a challenge, this isn't a worry, either. If you simply follow the Anatomy of a Sale, from start to finish,Cheap Philadelphia Eagles Jerseys, you'll be in good shape, there. If I can deploy a new rep in a week's time, she has a chance to prove herself during Week 2. If it takes four weeks to train her, she can't start to succeed until week 5 or 6. The first thing you worry about when designing a new sales training program isn't whether the material will be useful or practical. "Gee,Cheap DeMeco Ryans Jersey, what if I finish a few hours or a day, early?" you'll wonder. I was doing a consulting project at a financial company that offered an eight-week instructional program for it's sales reps. I asked the trainers of that class to reduce its contents to THREE DAYS and to deliver the radically condensed version to me, which they did, under haughty protest. (This violates the ages-old wisdom of the KISS Method: "Keep It Simple, Salesperson.") If I asked this firm's trainers, "Why does your training take several months to deliver?" they'd reply that EVERY MINUTE of it is necessary and filled with essential wisdom. If you've been a successful seller,Cheap Carson Palmer Jersey, you know you're offering good techniques. Heck, they've worked for you, right? After you've delivered your new training program once or twice, you'll see the opposite has happened. Worse, the slower the SPEED-TO-THE-FIRST-SALE, the more insecure reps will feel about their ability to generate business, successfully. As I'm writing this, I'm aware of a company that sells gold coins and bullion. It BOASTS about having a 16-week sales training program. What is there about selling gold that takes this long to learn? The course will grow LONGER than you anticipated. Your stories and jokes will take on lives of their own, and at every turn you'll be tempted to overindulge your expertise and the comments and questions of attendees. If you then train another trainer, he'll add his war stories to yours, and the process of endless elaboration will worsen. Your trainee comes to believe that ALL OF YOUR MATERIAL IS ESSENTIAL to becoming a successful seller. So, when she is finally unleashed, if she hasn't forgotten 80% of what you have covered, she'll tend to over-talk and to confuse, and to waste too much time with the wrong prospects. How brief can great sales training be? These are terrible habits, inculcated by the bloated sales training program she survived. This is especially alarming if you are a hired gun, offering a seminar in a hotel or offsite. Onsite, as a company's sales trainer, if you finish early with a particular group your attendees can simply begin their jobs or resume them.

More information on Sales Techniques here. The word SALES in fact originally meant "to serve"... such a striking difference from today's popular opinion of a sales person. Still this is the proper mindset to adopt. From my consulting and training I have uncovered the useful fact that the best sales people believe with all of their hearts that they aren't selling anything. They actually believe that they are solving people's problems. If a prospect doesn't have a problem that needs to be solved then the best sales professionals,Cheap Jermaine Gresham Jersey, after wishing the person a good day, move on to the next person. The most successful sales people have an absolute passion for solving problems. They truly want to help people achieve their desired state and be rid of the problems that are plaguing them. To develop the sales mindset is to decide that you are a world-class problem solver. Deciding that you are a problem solver allows you to believe in your good nature and fundamental helpfulness in spite of a prospect's resistance. In fact, when a prospect does have resistance,Cheap Johnathan Joseph Jersey, by believing that you are solving problems, you will continue to persuade knowing that your message is true and valuable. I now make a profit helping people and I am proud of that fact. When I first started selling, the part of me that wanted to make lots of money and the part of me that wanted to help people were separate. By switching my mindset to the correct sales mindset, I realized that the two concepts were actually one and the same. There is a specific mindset that a person needs to develop in order to embody the best sales mindset. Having the right mindset gives you a structure on which to stand. The right sales mindset is like the foundation of a house. If you have a solid foundation the floor may creak, the house may shift and settle; but it will stay standing in a storm. The house with a poor foundation, no matter how thick the walls, will eventually fall. Far better to deal with creaky floors than no floors at all. Unfortunately, most people find themselves in a sales position without having the proper sales mindset. The benefits of a strong sales mindset are numerous. Most importantly is a subtle shift in perspective, which provides a meaningful change in results. The average sales professional sees his own profession in a negative light. He hears the media grumbling about some unscrupulous group of people who called themselves sales people and instead were no better than common thieves. The average sales person does not have the proper mindset in which they know the truth about the sales profession. Once the average sales person takes on the proper sales mindset, his or her confidence increases dramatically from the understanding that you truly make a positive difference in the world. That re-framing of the model by which I sold, going from a pushy hard sell to a consultative approach, made all of the difference in my sales and persuasion skills. In one job I even realized I didn't believe in the service enough to keep selling. I had to change jobs to sell a service that I truly believed in. It was by changing my belief that I was able to release the limits on myself that were holding me back. The question I had, of course, was how could I achieve this mindset in myself and in others? What I realized is this mindset is already ingrained in all of us. Throughout human cultures people feel good when they are helping other people. The answer was to stop fighting this natural mindset and embrace it instead. I let go of the feeling that I had to sell everyone I met on my product or service and instead sell it to the people who needed and wanted my help. A good product or service does not sell itself. However,Cheap Chuck Foreman Jersey, a sales person, who genuinely wants to help another person, makes it seem so effortless it's as if the product or service sells itself.

Rather than thinking about how many hours you put into your sales work, try flipping this notion around and think of how much work you can put into your hours. Look for more ways to multitask, particularly the "C" activities. Try making phone calls while looking over your e-mails. You are bound to be placed on hold at some point. One of the best starting points to develop a workable time management strategy is to review carefully what you are doing with your time right now. After all,Cheap Keiland Williams Jersey, how can you plan you time if you are unsure of what you are doing with it in the first place? Take a good look at the "C" activities on your summary and see if you can eliminate any of them right now. You may get lucky and see a few glaring time traps that can be immediately reduced if not eliminated altogether. Some of the other time traps can be handled through multitasking. The next step is to look at the activities within each of these categories and attach a priority to each. For example,Cheap Joey Porter Jersey, time spent prospecting can be noted as an "A" priority, while time spent reading and responding to e-mail messages and faxes and regular mail would be assigned a "B" or "C" priorities letter. One important rule that underlies every step of effective time management is that "A" activities are done before "B" activities and "B" activities are done before "C" activities and so one down the list. Write down all of your activities each day, from the time you get up until the time you go to bed, during a one -week period. Be prepared to be shocked at the amount of time that is taken up by interruptions, waiting, administrative work, meetings, looking for lost items,Cheap Randy Moss Jersey, and chit-chat. This shock is the first tip-off that it's time to manage your time. The Week in Review Where has all the Time Gone? In reviewing your week, batch and categorize all of your activities by functions. You will probably have categories with headings such as Business, Social, Recreational, Personal, and Other.

Offering an Upgraded Product or Service For A Fraction More Than They Are Already Paying. I have a client who operates a business where he sells and installs flat screen televisions. His competitors are Best Buy, Walmart, etc. Each customer that is ready to purchase a flat screen TV in the neighborhood is offered to upgrade their television to a significantly larger TV for 10% of the cost of the one they are paying. His customers are getting more and he is getting more per sale. Everyone Loves to Feel Safe & They Are Willing to Pay For It. A client of mine who manufactures musical instruments has the ability to offer clients a lifetime warranty. Their standard warranty is 10 years however a customer can upgrade to a lifetime warranty for less than 5% of the cost of the instrument. In other words the customer is being protected against themselves for the life of the instrument for what amounts to pennies a day. Customers are happy to pay for the security and those that don't have a 10 year warranty. Complimentary Products Or Services Are a Win For Everyone. While this isn't new it is amazing to me how many companies fail to offer products or services from other complimentary companies when a customer is in buying mode. For example I have business partners who sell my products to their clients. Their clients get additional value and help and both of us benefit financially from the transaction. These 3 strategies will increase the value of each sale dramatically. The easiest and fastest way to put these methods into place in your business is to pick one start offering it in the next few days. One of the hardest parts of being a small business owner is finding a new customer. Once you have that customer in front of you maximizing the sale is critical. For those who are thinking "I don't want to s bleed my clients dry" that's not what I am talking about. Don't worry that some people will say no to your offer. They key is to focus on the percentage of customers who are more than happy to purchase additional products or services from you. Regardless of your product,Cheap Nick Mangold Jersey, service,Cheap Felix Jones Jersey, or customer buying patterns these 3 strategies will help you increase the average value of each sale as well as differentiate you from your competition. These strategies can be used online or offline. For maximum increase in your sales using these 3 strategies in both your physical store and online presence is recommended. Each business is different and you may be asking yourself questions such as "what should I offer?", "what can I offer?",Albert Haynesworth titans Jersey, or "where do I find these products or services to offer?"

Planners are asking me all the time, "Ciara how do you sell couples on your services when you're fees are a lot higher than other planners in your area?" I think the reason facebook and twitter are becoming such hot hubs for attracting new business is because you actually see what someone is like on those social networking sites. And the most successful people using social networking for business are not the ones who are updating their status all the time about their upcoming promo... I was sitting at my desk trying to think about what I wanted to write today. Do I talk about the economy? Do I talk about mindset? Do I talk about bridal fairs? As I sat here pondering about my topic choice one of my bichon shih tzu's came into the office. His name is Chayse and he's got attitude. When he wants me to pay attention to him he's not subtle at all, he just sits and looks at me and starts whining. Why Is It So Hard To Be Ourselves? So you're probably wondering,Cheap Paul Oliver Jersey, "Where is Ciara going with this?" It's the ones who tell you what they had for lunch and share pictures of their latest vacation. When I was in New York recently with a bride wedding dress shopping we went to 4 different salons, but at Mark Ingram Bridal Atelier the experience was amazing and we connected with both Mark and his salon manager. They were super authentic with us (as was not the case elsewhere). And that's where my bride bought her dress. All the other stores had dresses that looked great on her too but it really came down to who she wanted to deal with, who she felt she connected with the most. Do you ever feel like there are so many "rules" for wedding planners out there? Guidelines of how we should act and dress? What we're really feeling is the burden of putting made up expectations onto ourselves. Are You Authentic With Your Brides? You are selling YOU to each bride and groom you meet with. Once you come to terms with this it's really easy to make sales. Are you truly being yourself with your brides? Or are you trying to fit into this mold that you think that they want? When we do that we don't attract the brides that are going to be good for our business because they are a fit for the fake you... not the authentic you. Rockstar Advice And of course I picked him up. Well, as they sat on my lap, happy and content I realized that they both got what they wanted by doing one similar thing. And that it's one of the hardest things for entrepreneurs to do. You are the face of your business and YOU are what you're selling to brides and grooms. Remember that you are selling the experience of working with you and in order to do that you MUST be authentic and establish a real connection with the couples you want to work with. So How Do You Sell Brides & Grooms On Services? I had a meeting with a potential bridal couple tonight. I used to get really nervous about meeting couples,Cheap New York Giants Jerseys, impressing them, selling them. But I learned that by being myself, by being authentic and real with them they sign with me. In fact, this one couple actually mentioned how "real" we were and that they hadn't had that experience with other planners they'd met. I told them that we really liked them and wanted to work with them and they signed on with us. I was authentic and I asked for what I wanted. Soon my other bichon shih tzu Kohl was toddling up and he wanted attention too, but he's got a different approach. He gets as close to me as he can and he looks up at me with big brown eyes and his little tail wagging. He gets picked up too. They were authentic,Cheap Hakeem Nicks Jersey, true to their nature and they (in their own little way) asked for what they wanted. Well, the answer is that I'm authentically ME. I'm not selling them on what's listed in the contract, I'm selling them on working with me. Other wedding planners out there can all provide to some degree what I've got in my list of services, but the big difference is who's providing the service. And guess what? You're happier and easier to connect with when you're being yourself!

Now,Cheap Eli Manning Jersey, the question you should ask yourself is: Are You an Order Taker or an Order Maker? What is it? What's the difference? Simply this - the salesperson must create a specialized situation,Cheap San Francisco 49ers Jerseys, and place people in the market who didn't feel that way when they walked in the store. It has been said that sometimes a good salesperson sells to buyers who don't think they want what they buy. The heads of ninety-nine out of every hundred companies employing salespeople reflects that sentiment. Often the main limit to the salesperson's earning power is a self-imposed one. Let's take a look at the order-taker, not as a negative example, and not as an object of pity, but only to make a point. Chris the "order-taker" visits on Smith, Brown, Jones,Cheap Steve Johnson Jersey, James, and Robinson. They are not in the market. Then she opens her portfolio in Harrison's store and Harrison buys. I am sure you know the question in the mind of the person starting out with a cell phone in one hand and an expense check in the other is: "How can I sell?" These people are working more than the average salesperson because they are better than the average. And here is what they have found produce real results. The order-taker accepts the advantage of the situation he finds. But the order maker, a professional salesperson creates specialized situations to suit his purpose. Consider the following letter by an active head of one of the largest software company in America: She encountered a favorable situation; she was standing directly under the apple with a bushel basket when it dropped from the tree. That is what makes it possible for the order-taker to exist. If the order-taker calls on enough people they are bound to find a certain percentage needing what is sold and ready to order. "Results are the only things that count. We are perfectly willing to pay a salesperson $100,000 a year if they deliver the goods; we are willing to pay $750,000 a year if that person delivers, and a person's earnings from $7500 a month up to almost anything is in their own hands." The question in the mind of the salesperson producing now is: "How can I increase my sales?" Are You an Order Taker or an Order Maker? The reason why is this: the good salesperson makes the buyers realize they want what is being offered. Understand in advance, please, that we offer no theories. The source of the methods offered herein derives from the operation of thousands of successful salespeople in varied lines the country over. Let's leave the subject of order taking. Let's deal with the problem of the person who really sells. Let this sink in deeply. The order-taker canvasses looking for people who want to buy. However, the professional salesperson tries to make every person he or she calls on wants to buy. Mind you, she didn't sell anything. Harrison was ready; the order taker had the goods, showed them and took the order. Why? Simply because the prospect was in the market, ready to buy.

So to help you succeed at putting high-end design jobs in your portfolio, here are 3 simple tips that can easily increase your creative opportunities and add big dollars to your bank account. When you follow these steps you will be able to charge higher fees, honestly and comfortably, just like I do. 3) Don't skimp on uncovering the source of frustration. The truth is, I find that it is actually easier to sell high-end clients than lower-end ones. Why would that be? High-end clients already know that they can't solve the problem on their own, yet they have the financial resources to hire someone to do it and they are accustomed to searching for the solution. If you think that selling a high-end client or job means that you need to sell harder, you are wrong. I enjoy taking my time to get to know this type of client, working on setting up a sense of connection, understanding and intimacy in the developing of our relationship. I let my prospective client know that I am interested in them, and that I value them and their opinions. After all, I am interested in a long-term relationship Now, high-end clients are not going to just come running saying "help me, help me!" They need to know that their investment is going to pay off as a great experience, as well as a beautiful design solution. Your potential client is sophisticated. They suspect that you do need to sell this job and they are going to be wary. So, don't do it! Stop and take a big breath,Cheap Logan Payne Jersey, and relax. Put your focus on developing the relationship with this client, find out who they are and how to connect with them. After all, you want this to be a long-term relationship not a one shot deal. Take your time and ask concerned and focused questions about what they have been struggling with and are unable to solve on their own. Do not jump into "I can fix this mode," keep listening. Approach your next big opportunity with confidence, grace and ease,Cheap Eddie Royal Jersey, remembering that it is a long- term relationship that you are creating,Cheap Chris Harris Jersey, one that could last for years, and one that can bring you tens of thousands of dollars or more. You will find that you will love the fascinating people that you get to work with, the money that you make, as well as the wealth creative opportunities that come your way. Remember you must ask thoughtful questions to uncover important and telling information that will let you know if this potential high-end client is a good "fit" with you and your individual style of working. While you are listening you must decide is whether or not you want to work with them. High-end clients are the best to work with... 2) Don't jump into explaining the cost of your services too soon. Your client will undoubtedly ask about the cost of services early on in your conversation. This is where you need to, again, curb your desire to immediately leap in and help. Say instead, " I would be happy to talk about the cost of design services. May I ask you a few questions first?" You need to discover, in depth, what the design problem is and what difficulties it is causing, before talking about how much a solution costs. 1) Do not jump into selling immediately. So, knowing WHAT to say and WHEN to say it is not hard. Once you know these tips you can apply them to any conversation where you want to have a positive outcome. Now you know, that if your potential client could solve the design problem on their own they would have done so. I am personally an "up" sort of person and I don't like to focus on negative things, but think about this; if you don't find out why they aren't getting what they want and how that impacts their life at all sorts of levels, you probably won't get this job. And that means that you won't be able to help them. When you take the time to find the source of all that unhappiness, you set yourself up as the solution to their problems. You have set the stage for them to choose to feel better now, by hiring you.

How do you know what your customer needs? Simple: ask something like, "What are your needs?" "How can I help you?" Or you may even try, "What are you looking for, I'm sure I can help you find it?" Of course, this all depends on the type of sales you're in, and your personal selling process. If you're cold-calling, knocking on doors in the neighborhood, you don't want to ask, "What are you hoping for by the end of this conversation?" Your answer will be a slamming door! 3. Motivate the Customer to Buy The final aspect of this list of sale-closing techniques is to simply motivate the purchase now. This is commonly referred to as "urgency," and can be set any number of ways. Sale-closing techniques and opinions on the subject are as wide as the Nile River in flood season, but the truth of the matter is that they can be categorized into three broad headings: assessing customer's need, eliminating sales resistance, motivating them to buy. Armed with this information, you can close more sales and win more business. One word of wisdom before you attempt any of this, however: be ethical in your selling. The world is inundated with snake-oil salesmen, and they get all the press it seems. One of the fundamentals in selling anything is to gain and keep your customers' trust. Win their trust every step of the way. 1) Assess the Customer's Needs In other words: do not spin your wheels or waste their time trying to sell an pair of shoes to a man with no legs. It's unethical, pointless, and a colossal train wreck on your career just waiting to happen. This is true for any sales, in any industry. Sell your prospect what he or she needs, and you'll close more deals. Even if you did close a deal selling something to your customer a product or service he or she didn't need, a few weeks or months down the road this may simply turn around and bite you. Don't hurt your long-term business for immediate gratification. The beauty of assessing your customer's needs during the sales process is at least two-fold. First, it lets their guard down. You are building rapport. Secondly, the more information you have about your customer, the more "ammunition" you'll have to answer their objections later. Usually expiration dates on special offers are used to introduce the customer to your company. "Act now, these won't last at this price!" is another example (and do yourself a favor: don't word it that way). Urgency works if it's subtle,Cheap Sidney Rice Jersey, and not blunt, however. Here's another fine example: "You'll be our only injury lawyer in this new L.A. phone directory, if you get the ball rolling today." Another way to eliminate sales resistance, besides your first impression,Cheap Camouflage Realtree Jerseys, is to win their trust during every stage of the conversation. Be on their side - you shouldn't be "the salesman," but their advocate, on their team. If you can save them money by recommending a sale, or the like, then do so! You will also want to be sure that you don't come off as pushy. 2. Eliminating Sales Resistance Eliminating sales resistance is a fancy way of saying "removing obstacles to buy." This is done a number of ways. First off, your first impression counts plenty. Make sure you look presentable,Cheap Warren Sapp Jersey, that you have fresh breath, maintain eye contact and learn the art of "mirroring" your customer. You don't want to be brash if your potential customer is quiet - speak in a way that your customer feels naturally inclined to speak with you. The whole art of creating a customer flood is to discover and then close on what your prospect needs or wants. Using these sale-closing techniques to win your customer's trust will step up your success rate, so long as you integrate them into your personal selling process. That being said, here are some of the cream-of-the-crop sale-closing techniques: Lastly, be willing to part with a freebie/no-risk trial of your product or service, or even a discounted introductory price. These do really well to lower objections of price. When price is a main objection, the real question behind it is, "What is the real value of what you're selling?" Benefits highlight this value to the customer. Free trials allow the customer to try the service or product, as your guest, and thus to experience the value of what you're selling. The obvious way to remove obstacles is to answer objections, and be prepared to do so. Expect objections, in fact. Make it a point to study your past conversations with other customers, and when you notice trends in objections, you can be sure that you'll face those same objections repeatedly. The best way to answer objections is to highlight the benefits and advantages that your product/service gives to the customer - does it save time? Money? Lives? Every objection should end with highlighting some benefit(s) to the customer.

As a favor to me, a guy by the name of Eric Marcy, who is a friend of mine in Chicago, mentors some of the younger sales representatives at my firm. The other day, we read a blog from a sales consulting company discussing how anybody can learn sales. I don't blame this company, well, then again I do. On the first hand, they are trying to make money, on second hand, they are misleading the organizations whom they are consulting for. Quickly, we agreed; sales is not for everybody. You can't force sales. You can't teach sales. Yes,Cheap Charger Jerseys, you can teach somebody to ask questions to uncover needs,Cheap Darren Sharper Jersey, though aside from being in the boardroom with them, what are you supposed to do? These firms are about 25 years late to the dance as sales is taught when you are younger. Now, there are many consulting firms who have statistics about the rise in sales after they go help a company. I have two theories as to why this is. The first is that these employees are not top sales representatives or they are made aware as to how much the company just spent on these lessons and begin to move their you know what. Also, when you go in and train a Fortune 500 company, there are too many variables to truly tell who made a difference. I'm not saying that sales consulting does nothing, but it is the personality of the person which counts and a person's personality is mostly shaped by his or her family. Don't mistake that I am saying that the salesman with the most "best friends" wins. It is the salesman who understands that his or her clients are paying a lot of money for the service which their company provides and they should be treated with respect and appreciation. Therefore, all the sales people who are reading this and my presumption is that if you've made it the whole way through, you have some agreements with me, should thank their parents and their friends for making them the sales professional which they are today. Additionally, children are taught at an early age the two most important words that a sales representative has in their inventory, "thank you." People who are taught to appreciate the actions of others are miles ahead of the game. Those who are not, yes, can skate their way through sales for a bit. However, once a client puts a $1,000,000 into their product, the purchasing company is in for quite a good ride as to getting that person to do any sort of account management. I try to teach this to my vendors and the only way I know how is to be upfront with them about my expectations and the subsequent ramifications if they are not meant. Not only is it the way someone is raised and the values they are brought up with, being effective at business development has to do with education as well. Let's begin with the upbringing aspect. Children mimic their parent's behavior. Therefore,Cheap Jason Taylor Jersey, if their parents show them that being rude is acceptable, than they will grow up, mostly as there are exceptions, thinking this is the correct way to handle things and treat people. Also, I'll never forget and am quite grateful that one day, while driving in the car with my mother and my best friend from grade school, my mother reprimanded me for using the word "good" as an adverb. My household was not in the least bit strict, however speaking like an educated, sophisticated person was a hard rule. Sales Skills Are Taught At an Early Age Not Later in Life The author introduces： 24H JERSEYS is a privately owned sports goods company with a history of nearly 4 years.We have the professional factory behind us manufacturing all sports jerseys.Click here Read More

GATHERING DATA AT THE WRONG TIME DOESN'T HELP BUYERS BUY,Cheap Jack Lambert Jersey I recently spoke with a potential vendor who I was referred to. She automatically assumed I was ready to buy because of the referral (I certainly was not), and she went ahead gathering data (that I found myself very reluctant to give since I didn't know her or trust her yet) and trying to sell her services. When I told her that until I knew how I would have a good chance of getting the results I wanted I wouldn't be able to buy, she was quite adamant: "You'll know when I give you results." Well, in my mind that's kinda foolish. That means I have to buy her services, pay her a lot of money, go through internal disruption, and I won't know until AFTER all that whether I'm going to be successful or not? Before I'd be able to choose her, I'd need to figure out the criteria I'd use to know if her suggestions, her personality, my needs,Cheap Kenneth Moore Jersey, my market, my folks who would be working with her, my company, would act together in a way that would bring me the change I'm seeking. And if it would be worth the money and disruption. She'd have been far better off to have used a Facilitative Question: GOING INTERNAL You can add a new set of skills to what you're doing already, and actually become a part of your buyer's buying decisions. And, when it's time for you to understand, you will be there with just the skills you need to do it. But first, let's help manage the private process that you've left unattended until now. Where do buyers go when they say, "I'll call you back?" They go internal, to make sure the department heads are in agreement,Cheap Buffalo Bills Jerseys, that the status quo can allow change without creating a mess, that the historic fight between rival teams is cleaned up, that the new software will work with the old. Until or unless they manage the internal stuff of relationships, initiatives, rules, etc., they will not be in a position to buy anything. Regardless of their 'need' or 'pain.' Sales is faulty and only manages needs assessment and solution placement where it is imperative that you understand. I'm suggesting you acquire an add-on skill set to merely act as a GPS system that says left/right/left, through the maze of the types of decisions buyers must make as they consider their internal, systemic issues that hold their status quo in place. Until they do this, they can't buy from you anyway. But when you use Buying Facilitation first with them and do some neutral navigation that is system- and change-based, you will be placed on their Buying Decision Team. Until you realize there are actually two different types of decisions buyers must make - the vendor/solution decision that you handle, and the behind-the-scenes issues that they must handle first - you will be trying to understand too early and not be present to help them with the main decisions they must make first. How would you know before we begin that you would have a good chance of reaching your goals? What would need to happen within your organization to make sure they are ready for the type of change you are requiring? Once a buyer manages the internal issues sellers can use rapport and sales and understanding skills to make sure the solution is superb. But trying to understand the personal stuff is impossible. It's possible to add a front end to what you're already doing successfully and use a different skill set to help buyers maneuver through their internal pitfalls. But it's not sales. And it has absolutely, absolutely nothing to do with understanding: as an outsider you'll never understand. Can I understand if, in the example above, your spouse is thinking of separation? Or how to handle the bank if you were overdrawn for 3 months last year? The first thing buyers do - well before they are ready to choose a vendor or a solution - is to figure out what needs to happen internally for them to be assured that they can achieve excellence AND keep their organization in tact. THEN they are ready for you to understand their need and place your solution. The sales model does not help the buyer at this initial part of their decision cycle because it's private, unconscious, idiosyncratic, and for insiders only. But they must do it - and we needlessly wait as they do. It would like finding the house or car of your dreams before you discussed a move or a purchase with your spouse or bank. When people first hear about Buying Facilitation, they ask: 'But if we can't ask about needs and discuss our solution, how do we sell?' The short answer is, you don't. At least not when you are accustomed to. Because that's not the first thing buyers need from you. The buyer first needs assistance navigating around their off-line decision issues. See, we actually enter our buyer's sphere far too early in their decision cycle. And we end up attempting to gather needs, understand, and place product before a buyer really knows how to have this conversation with you. Think of moving. You and your spouse find the perfect house. Are you going to buy it? Well, that depends on if you can get a loan, or if the school district is viable, or if your spouse really wants that separation, or... And these things are private and off-line and have absolutely nothing to do with the house or the realtor. It's not about my need or her solution. It's about the issues I need to manage internally in order to allow change to take place in a way that minimizes disruption.

There is one often ignored option that leads to more lost sales than any other option. This is the option of doing nothing. Doing nothing is always an easier choice than doing something unless you prove that idea false. What they want to know is if your option is a better option for them than the options that don't pertain to you. They want to know the way your service is delivered matches the way they perceive as the best way for getting the help they need. You can help them by helping them review the pros and cons of all their options not just the option of working with you. In other words,Patriots 2012 Super Bowl Jerseys, you have to help them tell you how things will be when they have what they want. Keep probing into the ways it will impact them in other aspects of their lives. You can literally see the value in the eyes of the potential client as they describe these things to you and feel their momentum shifting from doing nothing to having to take action now. When you think about options you probably think about one way you might work with a potential client versus another way you might work with a potential client. You will need to do that when you hold a serious conversation about working together. However,Cheap Matt Leinart Jersey, when you put these service options too early in the conversation you miss out on all your opportunities to work with a potential client. They will also compare options that are similar and different in price to your service. Most service providers miss the mark when it comes to price. You think your buyers price concerns are about paying less. Their real price concerns are about perceived value. They want you to help them see the potential value they can expect from your service. When your potential client thinks of options they are thinking of all their options. They know there are options that are similar to your services in delivery. They know there are options that are different from your services in delivery. Buyers go through a process when they are deciding to buy. This process can happen in an instant,Cheap Andre Smith Jersey, or it can take a very long time. The process is shortened when the seller does a good job of matching the buyer's process. You don't prove the option of doing nothing as the easier option false by openly challenging your potential client. You do it by helping your potential client contrast their present to a detailed vision of the future they desire. This has to come from them not you.

If you have a lot of information to share or gather, consider a different approach than email. It may be more effective to convey a project update in a project status report and ask just two questions in the email. Or, to present a recommendation in a proposal document and tell your contact in the email that you've included a great idea in the third paragraph on page one. Recognize that email is an interruption that they typically haven't allotted time to manage into their day like they would a scheduled meeting. You can't expect to get all the answers you would during a meeting, in the course of one email. You thought your detailed sentences would streamline the sales process, simplifying your prospect's effort. You tried to help your client avoid another meeting by sending your list of questions through email instead. Consider who you're emailing. If you're selling to small and midsize companies, the decision maker you're working with is frequently the owner or a top executive with multiple responsibilities across the company from performing work to setting the business strategy. Several company presidents I work with sell, install, manage technical consultants, and plan the direction of the company all in a normal day's work. If you're selling to enterprises, your key contact is most likely a manager with too many assignments on his plate, acquired as the company downsized, as well as multiple vendor contacts. They're all very busy people wearing too many hats. And what happened? No response. Start a conversation. Limit how much you ask or share. Keep your emails brief so they're a quick read and simple to respond to. Keep in mind that email can be a conversation. It's okay to ask for clarification, or ask the next question. 434 words,Cheap Brett Favre Jersey, no matter how well organized, are still a lot to read, absorb and reply to. If possible, try to stay under 175 words. Write your emails to look fast. The faster it looks to handle, the better your chance of getting a quick response. Vary your paragraph lengths. Avoid long paragraphs. Use bulleted lists, limiting the number of items to five or less. Keep your signature short. Long signatures give the appearance of long emails. Make it simple to reply. Ask only two or three questions at once. Questions become action items when sent via email. Your objective is to reduce the number of to-dos you place on your contact to speed their ability to reply. If you have ten questions,Cheap Tennessee Titans Jerseys, consider scheduling a meeting. I hate long emails. They take too long to read and typically include action items I just don't have time for. No doubt you've experienced it, too. Your customers are no different and it's impacting your ability to close sales. Sure, you carefully word your email,Cheap Barry Sanders Jersey, expanding your questions to avoid being misunderstood, or outlining a great recommendation. You format it with underlining and bolding to call attention to critical details. You use bullets to make it simple to read. You're friendly throughout, sometimes even using a pretty color instead of boring black or blue. Neither your prospects nor your customers appreciate the effort you put into that perfectly crafted 434 word email. Make your emails easy to respond to and you'll discover that both customers and prospects you're working with will respond more promptly and keep your sales process moving forward. But it didn't work. You received no response because it was felt too time consuming and difficult to do. Use these tips to make your emails actionable.

With all the innovative studies,Cheap Eric Berry Jersey, information and ground breaking discoveries in the area of human success dynamics, we have missed the signs of the times. The most established training methods, programs and seminars have the philosophies and techniques that were relevant and used over 50 years ago in business and sales. Don't get me wrong; it's not that these techniques and principles are not relevant today. They are applicable in context as a principle but need have their application updated to the current times. Part of that update incorporates this current marketing trend called Relationship Marketing. Offer a monthly update. Give information on lifestyle and industry specific topics. Offer free assessments, discoveries and fact-findings white papers. Sell them on your process not your product. Have a series of questions that you can ask at a deeper than surface level to show that there is more to know than what the Internet offers for information.Relationship Marketing is the new thing business is talking about and without it your business will miss a fantastic way to establish solid sales. Make your client database work for you by becoming the information resource of choice for your clients. Let's build better client loyalty! Relationship Based Marketing is the concept of building a relationship with a potential client with your business long before they need your services. To maximize this idea, you would want to establish yourself as an industry specialist or a resource center. That way whenever they need help wading through all the available information that is available to us they will look to your business for information. Years ago,Cheap Champ Bailey Jersey, salespeople were the gatekeeper to the information the consumer needed to make purchases. Today's business and sales people must educate long before a potential client makes a purchase. Today buyers have access to information that business and sales people didn't have 20 years ago. The challenge for them is there is too much information for clients to discern what is relevant. As business people, our role hasn't changed much; it really is the same in principle. The client still wants us to be knowledgeable, reliable and honest. Our job is to know the sales process and guide them gently through the process to make sure they have clearly identified what they want. Then, we help them get it. Solid business principles can be applied in today's context. I have learned over the last number of years that change comes and most people miss it. They keep running their business, doing the same old things and habits, day in and out. That means they stick with what they know,Cheap Zach Miller Jersey, never challenging the status quo. The point being that this particular phenomenon applies to what I see in the sales training and business coaching industry. The old way of doing business development is new again. There's a new kid in town and his name is Relationship Marketing. Business and sales professionals are seeing the benefit of this unique strategy and applying it. It is critical to build tight relationships these days. And building those relationships looks different than it did years ago. Here's a new way of doing business development: Here are some thoughts to help you build solid relationships with your client: The author introduces： 24H JERSEYS is a privately owned sports goods company with a history of nearly 4 years.We have the professional factory behind us manufacturing all sports jerseys.Click here Read More

ALWAYS do what you say you will do. Virtually everyone has encountered a liar, cheat or charlatan in their life. From the curbsider who sells you a used car that is a lemon, to the sales person who says that 'everything' is covered under the extended warranty program, to the person who tells you an expensive system is guaranteed to improve your company's results. We've all been there. And so have our customers and prospects. Sounds simple, doesn't it. After all, you're honest and would never consider misleading a customer or prospect, right? Well, let me ask you this: have you ever forgotten to make a follow up call, been late for an appointment, or stretched the truth about a product's capabilities? Then, my friend, you have just given your prospect a reason to doubt you. And in today's highly competitive sales world, there are many people who are willing to stretch the truth, mislead, and misinform prospects in order to capture a sale. It's a safe bet that all of your prospects have encountered at least one of these sales reps. Is it any wonder that they won't take your call or that they are skeptical about your offer? Can you blame them for refusing to listen to your pitch? Since the beginning of time people have had to deal with liars, cheats and charlatans. One of the most famous was Charles Ponzi, who in the early 1900's, invented the "Ponzi scheme" which is a scam that relies on a pyramid of investors who contribute money to a fraudulent program. The most recent, high profile cheat was Bernie Madoff who bilked almost 65 billion (yes, billion!) dollars from investors over a period of twenty plus years. This means that you need to find ways of establishing your credibility. You need to demonstrate that you are reliable and trustworthy. Although you may behave in an ethical manner, new prospects may still harbor seeds of doubt until you prove otherwise. Here is a simple way to achieve this. However, these pitchmen know how to manipulate people, tug on their emotions,Cheap Desmond Bishop Jersey, concoct a great tale and spin their story to each person's motives which,Cheap Redskins Jerseys, in many cases, is get-rich-quick. They often develop a close relationship with their 'victim' and know exactly how to convince them to invest. Unfortunately, you don't get as many second and third chances as you used to. That means you need to be ultra-aware of the promises and commitments you make, particularly, if they're made in the spur-of-the-moment. Before you agree to something, make sure that you can deliver. If you anticipate challenges in your ability to execute—and this includes your company—think twice before you make that commitment. Even a minor mistake can cause a prospect to label you as a liar, cheat and charlatan. Back in the early eighties, a good friend of mine came across an advertisement that stated she could earn several hundred dollars a week stuffing envelopes. My friend was a stay-at-home mom so she thought this would be a great way to supplement her and her husband's income. She sent a 'small' investment of $32 (to cover the mailing & registration costs) and waited patiently for the materials and information to arrive. (You can see where this is going, can't you?). After several weeks of waiting and a call to the Better Business Bureau she came to realization that the ad and the program was a fraud. A charlatan is the ultimate sales person although they are incredibly unethical. They possess the ability to persuade, cajole, encourage and convince people to part with hard-earned money. And not just a few dollars, but tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and in some cases,Cheap Dustin Keller Jersey, even millions of dollars. As an outsider, we shake our head and think, "How could people fall for that?" So where am I going with this?

There are many factors that differentiate and often impact how effective one is in sales. While most trainers emphasize sales technique, and it is undeniably important, an even more important factor is whether the sales person "closes" the deal. No matter how superb one's presentation is, if the sale is not "asked" for, it will rarely come on its own. Of course, there are exceptions, but how successful one is as a salesperson is determined by one's closing ratio, or percentage of sales per presentations give. While a certain number of sales may just "fall in one's lap," the effective salesperson realizes that he must close in an effective way. Each individual finds different techniques more effective for their personality, and their "comfort zone." It is important to understand that good closing technique does not necessitate being pushy, or overtly aggressive. In fact, quite often the opposite is true. Sometimes, it is as simple as asking,Cheap Michael Bush Jersey, "What do you think?" or "Doesn't that make sense?" and then effectively listening and waiting for a response. 4. Then, follow up by recreating the need and "getting back on track," by saying, "In light of this... " 1. Restating the objection or question, and asking if that is indeed the objection, so as to have the ability to address the true concern. A simple way to do that is to say something like, "In other words, you are concerned about..." Sales people should look forward to objections. I have given many courses on "Answering Objections," and often written about this. If someone states an objection, following a simple step by step, five step procedure, will generally effectively respond to the question. The fifth step in that process, is closing once again. These five steps are: Salespeople must avoid the trap of interrupting, and in my three plus decades of training people in this discipline, I have emphasized a concept that I refer to as "Z.T.L." or "Zip the Lip." Simply stated, one should think of this as a sort of game, and after a question is asked by the salesperson to a customer or client, the first one to speak will almost invariably "lose," meaning if the customer responds he will buy, and if the agent speaks first, most clients will not buy. 5. This fifth step is the one that for some reason many individuals in sales never get back to and do, yet, without this step, the probability of a sale being given is severely diminished. This step is the close, where you can say something as simple as "Doesn't it make sense to... today? Then wait for a positive response, and continue with the two or three option approach, thus avoiding the "yes or no" alternative. For example, ask which of the two or three options is best for them. Again,Cheap Brent Celek Jersey, zip the lip, wait for a response, and then take the order. 3. This step is to actually answer the objection slowly and carefully and thoroughly. 2. Next, it is essential to empathize. One should understand that this is far different from sympathizing.
