Understanding the Sales Force

As we wade deeper into recession, you will certainly agree that there are two things you must not lose: Customers/Clients. Good/Great Salespeople. I conducted a Google search for "why salespeople quit their jobs" and was surprised to find more than 6 million results for that query! The first page of results was filled with self-serving articles from companies like Gong (artificial intelligence for digital prospecting), Hubspot (marketing platform) and more urging you to leverage their platforms

When it comes to cold calling, you’ll find plenty of books that seem to think it takes 200 pages to properly capture the art. But just like an actual cold call, brevity is the soul of success. That isn’t to say longer calls don’t provide ample opportunity for closing, but it does mean you need a plan in place to encourage a targeted dialogue before the close.

Most people think sales is all about forming strong relationships with prospects. If you do that, they’re going to want to buy from you, right? Not so fast. While I wouldn’t disagree that relationship-building is closely related to successful selling, I believe that relationships are the result of, rather than the cause of, successful selling.

Not long ago, a small group of us were out on our road bikes. One biker hit something on the road, and went down. He broke his wrist trying to brace himself (in addition to scraping himself up pretty badly). We called an ambulance, the paramedics acted quickly. They examined him. They checked to see if anything else was broken, if he was bleeding. They asked him questions like, “What day of the week is it, what’s your name, where are you right now,” checking to see if he might

Recently I discovered a new word, perspicacious. I had not noticed it in common sales vernacular. It means intelligence manifested by an astute understanding or clarity, as in business dealings. Then it dawned on me, with consultative selling, solution selling, and value selling, and a plethora of others, why hadn’t anyone developed “Perspicacious Selling?

If Mike Stevenson’s life were a film script, it would be dismissed as far-fetched. He was expelled at 15 with no qualifications, which led him on a downward journey through homelessness, depression, and drug addiction during the swinging 60s in London.

What is the best way is to start a conversation? Ask the other person a question. We learn by asking questions. Smart business people never stop asking questions. Your prospect probably forms their opinion about you based more on what you ask them, than on what you tell them. “Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers” - Voltaire.

Sounds like a total waste of money, amirite? Many marketing and sales teams face this scenario far too often. And it’s because they’re nurturing their leads the wrong way. For example, when you go to a car dealership, or even when browsing online for a new ride, you wouldn’t go ahead and buy the first car you see, correct?
