Biz Tip of The Day: First Know Your Product


First know your product inside out before you present it to a prospective customer. If it is feasible, use it yourself so you can give a firsthand testimonial. Be prepared to answer any negative or positive questions about the product. Be enthusiastic. This may seem basic to you, but sometimes our sales team needs to be reminded just how important the basics are as part of getting someone to buy from them -- Pull Marketing has to be rehearsed over and over to make it work. Persuasion is an art form and this is simply part of it. It takes training and practice to be a successful salesperson.

Biz Tip of The Day: Let Customers Buy From You


Let customer buy from you; don't sell to them. You can accomplish this by following three basic steps. It's called Pull Marketing:
  1. Let prospects know what they will gain from your wares.
  2. Let prospects know why they would be better off buying from you and not your competitor.
  3. Let them know that your price is fair given the added value you include.
Practice the emotional appeal to combat resistance we talked about a couple of days ago and you will find yourself using Pull Marketing – that's when the customer buys from you after you've made your spiel. You allow what you have presented to make them want to buy from you.

  1. Research your targeted audience and visualize yourself in their shoes.

Biz Tip of The Day: Use Emotional Appeal to Combat Resistance


Use emotional appeal to combat resistance in sales. By attacking someone's feeling about something you are denying them those feelings. Instead, there are better ways to handle it:

Prospect: “I hate to spend the money.”
Salesman: “Too bad you feel that way.”
Better answer: “I understand how you feel, unless you look at the benefits and how much our program can save you in a matter of weeks. You will get back your one time investment and many times over if a matter of months”

or

Prospect: “I think it's a waste of time to do the training you suggest.”
Salesman: “You are the only one who thinks that.”
Better answer: “Initially it takes more time. Later your team can train themselves and by that time they will be outselling your competitor. Here are the statistics from two of our program users to bear this out.”

Your better answers, of course, must be truthful and you have to be willing to back them up.
