Notice to ALL Salespeople...Drop the gimmicks and start Helping!

I have to say, the sales arena has become a very diluted pool of people looking for the easy money over actually trying to help anyone.

"What's it gonna take to put you in one of these?"...I mean, seriously? What kind of ridiculous sales line is that?

If you take the time to actually ask quality questions and ENGAGE your prospect, you will never have to ask this question again...they will tell you...they WANT to tell you...if only you will let them!

People are WAAAAAY to smart these days and knowledgeable about your "sales tactics." Drop the spiel and start helping.

As a Successful Sales Professional that does a large percentage of business based on Strong Referrals, I can tell you it is easier, less costly, and much more friendly to do business that way.

I hear the following comments every week:

  • "I was afraid to walk in the door at first, but you set us totally at ease"
  • "This was a totally different experience than we though it was going to be"
  • "I can't tell you how much you have helped us with such an important decision"
  • "You are SO MUCH different than everyone else we have spoken with."
  • "Why didn't the guy at the other company tell us about this?"

If these type of comments are not a regular occurrence for you, perhaps a change in approach is long overdue?
