Change in Attitude I Sales techniques and pressure took precedence over solving a prospect’s problem. Silent close: Ask a question and listen. First one to speak “loses.” Right idea, wrong attitude Pushy vs. Professionally Persistent Take your relationship with each client to the next level.

Change in Attitude II Align your sales behavior with those things that buyers value most in salespeople. You buy time when you gain trust. Your clients and prospects can teach you a lot about selling by the way they react to you. LEARN!

Dealing with Tough Customers I Car dealer who cancelled his order

Dealing with Tough Customers II Tough customers don’t want to deal with pushover salespeople. You’ve got to be different. Pre-call planning is vital. The customer is always right, unless the customer is wrong. Be willing to walk away from a bad deal or a bad character. Have friends inside the organization.

Magic Phrase “This is the way I work…” Tell your prospects how you are going to sell them before you try to sell them your product or service. Transparency: If they buy the way you sell, they’ll buy more of the things you sell. Sell them on how you sell, and the pressure is off; less pressure; less defensive.
