Go With The Flow Selling #534

Too often we're overly concerned about the competition or comparing ourselves to others. This fear whips us into a frenzy and we fail to economize our energies, to the detriment of our pipeline. You've been told time and time again to get organized, follow the process, and leverage the power of your CRM. But this advice falls on deaf ears. What if there was a better way? A way of selling that has a natural flow that avoids obstacles and reaches its destination the fastest way possible. Maybe a river would be a good metaphor. What can we learn from the nature of water and how it applies to selling? You know the Tao loves to envision our lives in the context of flowing water. Right? Go with the flow selling. That's our topic for today.

How To Grow Confidence When Selling #532

Often these days I see a lack of mindfulness and confidence in the profession of sales. Despite possessing strengths, and skills, sellers often fail to acknowledge their weaknesses and gaps. Not all sellers. Take you, for instance! Here you are, actively listening to Sales Babble and committed to enhancing your sales skills. Contrast that with your peers, who dismiss the idea of continuous improvement. You stand out because you believe in your ability to become better. That kind of confidence is invaluable. Lao Tzu frequently speaks about acceptance and its empowering effects, making our discussion on confidence timely.”

Why Be the Seller Who Cares #530

Several years ago, I saw Zig Ziglar at the United Center. Zig was a famous author, salesperson, and motivational speaker. Zig was one of many famous headline speakers that morning and he provided a very engaging speech with over 10K people attending. I remember him sharing one of his favorite lines, "People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care... about them!" Too often sellers forget this! Customers have choices. There is more competition than ever before. So how do you differentiate? Compassion! It's knowing what buyers truly desire, which is to have someone take away their problems. When prospects get the sense that you care about their problems and that you have their best interest in mind, they will trust that you have the solution. That's how to stand out. Caring for them, taking care of them, just being a good person, and showing some compassion. That’s our topic for today.
