The final two steps (out of 8) in the Consultative Selling Process that we have been discussing on this sales podcast.

In simple words, asking for the sale.  The motivational quote shared is by Anthony Jay Robbins (A.K.A Tony Robbins) An American Author and a Life Coach.

Following a sales process can be easy especially if you follow it step by step and have total of 8 steps. Today's sales podcast is about step 5 in consultative selling process which is to Identify Needs and step 6 (the most exiting step of all) Present Solutions. The motivational quote shared is by none other than Zig Ziglar!

Step 3 in Consultative Selling Sales Process is the easiest & shortest one of all. You simply confirm three things with the customers in this stage which are described in detail in the podcast. The next step #4 is the key step and mother of this consultative selling process. If you miss this step, you will not be able to have much success in selling your products or services to the customers. The quote shared is by Dalai Lama:   “When you talk, you are only repeating what you already know.

If you miss setting the context of the sales meeting, it is just like you missed the flight to your destination. The sales motivational quote shared is by Anthony Iannarino   He is an international speaker, bestselling author, sales leader and an entrepreneur.   Check out his sales blog “The Sales Blog” for daily sales tips and insights! “Care enough to create value for customer. If you get that part right, selling is easy”  What does it mean to set meeting context?   This is a key step when you have arrived at the meeting, have built rapport as discussed in last episode, and now you need to set the context of the meeting.  Which simply means that you will highlight the focus points of todays meeting. WHY ARE WE HERE AND WHAT WILL WE DISCUSS.  Setting the context at the beginning of any meeting is the first step you can take to ensure that the meeting is effective Participants need to understand what is the focus for the meeting. Some good examples: “Mr Customer, thank you for seeing me today and in today’s meeting we will cover a the important of social media, and how your brand can benefit from a strong social media presence.”   That is it.   Ideally, keep it one item so that you can focus on it, so can client focus on it and you can hit home the point.   Think about it this way, before you meeting starts ask your self, what is one thing I would like my prospect to learn from todays meeting and remember after the meeting is over.  That is the point you would design your presentation around and keep you clients focus on it.   Now you can certainly go in to few directions and go in to deeper background, however if you miss this step, there will be no clarity why you are meeting with your prospect today.  Pre Set The Context In An Email: What I do is I email my clients in advance, I set the meeting and I set the context in that email invite.   So for example, “Hi Gary, How are you?  I just wanted to schedule our performance review meeting with you for sometime this week.   In this 45 minute meeting, we will cover performance of your store, find key areas where we can grow and I will also share with you two lead generation products that will fit your business model.   Here is my availability for next week: Give them date/time options  Closing it with: Please let me know the date and time that works best with your schedule and I will send you a calendar invite. This works most of the time. How about the clients who do not respond back to the emails?   For those clients my email is little different:   Hi Gary,   I just wanted to give you a heads up that I will be working in your area next Tuesday, and will drop by with your performance reports, plus I have two new lead generation tools that I am excited to discuss with you.   See you between 10 – 10:30 AM on Tuesday, April 16th  Thank you,  Now with this I am not asking them to respond back to me, and not giving them a set time so that they can disappear on me. One thing I am certain, that these clients may not respond back to the email, however they do read their emails.   Instagram: @FastestWayToLearnSales

 #74 – 9th Key in selling – Inducement  - Quote by Marcus Tullius Cicero

 An Amercian former world #1 professional tennis star.   She won total of 39 Grand Slams in her tennis career. 12 in singles, 16 in women’s doubles and 11 in mixed doubles.   She is married to none other than Mr Larry King!   Billie Jean King Once Said:   “Champions keep playing until they get it right.”  

Today's sales podcast topic is the 7th key in selling which is Impending Event & Handling “Ill Buy It Later” Objection.  Quote by: Eleanor Roosevelt Former First Lady of the USA. A well known political figure and she once said:   “Learn from the mistakes of others. You can’t live long enough to make them yourself”   Topic: Key number 7 in selling which is The Impending Event.   Which simply means that things will change, the prices, processes, service, performance, desirability and availability of what you are selling today will for sure change in the future.   It is a fair thing to say that the prices you are selling your products today, will not be the same in the future.   In order to be absolute success in sales you sales fellow must come up with a way to handle to “I’ll buy it later” objection.   So let’s use an example of the 7th key of selling – The Impending Event   Prospect: “The price on this house is too high”   You: “Yes, I’d be inclined to agree with you. The price on this home – like most everything else – is too high. But you, Mr Prospect, are the one who set the price”   Prospect: What do you mean that I am the one who set the price?   You: “Actually, it was you and all the other people who are in the market for homes who really set the price of the homes. For example, if 90% of the people who are in the market for a home were to suddenly stop looking.   I can assure you that in a matter of six months the price of this house will drop considerably.  However, everything indicated more – and now fewer – buyers will soon be in the market for a home and law of supply and demand sets the price.   “As you well know, real estate has consistently increased in price. I firmly believe that in next 2 – 10 years you will be able to sell the same house for a lot more money.   If you go ahead, and invest in this home today, in the future you will benefit from the impending increase in price. “   The idea is to stay focused on handling the objection that is that I will buy it later.   Show them the cost of inaction.   So if a gets away from the direction and say man the Hockey game was interesting last night” and try to get the talks off topic, you get back in control by saying:   Yes, the hockey game was real fun and exciting last night and so are the benefits which go with our product or service.   BRINGING THE CONVERSATION FOCUS BACK TO WHAT YOU ARE SELLING.

The quote shared is by Zig Ziglar – A Salesperson, Author, Motivational Speaker!   “You were born to win, but to be a winner you must plan to win, prepare to win and expect to win”.   First give me an honest answer to this question: Do You Consider Yourself To Be A Born Sales Professional?   Do you ever think this way that, nah I am not a born sales professional?   Humor: As Zig Ziglar mentions in his books Secrets of Closing a Sale that he has seen women gave given birth to boys and that he has seen women give birth to girls, but thus far I’ve never seen that a woman has given birth to a salesman.  Now I want all my listeners to stop thinking that they are not a born sales professional.   You can definitely be trained to sell, sell tons and this podcast is playing a part in that sales training.  Key Point: Customer or Revenue What is Your Priority? I also want to highlight a key point in here, our key objective in business is to generate revenue by making sales.   This does not mean that that revenue is above our customers.   We need to build relationships, give respect, gain and retain the trust in order for longevity in sales career.  Now coming today’s topic which is POSITIVE PROJECTION.   What is Positive Projection?   Play the episode to understand what is positive projection, and also hear a story of nasty, mean, foulmouthed old buzzard and a young sales fellow.

Build a positive healthy self-image by helping others without expecting anything in return and choose the people you hang out with carefully. Step 7: This one is an interesting one. Step 7 is to do something for someone else, without expecting any favor in return. Sales fellows we are building a healthy self-image so that we can become a better salesperson, a better husband and a better human being overall. Here are some quick examples of how we can do something for someone else. We can sign up as a volunteer at Salvation Army or Red Cross. We can donate blood. We can visit a sick person at their residence of the hospital. We can opt to babysit for a single parent, giving them a break to go out and do things they like to do. Become a big brother to an orphan. Visit the senior’s home and read them a book. If you know a graduate entering the job market, we can enhance their interview skills, or work on their resume making it more presentable. Just remember you do not want any compensation or the person or persons you are assisting should be in a position to return any favor back to you. Believe me, when you will give something without expecting anything in return, yes the recipient will feel amazing, that is true, however the feeling you will get is completely indescribable. Gratitude. You will realize that you how fortunate your are and you will not complain. You will be grateful for little things and you will feel that you have a lot to be thankful for in your life. Being selfless will make you feel good about yourself. You will feel that you are somebody, somebody who can make a contribution in other peoples lives. Now let’s move on to the step 8 out of 15 in building a healthy self-image. Step 8: Choose your associates carefully John Lee Dumas uses this quote over and over that “You are the average of five people you hang out with.” Hang out with a high moral character who look on the bright side of life in all aspects, how much will you benefit from it? A good example supposes you are a person who is always late and you start hanging out with people who are punctual and start everything on time. Guess what? Two three times that you notice, hey they do not wait for me, you will also become punctual and develop a positive habit. Hang out with someone who exercises regularly, chances are you will push yourself too and start exercising. In Asian culture, our parents always scan our friends closely. They say you are known by the company you keep. It is absolutely true. You acquire much of the thinking, manners, and characteristics of the people you are around. Trust me if all the other professionals in the world took sales training and had to sell for living for three months, our country will become even greater. Why? Just think about it. In the sales profession, what do you hear the most from trainers, coaches, managers, and associates? Yes, “You can do it”. They make you believe that YOU CAN DO IT. Be careful and pick out those people who are optimistic and enthusiastic about life and I guarantee you will see those traits in yourself over a period of time. In his book “Think and Grow Rich” Napoleon Hill has a full chapter on this subject. He calls it “The Mind Group” Napoleon Hill brings three key benefits of handing out with the crowd. 1. Infinite Intelligence 2. Accumulated Experience 3. Experiment and Research Quote By John C. Maxwell an American author who has written a number of books on leadership. Excellent content to consume. There are two kinds of learning: Experience, which is gained from your own mistakes, and Wisdom which is learned from the mistakes of others. Sales fellows when you feel good about yourself, everyone around you feels good. Which means you have a happy workplace, happy customers, happy managers, happy life at home!

Today we discuss two vital steps in building a healthy, positive self-image as a salesperson and a good citizen. By Frank A. Clark an American politician and a lawyer. Frank said: “Most smiles are started by another smile” Step - #5 | Take Baby Steps Yes, build a healthy self-image with a series of short steps. The number one reason why most new plans remain a plan and never move into executive is that of the fear of failure. The idea is to start with the end in mind and break it down into small pieces. The episode includes the story of a 60+-year-old retired gym mate and how he breaks down his fitness goals into small steps and achieve broader goals. My former Sales Manager always used to tell me “Saqib, the sales target this quarter may be a big one, however, how do you eat an elephant? – One Bit At A Time” Step 6: Moving into Step 6 which is to Smile & Compliment Use your smile to change the world, don’t let the world change your smile! The smile is contagious, and when you smile at someone, not that your face value goes up, you get a smile in return. How good is that? Trust me; nobody wants to deal with a grumpy salesperson or a neighbor or a coworker. Plus, a smile costs nothing and builds your positive self-image immensely. The second piece to step 6 is to pass on genuine compliments. I find that in today’s day and age our egos are too high. We rarely compliment others on things they are doing better. A quick story to put this in perspective about the Fitness Group on IG that I follow and the discovery of lack of compliments by the male audience in the group. Someone has a nice car; I will be the first to tell him. Someone has a cute sweater; I will make her day! Someone is looking great in his outfit; I will be sure to let him know. I find that it is impossible for one to make someone feel better and not feel better in return. Plus it is super simple to say hey man you are looking good! Keep up the hard work! Keep looking good! Spread optimism and good cheer, because what goes around comes around. Do not criticize instead complement. Rather than finding what’s wrong with someone, let’s see what is right, what are they doing good! Instead of saying “What I don’t like about that person” say “What I like about that person.” Look for good and good will follow you around. It will improve your self-image and make you more likable personality. Last note, answer the phone with enthusiasm rather than saying “Hello” or “Hi, what can I do for you today?” Answer the phone and cheer the person up, among billions of people in the world that person is calling you, in this moment you are special to him and in return make him/her feel special. Even when your customers call, answer by saying “Hey, I am having a great day and it just got even better” (because you heard your client’s voice) Or just, “Good morning, it is a great day and hopes you are having a great one too.” These two steps cost you nothing at all, however, will make you a more desirable person. Your personality will improve, your self-image will grow, and your performance at work will improve. The basics of sales psychology. Thanks for tuning in and listening to today’s sales show.

How to build a positive, healthy self-image to be successful in sales? A Sales career is not for people with a negative self-image. You will just not make it. Step 3 & 4 Are Very Close To Each Other and I classify them a “Life Long Learning” Quote: By Allan Bloom – American Philosopher He is best known for his book “The Closing Of The American Mind” “Education is the movement from darkness to light” Step 3 is to read biographies and autobiographies of men and women who used what they had and got a great deal out of life by making contributions to life. When we see a successful person and, often overlook their failures they faced before they became successful. A name that pops right up is of Colonel Sanders who started KFC at the age of 60. His life did not end at the age of 35 or 40. He lived it till he breathes last. Inspiring. Ray Kroc is another one to read and learn from. He was a visionary and persistent entrepreneur and a good example for all of us sales professionals. If you do not know Ray Kroc, he was the one who made McDonalds a franchise and a fast food chain all across the globe. The story of Ray Kroc is an interesting one. He was a Milk Shake sales person and he receives an order from a restaurant in California for 8 milkshake maker. A general order size was one or two. Ray took this opportunity visited the location and formed McDonald's that we know today. If you are a Netflix person, you can watch his persistent and inspiring story, it is the title “The Founder”. Ray Kroc did not open the first McDonald – The First restaurant was opened by Nick Offerman and John Carrol. Speaking of Netflix – You can also watch Walt Disney’s documentary titled “Walt before Mickey” to get some real inspiration! Other great biographies to read, but not limited to Martin Luther King, Henry Ford, Andrew Carnegie, Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Edison, and the list is endless. These biographies will inspire you. Step 4: Step four is very similar to step three and it is also about feeding your brain. The rule is when you are sitting down you read, and when you are moving, you play podcasts and audiobooks. Step 4 is to listen to podcasts (like you are) and play audiobooks. As a salesperson on your drive to and from work, you can make your car a university on wheels. Even driving to appointments and back you can listen to motivational speakers, podcaster and entrepreneurs to stay motivated and feed your brain the knowledge diet. Sales fellows just like Robin Sharma says, “You are the C.E.O of your own body” so please take command and learn. I understand you are on you are on track as you listen to Fastest Way To Learn Sales and get valuable sales insights however there is a lot more to learn. Psychology, Emotional Intelligence, Self-Actualization, Spiritual and many more subjects that you can educate yourself while you are on the go. Why is this better than radio or playing music? I am not against music. However, it does not feed your brain the knowledge diet. Radio, on the other hand, is generally negative. How may you ask? We seldom hear good news on the mainstream media. As a funny example, the weatherman will tell you that there is a 20% chance of rain or snow. What about the 80% of the day that there is no rain or snow? You get the point. Now I want to share with one of my habits with you. When I am out on the field selling and visiting my clients, I always carry a book with me. Let's suppose I make it to my 9 AM appointment and my client is running 15 mins late, I just earned 15 mins of reading. Yes, the same time I can use in other ways. I can be on my cell phone swiping the stories on Snapchat or browsing influencers posts on Instagram or Facebook, however, this practice will not develop me, this will not help me sell more, this will not feel my brain the much-needed knowledge diet. Reading a book will! Fastest Way To Learn Sales is Saskatoon, Saskatchewan based Sales Podcast.

Quote by Giorgio Armani: “Good clothes makes you feel confident and improve the outcome of any activity” Italian fashion designer known for clean and tailored lines. Started in 1975. Step 2: Dress Up & Do The Make Up! Guys and Girls when you walk out of a hair Salon, how do you feel? Do you feel fresh? Do you feel confident? Do you have a smile on? All the positive energy and vibes around you and the only change you made was a hair cut!! As per a research done it gives a monemental lift to our self confidence & self image. Both men and women feel a whole lot more confident when they know their appearance is good!! A brand new dress, make up or hair cut makes women feel at ease, increase their confidence and in general just make them feel good. Same if true for men however they just do not like to admit it. Just notice next time your wife, daughter, sister or grand daughter returns back from the beauty salon, you will see a little attidute change in them. They will smile more, they will enjoy small incidents more and laugh at them more. To put it simply you will see them enjoy life! Yes, our appearance does have a direct bearing on the way we feel about ourselves. The best part is that when you dress up and do the make up not only your professional sales life reap the rewards you see a positive change in your persoanl and family life as well!! Next key point I would like to make is that dress you kids up as well! This will boost their confidence. Teachers will tell you that when kids wear their new clothes, they do their best and bring their best out to work. In Zig Ziglar’s book See You At The Top he says that Princiapls in USA verified that conduct is considerably low on the Picture Taking Days! Your outward appearance does affect your image and you performance. The outside appearance is enhancing or crippling the potetial of the person on the inside. Same goes with employers, they notice that when their employees are dressed well and look sharp the productive is high! I have also heard from people on the sales floor that So & So became a Sales Manager not because he has great seling skills, not at all. He got that role because he dress well. I say to them, well that is not that hard to beat! Especialy if you live in a country like Canada! Lastly, Brian Tracy in his book Pshychology of Selling talks about Dress For Success. Brian makes a solid point and he says that 95% of your body is covered in clothing! The 95% of the first impression you make on a prospect will be determined by your clothing. Prospect are intensly visual. The way you look and appear on the outside is considered to be an expression of the kind of person you are on the inside. I was at a dealership finishing my appointment with the General Manager of the Group. There was another sales person waiting for him and as we walk down the stairs he said good by to me and asked his assistant who is here to see me next? The assistant point out at the lady standing by reception and the General Manager said “Sorry, I did not realize that you work with this company, I could not tell just because how you are dressed.” The lady had to bring out her work id badge to confirm she represented the big company that she did. Point here my sales fellows is simple, when you are well dressed and groomed the custom unconsiously assumes that you come from a good company and that your product or service is of good quality. When you go to your sales conferences, kick off or any big sales event you will notice that the best sales people who are crushing the sales are the ones who have sense of style, are groomed and dressed well. On the other hand, there are countless salespeople who loose the battle right in the morning by leaving their homes dressed poorly. The tragedy is that no one has even takem them aside and explained it to them that the clothing is not a cost it is an investment in your self. Dress is one of the most power

The poor self-image is not for sales professionals. Poor self-image costs you sales, costs you money and costs take the longevity away from your sales life. In today’s sales podcast I share with you what is a poor self-image. Another known word for poor self-image is Inferiority Complex. I am not good enough. I can’t be the number one salesperson in the organization because I am not my manager’s favorite. I cannot be the best player in my team as my coach does not like me. These are just some examples of the poor self-image. In Sales and to be successful in sales, you must have a healthy, positive self-image! You must look at your self as THE PERSON! So don’t be a thief and steal from yourself, your family, your society, your organization the potential and the value you can offer. The quote mentioned in from Spiritual Leader Lao Tzu: “Because the one believe in oneself, one doesn’t try to convince others. Because one is content with oneself, one does not need others approval. Because one accepts oneself, the whole world accepts him or her.” Remember when you see your self differently, you start to act differently. There are two best practices shared. One from Dalai Lama One Minute A Day In The Present Moment and Second To Encourage And Appreciate Others Out Loud. Play the sales podcast to learn more.

Sales as a profession or career are not for everyone. Although I firmly believe that we as humans are constantly selling something at all time. To give you an example, a teacher is selling his/her message to the students. A child is selling a birthday party invitation to his/her parents. A leader is selling his/her message to the followers. The list is long, and you get the idea. However, sales as a career are not for everyone, and in today’s sales podcast I discuss with you ten traits that will make you an outstanding sales professional. These traits discussed in detail in the podcast, and you must play it to learn more: You will be great in sales is you have these following traits, and the ten traits are: 1. You are not normal 2. You are super committed individual 3. You are motivated 4. You have a positive self-image 5. You sacrifice 6. You delegate 7. You are an optimist 8. You are enthusiastic 9. You live off-peak 10. You are consistent & persistent The best part of all, you are not boring. You are resilient, you are a great storyteller, you have great humor, and you know when to get serious and get right to business. You are a big deal! So never sell yourself short! So, if you have put a check mark to 6 – 7 traits from the top ten list above, you will do just fine in sales. However, if you master, learn and acquire the other 4 – 3 traits, you will rock in the sales world and become a sought-after commodity!
