Best Sales Management Tips & Technique

1. Work on what customer believe – don’t force your product

It’s not about having world class product or best presentation, it’s about believe of your customer on your product.If your customer doesn’t believe in the value you offer and the proposition you going to showcase , they simply turn down your next visit. So a sales professional need to understand what a customer is actually looking out of the product which they are selling ? Is the product offered really make sense to them ? Do they get value what they are looking out of the product ?

Don’t create confusion , rather probe and ask them questions , let them share their true need and what they want out of the product. Then try and create a plausible emergency ,so that they feel that this the need of the hour.

2. Don’t dig your grave without proper plan to close the sales.

Would you plan to fly a jet-plane without knowing where to land or which direction to go ? You answer would definitely be NO. Then why you rush to your prospect without proper planning as what to sell and how to close the deal. They could be “n” numbers of techniques which any sales professional follow , but it is widely important to choose the trick which is relevant to your line of business. Plan a strategy to tackle all possible apprehensions ,  get at-least 3 different solutions for every general question asked.  Let your customer speak what they want and then use your expert strategy and technique which can help to get a favorable out come from the meeting done.

“Remember if you drive without knowing you direction , you will never reach your destination”

3. Grant yourself a time slot for better prospecting

You have gone to a medicine shop to get remedy for fever and you don’t know which medicine to buy , will it be helpful to cure your fever ?.

Many sales professional run after business without segregating their actual – targeted prospect which land them no-where at the end.

Thus these leads can be nurtured to close the sales, which is our ultimate goal.

4. Have faith on your inner-self and discuss your “action to be taken” with experts.
