Greetings,
Thank you for listening to the episode. Your commitment to developing your selling skills, mindset and techniques is our motivation.
This podcast is dedicated to the overall success in the sales channel. From the CEO to the front line salespeople, every role must be aligned, trained and committed, every day to achieve the desired outcome. This is not done without a commitment to ongoing career development in learning market-relevant techniques, overcoming conceptual barriers, applying proactive and productive behaviors and projecting a positive attitude.
In sales, there’s a common pattern that many professionals follow with the best intentions. They ask questions. They probe. They dig into the mechanics of a prospect’s situation—what systems are they using? How much are they spending? What’s not working? Next they tie the pertinent features into benefits for the prospect. But seldom do they get into the crucial questions of motivation – the WHY.
You must be motivated to tune in, so listen up as Scott and I probe, Features, Benefits and Motivation and other appealing appetizers on Episode 679 of the Winning at Selling podcast.
Golden Nuggets:
“A product is not quality because it is hard to make and costs a lot of money… Customers pay only for what is of use to them – and gives them value.
Nothing else constitutes quality.” — Peter Drucker
