That being said, shoot for 5 face-to-face meetings for the upcoming ...

Daily Sales Tip

  • Ask for Referrals

    A great way to ask for referrals is through a “Thank You” note once a month to your clients.  Try something like: “Jim, I wanted to take a moment and thank you for your continued support.  Your business is very important to me so “Thank You” for being a loyal client.  As you know, my business depends on referrals. I would very much appreciate it if you could take the time to write the names and numbers of 3 to 5 people you feel might benefit from my service.  Of course, if you do not wish for me to use your name I won’t.  Again, thank you for your business and here’s to our continued success.”  Send that out to your clients each month via email, letter, or hand written note and see what happens.

  • Sales Calls Are Not Sales Presentations, But Sales Conversations

    Think of your next sales call not as a sales presentation, but a sales conversation.  Instead of using “tricks and techniques” to persuade your potential client, use a formula for building rapport:  a) brief, informative introduction; b) ask pertinent questions; c) listen; d) summarize and repeat; 5) open the relationship instead of close the sale.

  • Stop Selling and Start Sharing

    Stop selling and start sharing.  Have real empathy and use your listening skills to connect with the person sitting across the table from you.

  • Add Questions to Your Sales Conversations

    Add these two questions to your sales conversation: How can I help you?  How can we work together?

  • Don’t Leave a Meeting without Scheduling the Next Appointment

    Time is the killer of all deals. It is important to establish the next step in the sales process so as to not lose momentum.  There is always a next stage as well as a solution to design and deliver.  This is the best time to schedule your follow-up meeting because you are face-to-face with the prospect.  Do this and shorten your sales cycle.

    • When we hired STARR we wanted results, i.e. more clients, period.  After 10 days of using STARR’s marketing calendar and reengineering our sales message, we brought in 11 additional clients.  That’s ROI.  Thanks John for doing what you said and helping us follow through.
