TOP SALES TIPS!

Everyday sales tips from my own personal career experiences...

* Be Passionate about your job. You’ve got to have Fun! But no job is ever going to be perfect. We all have issues in addition to battling office gossip and daily bickering. YOU DRIVE YOUR CAR AND IT’S THE DRIVE IN YOU THAT FILLS YOUR SUCCESS TANK EACH AND EVERY DAY!

* Every business has a memory. Sellers do not control the product but they do control the experience!

* Keys on being a success in Sales? Just like a marriage, don’t let your client go to rust! Keep the relationship fresh. Toss in a surprise now and then. Be seen with the client. Watch out for his/her best interest. They must believe in you!

* Sales is like dating. Don’t try to walk up the alter after the first meeting. Ask questions. Learn the client’s business. Who are their competitors? Who are their clients? Piece the puzzle together.

* CO-OP!! It’s been around for years but most businesses are not aware how they can save on their investment by involving their best customers or suppliers. CO-OP'ing business partners is your ticket to success if you can talk this talk!

* Don’t leave money on the table. Spend time in front of your prospects and customers each week.

* The relationship building and communications you do during the season pays off at renewal time.

* No one can reject you unless you rejected yourself!

* Every day, you must Recruit, Progress and Close! It is your recipe to financial success!

* We all get spiked now & then in the game of Sales Volleyball. Key is to return the serve (keeping the conversation going!)


May the above serve as your inspirational reminders for today and tomorrow!!
