The benefits to knowing where your customer is in the buying process are obvious. Let’s say you’ve been asked to provide a solution and, through the use of some clever questions, you discover that the customer has
I Hate Cold CallsLong before I started my business, I realized that I wasn't good at telephone sales and that I would need to generate leads in another way. I developed a sure-fire way to generate those leads, interest in me, and my business, through the use of telephone
There are four stages that make up the buying process. We all go through them whether we’re purchasing a bar of chocolate or a space rocket. (My own experience has been gained with chocolate bars rather than rockets but that’s neither here nor there.) The only differences are the degree of risk and the time-scales involved. The stages are:
1. Need
2. Requirements
3. Solution
4. DealAs an expert sales rep, you know that you help your customer agree to a deal by asking questions. The answers to your first questions will tell you which part of the buying process your customer currently occupies. Once you determine where the customer is, you know where you should be from a selling point of view. On the selling side there are four stages that are equal and opposite to the buying stages:
1. Explore the need
2. Define the requirements
3. Propose the solution
4. Close the dealIf your prospect is at the Need stage, for example, there’s not much point in trying to Propose a solution. For one thing, you won’t have sufficient understanding of the requirements. How can you? The client doesn’t even know the requirements at this stage!

A raise in your base salary is a permanent source of increased income. However, to increase your take home pay, you can also negotiate performance bonuses on specific projects, activities, or time frames. In the sales world bonuses are often called commissions. That is, a person is

One very powerful and cost-effective marketing strategy is to study the competition. This is an important exercise, as essentially it allows you to find out as much as possible about the opposition – how best they operate, what they lack and then how to capitalise on it!Study th
The benefits to knowing where your customer is in the buying process are obvious. Let’s say you’ve been asked to provide a solution and, through the use of some clever questions, you discover that the customer has analyzed fully neither their need nor their requirements. You can grasp the opportunity to create a relationship built on trust by helping them to understand their own needs. The alternative is to offer them a Rolls Royce when told they want a car. Good choice, perhaps, but if their budget is for a used VW, just exactly whose time are you wasting?
