Why You Hate to Sell
Don't you just Hate to sell? Oh sure, you don't mind talking about your product/service.
Because you know your product/service inside out. You can recite the features at a drop of a hat. In fact, you've read & memorized so much technical data that the support staff asks you questions.
You've even remembered to state a feature and then add it's benefit too. As in, and here's what that means to you, Mrs Customer...
You know so much about your offer that you can talk about it until your suspect/prospect ears bleed. Talk. Talk. Talk.
Is this you?
You've got the product/service info down cold. You even talk feature then benefit. You may even handle the most common objections during your *presentation*.
But you still Hate to sell?
You can't look'em in the eye and ask'em if they're ready to get started enjoying benefit, benefit now?
Then shut up and wait until you get their answer?
If that describes you, great!
*You are only two steps away from being a Sales SuperStar*
The reason you're afraid to look'em in the eye and ask'em if they'll ready to get started enjoying the benefits they expressed most interest in -- and then keep it zipped until they answer -- is because you're afraid they won't buy!
The reason you have a hard time asking questions and waiting for a complete answer is -- you're afraid that you didn't do a super, super job with your presentation -- Again you're afraid they won't buy!
And the reason you hate to sell -- you think it's all about YOU. You're afraid they won't buy -- YOU!
*Your Two Steps to Becoming a Sales SuperStar*
1) Take YOU out of the selling process.
Ask
questions and let THEM tell you why they need your product/service. In other words. Qualify, qualify. Then re-qualify. If your suspect does not qualify, great, they're not a prospect.
Wonderful. Move on to the next suspect. Teach yourself to ask questions that will make your suspect qualify themselves quickly. Sort - Don't Sell. Sort - Don't sell.
IF you'll let them, they'll sell themselves. Of course it's easier for you to talk, talk, talk.
If everyone says you're a good salesperson because you're such a good talker...Baby you're in Big Trouble.
2) Fall in Love. Yeah, I'm serious as a letter bomb. Fall in love with -- YOURSELF!
You will never receive all that *you deserve* until you fall in love with - YOU. But be prepared. You have years of brainwashing to trash out. But you can do it. If I can, anyone on God's sweet planet can too.
If you're a subscriber to my Free Newsletter *The Home Grown Biz Advocate* You get a free book that will teach you a simple method -- to fall in Love with Yourself.
Note that I didn't say easy. I said simple. And I'm available for a little coaching. If that's what it takes.
