Top 10 Reasons Sales Managers Fail-And What To Do About ItThe primary reasons that sales managers fail is that they don’t know how to manage their people, and they don’t manage a highly effective selling processes. Just as an engineering manager needs to be a pretty competent engineer, so does a sales manager need to be a pretty competent salesperson. However, in both cases, their primary responsibility is to manage the performance of their staff. And, both must have a good ch step of the sales process. This Mutual Respect results in Total Disclosure of the
prospect's needs, wants and buying intentions- as well as
Total Disclosure of the product's/service's benefits and
limitations.Mutual Agreem Entrepreneurs: Benefits vs. Features-Know the Difference!Entrepreneurs know their business. They know their product, their service. Many of them write creative Web sites. But, one thing they are not as adept at is promotional copy.It's not the book, it's the hook! It's not the beautiful Web site, it's the one with benefit-driven headlines that lead your visitor straight to your sales message. What you say outside the book covers matters. What you say about your service Waiting until the end of the sales process before closing a
sale is akin to waiting until the last ten minutes of a flight to
Venus before making course corrections. In both cases,
there is a very low probability of success.It is of little value to wait until after presenting your product
or service to begin applying "closing techniques". You
must create a sound foundation for the sale throughout the
sales process. Without that foundation, salespeople feel
pressured and trigger prospects' natural resistance: The
probable outcome is lost opportunities and lack of sales. Top salespeople, the Top 1%, close at the beginning of the
sale, and many times throughout the sales process: - They spend most of their time with people able, willing,
and ready to buy - these are High Probability Prospects.
- They only do business with prospects they respect, and
who, in turn, respect them: These are genuine business
relationships, with both parties mutually agreeing to move
forward each step of the sales process.

Stay - Say - PayWould you like to have customers that stay with you and
don't buy from your competitors?
Customers that say nice things about your business to other
people; pay you on time and
accept the fact that you might be a bit more expensive then
other suppliers?
Of course you do but how do we perform this miracle? It's
dead easy really; you only have
to consider two factors: be Reliable and be Likeable.It almost wait until after presenting your product
or service to begin applying "closing techniques". You

Franchise Buyers and Integrity During the Sales Process of Buying a FranchiseMost franchisees, about 60% of them, do not fully tell the truth during the application, candidate screening process or sales interview. Franchise Buyers need to concentrate on complete integrity during the sales process when purchasing a new franchise or buying out the rights and transferring an existing Franchise.For over a decade I ran a franchising company and was appalled and the number of lies I caught, in f resistance: The

- Mutual Agreements and Mutual Commitments happen
early, and often, throughout the sales process.
- These mutual agreements lead to Closed Sales: the
'Closing' is the sum total of the entire series of agreements.
Closing must begin at the initial stages of the sales process.
During the sales process, almost any point of discussion
provides an opportunity for a commitment. It's as simple
as asking: - "This system will produce at least 20% more sales by
salespeople that utilize it. Is that what you want?"
- "Is it profitable to spend between approximately $3500
per salesperson to achieve that magnitude of result?"
- "The system requires that your salespeople learn a new
sales process. Is that acceptable?"
Each 'Yes' to questions like these is a commitment, and
integrates 'Closing' throughout the Sales Process. Depending
on your products and services, closing should occur between
