Atricle Dump - How To Master The Art And Science Of Super Salesmanship In 3 1/2 Minutes Flat!
American consumers have spoken and have done so loudly registering 50 million telephone numbers with the FTC’s National Do-Not-Call list since the registry debuted in July.This new telemarketing sales rule, which was scheduled to take effect October 1st, recently encountered two legal battles which could diminish the rule’s intent - to allow consumers to fight back against annoying telemarketing calls.The first legal battle against the national list occurred in Oklahoma where a federal judge ruled that the Federal Trade Commission did not have the proper authority to oversee the do-not-call list. On Monday, September 29th, President Bush signed legislation to give the FTC the proper authority to administer th
This is exactly what you've gotta do when you’re writing a sales letter.
While writing a piece about racist attack on call center workers, I felt that I was not doing enough to get into the depth of the matter. Just analyzing the published data and reading report written by someone else did not feel enough. I decided to talk to someone who actually works in a call center. Following is the transcript of our talk. My respondent works at a call center in Pune, India. The answers have not been edited.1) Here in USA we hear about call center workers being abused by callers from USA. They call them bad name and are nasty. Have you faced this kind of situation..? If yes then how did you handle it and how did it made you feel about Americans in general? Also did the bad behavior from American cal

Superior Salesmanship.
I am not a born salesman.
If you know my story, I didn’t even have a word of the English language on my lips when I first moved to North America. (Even now, my spoken English is not all that great and it comes with an accent that would put Arnold Schwarzenegger or Jackie Chan to shame.)
No, I wasn't born to sell. I had to learn selling... the HARD way: making embarrassing mistakes, blowing deals right and left, losing clients... and going to outrageous extremes trying to identify the world-class salesmen who would teach me the way to do things right.
Well, it's taken a few years... quite a few years, I'll admit, but now I've identified the "tricks of the trade" of selling.
What Took Me Years Will Be Yours In 3 ? Minutes Flat!
Tricks of the Trade #1 - People don’t like to be sold
That's right! Although every year, trillions of dollars worth of goods and services are bought and sold -- billions through the mail alone -- people actually don’t like the IDEA of being sold.
What they DO like is the idea of OWNING the product, or taking advantage of the service that is being sold.
Look at the people in your own life -- friends, family, or business colleagues. Many of them, no doubt, love to buy things. (My girlfriend has a “black belt” in shopping) But I'll bet that none of them like to be sold.
In fact, with most people, if you try to sell them something, they'll become resistant. It's a natural response to perceived pressure.
In fact, selling may turn-off a prospect who was ready to buy. So if you can't SELL, what you can do is TELL. In order to tell you about my product or service:
- I get your attention...
- I build rapport with you...
- I explain what’s in it for you...
- I tempt you by appealing to your emotions...
- I create a verbal picture that teases your desires...
- I demonstrate how my stuff can easily solve your problems...
- I can prove to you that there’re a lot people just like you who have bought and are very happy with my stuff...
- I make you an absolutely irresistible offer...
- I describe a deal where you risk nothing, and yet stand to gain a great deal...
- I handle every single one of your objections...
This is exactly what you've gotta do when you’re writing a sales letter.
Just recently I had the privilege of interviewing Larry James from Scottsdale Arizona for The National Networker magazine. Larry has been networking with others for years and he takes networking very seriously. According to Larry, most people think that collecting cards is what it is all about. The interesting fact is that most people think networking events are places to prospect for customers. Larry and I both agree that collecting cards and prospecting are the last things you want to do when networking.Networking is where you use your talents to help others achieve their goals. Now you may wonder what is in it for you - you attended the event to get business, right? Perhaps I could state this in another way. If yo

If you're seriously interested in knowing about criminal background checks, you need to think beyond the basics. This informative article takes a closer look at things you need to know about criminal background checks.A criminal background check can give rise to many types of information about criminal/legal issues including arrests and convictions. If an allegation of child abuse is to be found it will be in the report as well. Criminal records information is not available to the general public in every state. Some states have criminal information online that is accessible whereas other states are more particular and require that a person interested in doing a criminal background check on another individual must fi

Most people find financial statements identical to a foreign language. To ensure that financial statements are easier to understand, there is a set of rules and practices known as the generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Development of these rules provides a basic guideline accounting because I think it’s fair to say that it can get obtuse at times. There are a lot of variations to the meaning so here is the best answer. It’s the generally accepted accounting rules and procedures that are necessary to define accounting practice. Basically it’s a set of theories that accountants come to accept, and controversies are lively with some methods between accountants.Accounting is a discipline that is always gr
This is exactly what you've gotta do when you’re writing a sales letter. Don’t apply pressure and don’t bully your prospect with force. Use a little finesse instead. Don't force it -- romance the hell out of it.
If you TELL you, I don't have to SELL you... you'll sell yourself!
(And that’s killer salesmanship, my friend!)
Tricks of the Trade #2 - Hit ‘Em Where It Hurts:
With each sales pitch you create, you must focus on the need or desire that your product will satisfy.
If we only buy what we NEED, there’ll be No Rolex, No BMW, No Mercedes, No Botox, and definitely NO Starbucks coffee. We certainly don’t NEED any of that stuff, but we WANT them!
Here’s what most people are looking for in one way or another:
- More money
- More free time
- More respect
- Better physical health
- Better mental health
- Less stress
Remember, people buy what they WANT, not what they NEED.
Tricks of the Trade #3 - Even When They're Sold, People Need To Satisfy Their Emotional Decisions With Logic
Even though people buy for emotional reasons, they need to feel that their decision was backed by solid logical reasons.
Think about TV commercials for cars. They offer a perfect picture of "justification."
Here's how they work:
First, there's a stirring image of the car itself – beautiful, stylish, new. (In your head: Wow! That car looks cool...)
In the background, there’s a mountainous landscape (In your head: Wow! That's rugged... like me!) or a five-star hotel (In your head: Wow! That car would give me status."
And, of course, no car commercial would be complete without a beautiful, sexy woman. (In your head: ...let's not go there!)
Next, you see an interior shot to show how luxurious your life will be with this car. You get to listen to state-of-the-art sound system. (In your head: Hmm... I can listen to my favorite music.)
Then, there’s a shot of the car driving by the ocean.
