KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The general consensus seems to be that selling involves the dark art of simply talking someone else into buying something. This tends to be because most people spend their lives in a fear state, and see anyone intrusive as a threat in some way.
- Sales people seem to stop listening after they hear the first need of the client. It is imperative that we listen on to understand the subtext beneath, and to identify the real need.
- The definition of influence is not you trying to convince someone that they should do something. It's about convincing someone about what you believe in, and taking them along for the ride
- The art of selling has nothing to do with spreadsheets. True selling is a conversation. It's the process by which we create a narrative that people want to be a part of.
- Our task as a sales manager is not to create the right selling environment for our sales people. It's about turning those people into sellers who can travers any environment.
