Listen More, Sell Less
Brilliant salespeople excel by listening more than they talk, countering the stereotype that being talkative equates to being effective in sales. The best salespeople create a seamless experience where customers feel they are making their own decisions rather than being 'sold' to. This approach transforms interactions, such as upselling dessert in a restaurant, into positive experiences. Research indicates that top performers in sales listen twice as much as they speak, emphasizing the importance of guiding the conversation by asking questions and allowing the customer to respond. This strategy helps avoid putting oneself in a defensive position and fosters a stronger connection, leading to more successful outcomes.
