THE PSYCHOLOGY OF A SALESPERSON
10. Avoid….Focusing on the negativeDon’t spend your time inventing or reinforcing obstacles. If your tourdoesnotpurchase,don’tfixateonthem,STAYPOSITIVE.Lookat every green sheet as a new opportunity.
9. Avoid…Taking rejection personallyBeself-confidentandstrongenoughtodealwithrejectionprofes-sionally, not personally. It’s the end of the day, end of the week, end of the month, end of the year.
8. Avoid…Pre-judgingRemember, sales is a transference of feelings. Pre-judging will make you defensive and aggressive. You will see your tour as an adversary. It is not a contest. Your mindset should be, “I am here to help these people”.
7. Avoid…Overselling“If it’s too good to be true, it must not be true”. When you paint a picture that is unrealistic, you instantly lose credibility. It is okay to tell your family “NO” every once in a while.
6. Avoid…Not listening to your tourEvery family has a unique problem or concern. By doing all of the talking, you will never be able to identify it. You were born with twoearsandonemouth;youshouldlistentwiceasmuchasyoutalk! You must sell people in a way they feel comfortable. Without listening, you will never know the way.
TENMOST COMMON
PITFALLS TOAVOID
82 SEQUENCE TO SUCCESS
5. Avoid…Complicating a simple conceptKeep it simple. Having an indepth knowledge of your product is a great thing. You don’t need to teach your tour everything you know. If they have a question, it’s great to know the answer, but chances are…if they aren’t asking about it, it’s not important to them! If they are not asking any questions, they are not interested.
4. Avoid…Being sold by your tourIf you believe there is any reason for them not to buy from you, YOU HAVE BEEN SOLD! People buy needs, not wants. You change their needs by changing their perspective.
3. Avoid…Being fooled by a “LAY DOWN”Thebesttourtothrowyouofftrackistheonethat“ISHERETOBUY!”. It is very tempting to rush the presentation because you are afraidthatthis‘hot’tourwillcooloff.Skippingkeypartsofyourpresentation can be fatal to your sale.
2. Avoid…Selling Too SoonThere is a natural process to a sale. You want to assume the sale from the very beginning, but NEVER start selling before it is time. Any average salesperson will try to satisfy the customer’s curiosity. A GREAT salesperson will try to make them more curious!
