A Revolutionary NEW Dimension in Sales
A Revolutionary 'NEW' Dimension In Sales: Make many more closings in the same amount of time!
Phase I Phase I: Learning the Product is the first thing Paul does as he begins his career in sales. This 'newbie' envisions three major factors that will determine his success or failure in sales. They are: The problem shows up when Paul (now on his own) tries to share this knowledge with his prospects. He finds that some prospects get really 'turned on' by the product and its benefits; but there are other prospects that never seem to get interested or 'understand.' Talking to them is like "talking to brick walls." He doesn't understand why every prospect doesn't insist on purchasing. He is warm and charming every time! It must be the way he closes. There has to be a secret he needs to discover. Phase II Upon realizing this, Paul enters Phase II of his career: The Search For Enlightenment. The great question of a salesman's life haunts him on his prospecting calls. In the face of obvious need, why doesn't my prospect buy? "He needs this product. I qualified him carefully. Why can't I close him?" So, Paul begins reading, listening to tapes, attending seminars, etc. for every gimmick that comes along promising the "Secret of Closing." Phase III After a season of this, he enters Phase III of his career: The Stasis Of Superstition. Paul (like most sales people) is making 2 or 3 sales for ten presentations. But since he really doesn't understand why he sells sometimes and sometimes doesn't, he "freezes" or "cans" his presentation. He is afraid to change it because he might mess up his success so, he plays the 'numbers game.' Paul falls into a pattern of expecting to close 'just so many' sales. No amount of reading, listening to tapes, or taking sales seminars changes his pattern for long. He is hoping to keep enough prospects on the line that the ones he doesn't sell won't really matter. He'll still be a 'successful' salesman. Phase IV Before ICTech® (Individualized Communication Technology) most of us (salespeople) ended our career growth in Phase III. Now with the Natural Styles strategy used in ICTech® we can move into Phase IV: Natural Persuasion. Knowing how the 5 styles are born to process information, allows the salesperson to tailor his presentation for the format most easily understood and agreed upon by the prospect. It doesn't matter how well you know your product or how smooth your presentation is. Until your prospect UNDERSTANDS your product and its applications for him you won't close a sale. Understanding the strategy lets you dispense with gimmicks and integrate all of your sales knowledge into a cohesive whole that you will automatically adjust in each new situation. This means more sales! And more satisfied customers! How ICTech® works: You're a salesperson whose Natural Style is 'Single.' What do you do with a 'Multiple' style prospect?
Many sales people who use ICTech® close 5 to 7 of ten presentations. What would happen for any salesperson who could cut through the mental baggage of a prospect and give a presentation with a 50% to 70% chance of closing? Simple. Revolutionary!
