Gap Sell Keenan #65 - Telling is not Selling
Manage episode 380862792 series 2825138
In recent episodes, a clear theme has emerged - there's a lot of telling and not enough asking in sales. What distinguishes a successful salesperson from an average one is the ability to influence the sale. It's not about regurgitating industry facts and figures; true influence comes from understanding, articulating value, and asking the right questions. Just as at a party, where someone who talks only about themselves is a conversation killer, in sales, being a product feature parrot is a turn-off. Instead, the key is to ask, understand, and convey the value you can bring to your prospect's business. In the world of 'Good Selling,' it's all about asking, learning, and listening. Encourage your customers to share their needs, desires, and obstacles. Are you engaging with them in a way that invites them to open up about their business?
