Calendars
Landscapes of America - 7001
An independently owned hotel wanted a gift to hand out to customers
during their busy fall-colors tourist season. Their promotional
products distributor suggested using calendars. Since the hotel
needed a very economical yet effective product, the distributor
recommended using a calendar style from Good Value Calendars.
The hotel chose the 7001 Landscapes of America calendar, as the
scenic pictures were a perfect fit for their business. They ordered
4,000 calendars, and distributed them to guests when they handed in
their keys for checkout. Many of the guests appreciated their gift,
and remarked that having the hotel's contact information on their
calendar would make it easier for them to book reservations the
following year.

Are You Making These Mistakes Closing Sales?
by Jim Klein
I receive many emails from sales people who are having basically the
same problem. Repeatedly I hear the same story. It goes something
like this: "I get the appointment with the prospect, the meeting
seems to go well, however, I can't close the sale".
When I answer the email or speak with them on the phone, I find they
are all making the same mistakes. They are common mistakes with the
majority of sales people, so if you are one of them, you are not
alone.
So, what mistakes are they making? I can sum all these mistakes up
by saying, they are skipping steps in the sales process. They have
not prepared themselves to have the best opportunity to make the
sale and then they blame the prospect for not buying
How can you overcome these mistakes?
First, accept responsibility for not closing the sale. If you walk
out without the sale, you did something wrong. I know it's easier to
blame the prospect, however, the prospect is not at fault, you are.
At some point during the process, you didn't do your job!
Don't close the sale, assume the sale. By assuming the sale you are
putting your self in the strongest possible selling position. When
you assume the sale, you believe you will make every sale you
attempt.
It's simple, however, it's not easy. It takes a lot of work both
before and during the sale.
It begins by having a positive attitude, enthusiasm, and complete
self confidence in your self and your abilities. You need to have a
thorough knowledge of the product or service you are selling and the
belief it will benefit your prospects.
You need to have a heart felt desire to help your prospect that
exceeds your desire to earn money for making the sale.
Furthermore, you need to master all the steps in the sales process
and complete each step during every meeting with a prospect, before
moving to the next step.
If you have...
Built rapport and the prospect likes you and trusts you.
Asked the right questions to determine the needs of the prospect.
Concluded your product or service will satisfy their needs.
Presented the benefits of your product or service as the solution to
their problem.
Then assume the sale and it should belong to you. You see, closing
the sale is only one step in the sales process. You don't close the
sale, you follow the steps of the sales process and guide your
prospect to making a wise decision, the decision to purchase your
product or service.
Many sales people are searching for some magic technique to use on
the prospect to close the sale, when learning and applying the steps
of the sales process is all they really need.
I understand the magic technique would be easier, because then they
could take the easy route, skip all the steps and go right to the
close.
I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this...
There is no magic technique, so stop searching the internet looking
for one. Instead, spend your time in a much more effective way,
mastering the sales process. Then watch your sales soar.
Another big mistake these sales people are making is not getting the
proper sales training. Again, they are looking to cut corners and
find that magic technique. They don't want to put in the effort to
become the best.
The U.S. Open Golf Championship was this past weekend and whether
you are a fan of golf or not, I'm sure you've heard who was right
there again, as he usually is, in a position to win.
Tiger Woods.
If you know any thing about Tiger, you know how he got to be one of
the greatest golfers to ever play the game. He made a commitment to
"master" the game of golf.
In sales it's the same. Ask any of the top 10% sales professionals
how they got to the top, and they'll tell you they did so by
mastering the sales process.
