All service involves selling, and selling entails meeting needs. This two-part module shows how service staff can identify customers' needs and then meet them by asking questions and actively listening; giving advice based on product knowledge; bending the rules; providing 'extras' and add-on sales'; and taking personal responsibility for problems.
1: Find Out the Needs
This program highlights the importance of identifying what it is that customers and clients really want. It gives concrete suggestions as to how frontline staff can anticipate and establish their customers' service needs.
2: Meeting Needs
This program shows that one of the tests of excellent service is whether staff can do more than simply meeting customers' needs. We see examples of frontline staff who go out of their way to meet unusual requests and to add extra touches to the service they provide.
Featuring: James T. HealeyProgram Highlights
~ Why every one of us needs to know how to "sell."
~ How to change your tactics while keeping your strategy immutable.
~ How to play to the decision maker's personal agenda.
Sales are the lifeblood of every company. Developing the product can pale in comparison with getting out there and trying to sell it. In spite of this, selling is relegated to a footnote in the curriculum of many MBA programs, and salespeople "can't get no respect." Yet, as Jim Healy points out, if you underestimate the critical importance of selling, you can lose opportunities and risk getting sidelined by the competition.
When you're in the business of offering complex systems or services, selling is a process rather than a single event. Therefore, selling is not only an art, but it is also a science. It requires instinct, but also strategy. Without a clear strategy, Healy explains, the sale is lost before the battle even begins. And in order to create your strategy, you need a fundamental understanding of the four dynamic and interactive aspects of selling: analyzing the opportunity, positioning the solution, aligning with the power base, and overcoming resistance to buying. Healy details the steps you need to take to assemble these building blocks and beat the competition with an effective sales strategy.
Today, in many fields selling is about building long-term relationships with customers. For sales people, relationship selling is viewed as a continuous circle in which they analyze customer needs, present the benefit of their product or service, gain the commitment from customers, and provide service after the sale in order to have another opportunity to start the cycle again.
Perfect for new employees or freshen-up seasoned veterans, this program presents a logical, five-step selling process which new hires can easily memorize and start using with customers right away.
With scenes set in a florist's shop, a hardware store, a men's clothier, a women's boutique, a shoe store, an electronics shop, and others, we follow the entire selling process from start to finish, using the following steps:
~ Greet the customer
~ Determine his or her needs
~ Present merchandise
~ Validate the selection
~ Close the sale
A Sales Training Meeting in a Box!
Do you remember the old parable: "Give them a fish and they'll eat for a day, teach them how to fish and they'll eat for a lifetime" Well, closing the sale is the same thing. Teach them (your salespeople) the skill of how to improve their closing of sales and you give them and your organization a gift for a lifetime- consistently much higher sales. That's the gift that keeps on giving to everyone.
Research has clearly shown that if you don't ASK FOR THE ORDER, your probability of Closing is less than 20%.
That's why LearnCom and noted sales trainers Arthur R. Bauer and Gerald L. Manning have teamed up to produce this high powered video-based sales training course entitled ASK FOR THE ORDER!
With 11 realistic vignettes in diverse business settings with 43 different actors, the program brings its message to everyone in sales: rookies, veterans, field sales and telemarketing reps. Expert commentary by Art Bauer supplements the demonstrations of right way/wrong way closing techniques and the illustrations of selling skills for objections, buying signals, and closing questions.
