SHOW NOTES:
This week next level entrepreneur and I took the conversation to another level as we chatted about
Highlights from the conversation:
Karen Graves
● Founder of karengravescoaching.com
● Started as a pharmaceutical sales rep, and after successful first years and promotions, she ended up in the sales training department as a manager. After the recession, she pursued a coaching certification and began her career as a coach.
Get into the proper mindset and sell your product/service
● Make peace with the fact that you are selling. Yes, you are going to present a product. yes, you are going to ask for someone's money. But there’s nothing wrong with that, because you are helping them.
● Sales is actually about helping someone make a decision. The person you are talking to has a problem that needs solving, and you may have a solution in the product or service you are selling. You are serving someone when you sell, and you are doing a disservice when you don’t.
● As a doctor, you also sell. No matter your specialty, you ultimately sell medicine, you sell lifestyle changes, you sell a change of environment... And you don't feel guilty for them because you know it’s good for the patient. Take that same approach to sales.
● Be clear of the value of what you are selling. Take in consideration the product or service itself of course, but also the long-term value they provide. For example: A burnout coach helping you organize your life. Of course, someone pays to stop getting burnout. But what about the long-term value? Reconnecting with their children, saving their marriage, loving their career again. Immediate value and long-term value: Help your prospective buyers connect the dots between the two.
● Be human, connect with your buyers, let them relate to you. Nobody will listen to a robot.
Getting people to say yes
● Change your pricing. You can set it up and then lower it. (discount!)
● Watch you speech. Are you communicating properly? Are your clients actually understanding you? Study the best way to make this happen.
