| Greetings! |
Welcome to The TWS Metropolis Newz, our monthly newsletter that will provide you with quick and useful articles, books, Websites, motivation and information on our events and services.
"Serving is the New Selling"
"Brand Butler" is a sales trend that emerged early last year and is now a leading approach with businesses and companies. This shifting from sales centric to customer needs centric is simply about listening to what customers tell you they need and delivering it. The relationship forged becomes a very loyal one. When collaboration and innovation combine you get the Baby Brand Space; a Brand Butler example and brilliant idea for families traveling with kids. How will you "serve" this year and make a difference?
 TWS Tool Box
Prospecting: The process by which salespeople determine whether or not a business or an individual could qualify as a potential customer.
Knowledge is king.
Know your product, the market you are doing business in and what your competition does better than you.
Qualify who the best "target customers" are for you to spend your time and energy on working the 80/20 rule.
80% of your business will come from 20% of your customers.
Enjoy! |
