Business Tip of the Week

Do You Possess These Critical Elements For Sales Success?

An outgoing personality and influential contacts alone will have little impact unless they are part of a bigger framework built on three critical elements:  

Competence, Confidence, and Commitment.

 

Competence tops the list because in the sales arena, you can "fake it" for only so long. Customers prefer to do business with salespeople who bring more to the table than an order form or a contract. They prefer salespeople who also bring insight and ideas they can use to improve, grow, or transform their businesses.  

 

Confidence is what enables you to put your knowledge and skills into practice. You must have confidence in your company's ability to deliver the outcomes promised by its products and services. Most importantly, you must have confidence in yourself.  

 

Commitment "activates" the other two elements. Knowing what to do and how to skillfully do it is of little use if you don't take action. Results come from motion, not meditation. 

 

 This tip was submitted by David Fischer of Sandler Training, Chartwell Seventeen Advisory Group Inc. For more information on the above topic, call 646-790-5800.
