Every business needs to sell to survive. But your organization’s team doesn’t need to be full of extroverted people with the gift of gab to make a sale. They just need to learn how to follow a sales system.

If you’re looking to learn how to sell, BigSpeak Speaks Bureau works with some of the best Keynote Sales Speakers who can help you learn the proven skills of selling. Skills you can put into practice the same day.

Here are five things you will learn.

Follow a System

Selling is not an innate talent. It’s a system that anyone can learn to do. In fact, you sell people every day, even if it’s just where to go to lunch or what show to stream. You just need to translate the skills into a system for selling your service or product.

Listen to Your Client

When people imagine sales, they imagine a sales pitch. The salesperson is talking all the time, describing features, and offering a great deal. In fact, making a sale is less about talking and more about listening. It’s about asking questions and finding the answer to solve a client’s problems.

Solve Problems

If you want to be an effective salesperson, you need to be a problem solver. Making a sale is all about solving your customer’s problem. You listen to what is causing problems for your client and provide solutions with your product or service.

Tell a Story

Successful salespeople are all storytellers. Storytelling is not a sales pitch. A story is about how you helped someone solve their problem with your service or product. The most effective salespeople know that a personal story will sell a product faster than a list of features.

Build a Relationship

Finally, making a sale is all about building relationships. It’s about connecting with another person. If you can connect with a person, you can make a sale down the line. Maybe not today, but probably tomorrow. And if you maintain that good relationship, people will come back to buy from you.
