1.8 Making money work for poverty reduction: Working Out of Poverty
It is impossible to build an enterprise without access to credit. Poor people all over the world have little access to formal financial services. Microfinance activities go hand in hand with entrepreneurship, enabling the poor to borrow for productive purposes, save and build their assets. The ILO has advised central banks on the design of laws and regulations for povertyoriented banks. This has been instrumental in creating an enabling environment for pro-poor banks to emerge and prosper, particularly in Africa.

Consultative Selling
Consultative selling is a highly evolved and extraordinarily successful approach to selling. In consultative selling, the entire sales process is oriented toward the salesperson, or “consultant”, understanding the nature of and assisting his customer or client in the solving of the client's product-related problems.

Does A Hard Sell Work?
As many of you know I have a strong bias towards a consultative approach to selling. I share the values and competencies required for successful consultative selling, and despise those of the “hard sell”. I’ve also assumed that the consultative approach gets better results, that people resist a hard sell, and that a hard sell is not at all effective with large ticket sales. But I recently came across a sales organization that questioned these assumptions.
Tips For Brainstorming
Brainstorming is one of many creative problem solving techniques. While you can use any size group, we believe it works best when done in a facilitated group of 5-10 people. The more diverse the group the more diverse the input. The group members don't need to be experts in your field. In fact, they don't need to know anything about the problem topic at all! The following steps I use in my Many Good Ideas Brainstorming Seminars:
KfW Entwicklungsbank, Development Arm of German Bank, Lends $14.7m to Moroccan Microfinance Institution (MFI) Fondation pour le Développement Local et le Partenariat (FONDEP)
The Microfinance Capital Markets Newsletter of the Consultative Group to Assist the Poor (CGAP) reported that KfW Entwicklungsbank, the emerging-economy financing arm of a German banking group, issued a loan of EUR 10 million (USD 14.7 million) to the Fondation pour le Développement Local et le Partenariat (FONDEP), a Morocco-based non-governmental organization (NGO). The loan accompanies a convention of partnership signed by both parties that aims to establish a basis for future collaborations. The loan is refundable over eight years with a grace period of two years.
Home Business Expert: How To Create Your Own Mastermind Group
Forming your very own mastermind group where there will be others who do the same kind of job or are in the same business has many advantages. Such groups may have two members and in some cases, there are more than two who form the group. Everyone who is a part of the group has a lot to gain in terms of professional knowledge and experience from each other.
Consultative Needs Based Selling Approach
Looking at your business from a sales perspective and most importantly understanding your business from a client perspective, is one of the most important first steps in sales. Most people hate being sold to but love the feeling of buying; so the clearer you can explain how your business helps and "what is in it for them" the easier it makes prospective customers to make a buying decision. The consultative/problem solver approach qualifies and listens to the customer and helps them to buy what they need. The consultative approach focuses on the needs of the customer and how you improve or benefit them in some way.

Stepping Beyond Consultative Sales
Collaborative or consultative selling. What’s the difference? Aren’t they interchangeable terms? Not really. Collaboration is a step beyond traditional consultative selling. And an opportunity to sell more WITH your buyers.
How to Put Consulting into Consultative Selling
To describe a sales approach as "consultative" doesn't really explain it. It's a broad identifier, like saying someone is religious, which doesn't say what kind of religion. Saying you are a consultative salesperson is like saying you're in the category of "solution-oriented selling" vs. the category of "fast-talking carnival hawker." But that doesn't mean you know HOW TO DO it.
