Have You Ever Felt You Didn't Know How You'd Get Your Next Sale?
Unless you’re already a top producer I suspect your answer is “yes”. It’s a problem that just won’t go away until you decide to do something about it once and for all.

Preselling Your Suspects
The goal of a suspect mailing is not to sell. The goal is to build enough trust and confidence to convert that suspect into a prospect. Once a suspect converts to a prospect, you'll stand a much better chance of selling them something.

Making the most of Up Selling & Cross Selling
Do you sell one thing and one thing only? Probably not. I suspect your business has a range of things it can offer. And I suspect that many of these things can be integrated together to make an end-to-end solution or various combinations that lead to much larger sales. If this is the case, then how well are you selling in the size and scope of your business offerings? Too many times sales people get fixated on the immediate sale in front of them not really seeing the potential of that sale now or into the future. If they would only ask the right questions and get a bigger perspective to work from they might get more and bigger sales for less effort.

Sales: Tips for Cold Calling
Wwhen you Cold Call - whilst your goal is to create life-long customers, the purpose of a Cold Call is to take Suspects to Qualified Prospects. What I mean, is that when you Cold Call on someone, you SUSPECT they could use what you're selling, but you're not certain. After you've called on them and discussed what your product can do, you will know if the Suspect is really a fit for your product or not. Once you have a qualified prospect, you then focus on converting them to a customer, and then to a life long customer. How do you qualify a Suspect to a Prospect? You need to know who your target customer is - I discuss this in Finding Your Niche Part 1: Listen To Your Potential Clients - only when you know the clients who will best suit your business.

Mortgage Rates And Subprime Crisis – An Overview
The global subprime crisis had such far-reaching implications that it is impossible to spell out in a few sentences the large-scale affect it caused on the economy of the world. As expected, Canada too did not escape the worldwide wrath. The fallout has been extensive. Today, money borrowers are bombarded with terms such as prime mortgage rate and subprime mortgage rate. What do these expressions mean? A rudimentary understanding of different types of credit is as much essential as getting to know of terms such as Canada prime mortgage rate. First here is some nitty gritty of what prime interest rate is.

Women in business
I was speaking to someone from overseas the other day and he said he never thought he would see the day when Australia elected a female Prime Minister. His perception of Australia was that our culture was very ‘blokey’. So you would think that the appointment of Prime Minister Julia Gillard was the result of great change, an indication of how successful women have become in the workforce. Think again. In the recently published report by the Equal Opportunity for Women in the Workplace Agency it made clear that the number of female key executive managers and board directors in the ASX 200 has hardly changed over the past eight years. In comparison with New Zealand, the UK, Canada, the US and South Africa, Australia has the lowest percentage of women in the most senior positions. So what exactly is going on?

Successful Sales Tips for Beginners – Sales Tip #2
Until you determine whether an organization or individual can utilize and benefit from your product &/or service, they are a 'suspect'. You suspect they have a need that your product &/or service will fill. Your responsibility is to ask qualifying questions and listen closely to the answers. Then ask additional questions and continue listening before articulating how your product &/or service will provide value, increase productivity or efficiency. Until qualified, a ‘suspect’ is not a prospect. You cannot begin to even think your product &/or service will provide value without understanding the needs of the suspect. Develop questions providing information allowing you to quickly qualify or disqualify a suspect, avoiding wasted effort and time. If you disqualify a ‘suspect’, quickly shift the conversation (perhaps a referral partner?)

"You" and "We" Sales and Marketing
As you move a customer from “suspect” to “prospect” your message moves from being exclusively about them to about you (both). Start with “you” and end with “we” to create discussion and a solution that is mutually beneficial!

What To Do If You're Afraid of Being Fired
Losing your job is hard at any time, but if you know or suspect in advance, you can soften the effects by being prepared.
