YOU CAN LEAD A HORSE TO WATER BUT YOU CANT MAKE HIM SELL OR CAN YOU
By Mike Schultz and John Doerr Recently, we presented to a group of firm leaders across a range of service areas on how to sell professional services. During the Q & A session, one leader of an engineering firm asked, “This is all great stuff, but how do you get them (my engineers) to sell? I mean, I have tried everything, but they still would rather do just about anything but sell.” Well, short of walking around with a large stick and a menacing attitude, we suggest you will inspire more of the professionals in your firm to sell by helping them get into the right frame of mind to become a rainmaker. It is not just a question of telling them to go out and sell; you need to take care of the following six areas to get the activity you want.

5 Checks to Increase Your Sales Success
No matter how ready you are to sell something you can’t sell anyone anything they don’t want. You can say all the right things yet walk away without a sale and not know why. However, if you’ll add these 5 checks to your sales conversation list you’ll sell more.

The 7 Secrets to Improved Prospecting
Prospecting is a core skill anyone in sales absolutely must master. Without prospects you have no one to sell to. Without someone to sell to you can’t sell.

Top 3 Ways to Influence Your Bottom Line
Go out and sell something! Way too many companies adhere to this line of thinking and sell the wrong prospect at the wrong margins. Before you get ready to “sell something,” put some thought into who you should sell to, how to create the opportunity to sell, and what it takes to gain a competitive advantage resulting in a profitable win.
Increase Sales by Understanding Your Sales Process
As a business coach, at some point early in my relationship with my clients I'll ask them to map out their sales process and it never ceases to amaze me that some of those really smart businesspeople have never sat down to look at how they sell, how they train their people to sell, and what works - or doesn't! I'll often get the response, "Well, we just sell it to them", which doesn't give one much traction when it comes to assessing or improving sales. The first two things you need to know in order to be able to assess your selling process are real answers to the questions, "Why do people buy what you sell?" and "Why do they buy it from you?"

The Hard Sell
I declare right up front that I am not, and never have been a fan of the Hard Sell. You have probably guessed that from all my previous posts. And if you ask most people about what they think about the profession of selling they will often describe something akin to the ‘Hard Sell'. Of late I have also noticed a rise in ‘hard sell' stories where people are being unnecessarily pressured to buy or sales people being pressured to sell at almost any cost. The hard times may be pushing some people to do things they wouldn't normally do like the "Hard Sell".
How to Start Liquidation Business
Before we go into some of the first steps of how to start liquidation business practices, you must understand what exactly you will be selling. The gist of the business is simple; someone buys stock for their business to sell and cannot sell the items. When these items do not sell in time for new items to replace them, they become surplus. Surplus is bad for any company for one basic reason; it takes up space. The business with the surplus has two choices at this point. These two choices are to pay someone to dump or otherwise dispose of their excess or to sell it at a drastically reduced cost to offset their losses. The liquidator will act as a broker on behalf of the merchandiser and sell their product for them.
Sell More By Giving Away Control
If you want to sell more efficiently, if you want to sell more to existing clients, if you want to gain bigger commissions from your prospects then you need to learn to sell possibilities and opportunities. You need to learn to sell by giving your prospect or existing customer options and control!
Selling Art to Men
You can't sell a man art the way you sell a woman art. You need to sell a man art the way he wants to be sold art, and he likely knows exactly what will work for him and what will not. He may not reveal it to you--he may just walk away.
