Selling the Customer What the Customer Needs Not What You Want
| |
| I’d like to tell you a little story about Sam, an old acquaintance of mine. The first time I met Sam I had stopped in his little general store while passing through town to buy some soda for my long car ride back home. His was the only store in this very small rural town and he did a sizable amount of business. As I walked down one of the aisles to get to the refrigerated coolers in the back where they kept the soda, I couldn't help but notice that the shelves were loaded with containers of salt for sale. There were salt containers from the front of the aisle to the back, from top to bottom, and on both sides of the aisle. I couldn't believe it, an entire aisle dedicated to just salt. |

How About, THANK YOU?
| |
| It started with a turkey. In the early days of a start-up company I once worked for, a plump turkey was a small thank you token given to employees around the holidays. The turkey-giving practice lasted maybe three years, until the growing size of the organization necessitated its change. And while enhanced benefits emerged to replace that poultry gift, I found it amazing that the missing turkey still appeared as a resentment issue five years later in employee forums. |

Jonesing for a Jones: Van Stolk’s Company Goes Global

| Sitting on a shelf just outside van Stolk’s office were two two-litre jugs of Sam’s Choice soda from Wal-Mart. “They’re there so that every day, as I walk past, I’m reminded of what I don’t want to be,” he said. |

Rise and Shine
| |
| In today’s uncertain times, I constantly hear people gripe about how “business is slow, nobody’s buying” and “everybody’s cutting back.”For too long, many salespeople and business owners have been on the proverbial “gravy train.” Supply was less than demand and people got away from effective business basics. Besides, why should anyone hustle when business is lined up?
