1 Not selling because you are scared to sound salesy

 Salesy isn't even a word in the dictionary.

 There is no definition for it. It's a made up thing to keep you poor.

 If you have an offer that helps people, then start promoting it!

2 Not searching for clients daily

If you are not actively searching for clients, you won't make money.

Just because you have clients today, doesn't mean you will tomorrow.

Dedicate 30 minutes every day to start new conversations.

3 Not trusting yourself or the product you sell

 You can't sell a product to a stranger, if you don't believe in it.

 The lack of confidence will keep you poor.

4 Not being consistent

 You can't give your everything 1 day, then sleep for a week.

 Show up as often as you can, but never quit.

5 You don't have an irresistible offer

 If your offer doesn't have 10x the value in relation to the price, change it.

 An irresistible offer has considerable less risk...

1. People don't like being told what to do. Try asking more questions. 

 Asking questions gives your customers a choice. Meaning your customers are far more likely to take action.

5....

1. Appeal to emotional attachments.

- Speak about your target audience friends, family or loved ones.

- Use scenarios that relate to the goals your customers wish to achieve with their loved ones

This creates a sense of relatability and understanding with your brand.

2. Appeal to your customers fundamental need to belong.

- Build your brand around a specific audience.

- Find a group of people that would benefit most from what you offer.

- Show the life they want to live & the people they want to associate with.

This appeals to humans psychological need to belong.

3. Appeal to your customers fundamental need for safety.

- Have a guarantee/money back policy in place.

- Customers need to feel they can trust you.

Customers want to know their investment with you is safe. Alleviate any uncertainty.

4. Appeal to your customers fundamental need for control.

- Give your customers a choice in what you have to offer.

- Always offer more than one solution

 Only offering one option...

1. You're pitching your product too soon

This keeps clients running away from you.

Instead, ask quality questions to understand exactly what they need.

Then provide solutions according to those needs.

2. You're only talking about you when reaching out to potential clients

If you want to convert more leads into clients, be a really good listener.

Allow them to express their frustration, as often times, they will communicate exactly what they want from you.

3. You're not following-up with value

80% of all deals require 6 to 12 points of contact in order for people to buy from you.

Follow-up is essential, and you need to do it by adding value to the customer:

"Just checking in to see what's up!

"I saw this article that I thought would be useful to you, let me know if you like it? "

4. You're not asking quality questions on sales calls

Talking about the weather it's great, but ineffective when it comes to business.

Instead, ask questions which help...

1. People don't like to be told what to do. Try asking more questions

Save this post!
Will you save this post?

This reinforces the idea that saving must be a good idea. It gives people a choke

2. Create an enemy to create your brand's tribe

People advocate for brands with a clear enemy.
By creating a common enemy you tap into your customers need to get their voice heard

Nike's enemy is doing nothing.

Apple's enemy is a lack of innovation

3. Use the "Small Daily Equivalence" effect

Break down your product or service price daily
Compare it to a low cost commodity (like a cup of coffee)

This makes your product look more affordable.

Sales is a skill composed by many other skills

These S will get you ahead of the 96% of other sales people:

1. Empathy

Being able to understand how people truly feel it's powerful.

If you master empathy, you will know exactly what to offer people.

2. Listening in detail

Capturing important details by actively listening is key.

Often times, leads will tell you exactly what they need. If you listen closely, you will offer exactly that.

3.Persuasion

The ability to convince people to trust what you are saying.

Mastering persuasion will allow you to live a better life in general.

Every day, we try to persuade people to believe something is good or bad.

Start doing it intentionally.

4. Psychophysiology and lie detection

I graduated in Psychophysiology - the understanding between mind and body.

Best decision of my life.

While working 6+ years in lie detection, I am now capable of predicting what people will say or do in given situations.

5. Emotional...

1. Visual Depiction Effect

People buy products that they can see themselves using. Make your products look ready to use.

2. Exclude people with your marketing, rather than attract.

1. Zone in one message, one goal, one mission.
2. Filter out people that are not a good fit.
3. Only speak to your true ideal customers.

3. You don't have to be everywhere. Show up in one place and be exceptional.

Many marketers will have you believe you need be everywhere, this leads to stress and burnout.

1. Focus on one platform
2. Hone your craft and master the platform.
3. You'll attract more than enough customers to make a 6+ figure business.

4. Rather than market to your ideal customers. Market to who they want to be.

People desire achieving who they want to be, rather than who they are.

Reflect this life in your brand and marketing to draw customers to your brand.

5. Successful brands create mental ownership inside their customer's mind

1. First they use a trigger word, such as...

1.Use the assumptive close

Whenever asking for a payment at the end of your sales calls, do NOT do this:

•   Wanna start work? Do you like it?

• Instead, assume that they will work with you, and give them 2 options. Both options favourable to you.

"Which package would you like to invest in? A or B?"

2. Use the, no-risk, full benefit close

Lay out all the benefits of your programme, and add a guarantee on top.

Only then, reveal the price and ask:

How would you like to pay, paypal or card? 

3. Same boat, row ahead close

Present someone who was in the exact same situation as them. Then showcase their transformation, and say:

"Rob was in the exact same situation as you, he was looking for X, Y and Z. Fast forward 3 months after, those are his results. If you are looking for similar results, let's start Monday" 

4. You are privileged close

Make them see that the sole reason of them being able to afford your service, is a...

• Giving discounts to every customer creates a bad reputation.

• You create your brand around being a "discount giver"...

• This gives your customers power over your price, which they shouldn't have.

Only you get to decide your price.

• When your price is always discounted it creates a habit with your customers to only buy from you when it's cheap...

  Thus, never buying from you at full price.

• When you do offer your product at full price, they go to another cheaper option. You end up stuck in an endless price war in a bid to win customers on price...

Rather than winning customers over on loyalty to you, your brand, and the experience you work hard to deliver.

• Discounts are a double-edged sword.

Reserve them for the right occasions:

 New product launch (introductory price point)

 To reward existing loyal customers

 Bulk orders

 Long term retainers (ie signing a 6 month service)
