These are the tips I wish I read about sales when I was 22...

1. Family and friends are the easiest cutomers

Whenever starting a business, the easiest sale would be to the people who already trust you.

If the product is relevant, offer it to them!

2. People will buy you more than they buy your product

If people like you, they are more willing to buy from you.

In fact, they are willing to reject other offers which are better, just because they like you and your personality.

3. Buyers focus on the perceived value, more than the actual price

Everything and anything can be expensive and cheap for different people.

Person A, hates football: a shirt signed by messi holds no value to them.

Person B, loves football: is willing to pay $10000 for that same shirt.

4. To sell more, you need to connect with more people

Word of mouth is one of the most powerful sales drivers.

5. Treat sales, like you would treat dating

If you know that she won't marry...

1. Be direct with what you want

When building your business it's important to state exactly what you want.

This means:

1. Asking customers to buy
2. Asking what you could do better
3. Asking why your customers didn't buy.

2. Focus on the results

Most businesses are vague about exactly what results they bring their customers.

Ask yourself how you quantitatively impact the bottom line of your customers.

Then communicate it to customers to build your reputation around bringing results.

3. Take action more than planning.

When creating a new product or service its easy to get stuck in planning stages.

Planning a million theories will not bring your brand success.

Put an idea to work and learn from the outcome

4. Focus on the journey.

We live in a time of instant gratification, as a result, this has led us to expecting instant success.

 Create a piece of content = brand will go viral

 Launch a product = sales are going to roll in on the first try

This leads to...

These phrases will damage your sales!
To grow your business and make more money, do not use them.

1. 'I am sorry that I am late' 

This lowers your status and puts emphasis on the fact you were late.

Instead, simply say:
Thank you for your patience.

2. 'Do you make the decisions'?

This can appear disrespectful to the person you are talking with and break the deal.

Instead, simply ask this:
Who else will be involved in the process of making the decision? 

3. Would you like us to work together?

Cmon, this sounds like a kid in school asking another one 'wanna be my friend'...

Instead, use the assumptive close and say:
Would you be paying with your debit or should we do a paypal?

4. We only work with the best

Many people do not want to be the best or strive to be the best. It sounds gimmicky and elitist without need.

It sounds cool to say this, but it will cost you a lot of sales... 

5. My competitors are worse than me

You're making your offers look too expensive.

And it's losing you money.

When you sell your service or product, never lead with your cheapest offer.

Because anxiety increases as your price increases.

To prevent customers bouncing, use the contrast principle:

The contrast principle uses three offers - making the middle option most appealing for higher profit.

Remember:

1. Don't start with your most expensive option first.

2.  The contrast principle reduces stress as you present your offer.

3. The goal is for you to make more money.

4. Make your middle option the most appealing for higher profit.
