It's high time that you as a salesperson sincerely ponder how your consumers view you, your sales pitch and
your authenticity. You can do this simply and effectively by channeling your own experiences of encountering
zealous salespeople such as yourself. After you take some time to make the comparison, if you find flaws in your
own sales technique, it's high time you refocus your energy so that you can increase your sales.

Now, when you think about your experiences of let's say, a wobbly ineffectual or overly confident salesperson,
did you buy what they were selling? If you chose against purchasing with him or her, it's quite possibly because you
didn't feel right about making the purchase. Perhaps they were desperate for the sale and not trying to offer you
something valuable. The reason most sales pitches fail is because the seller treats the prospect like a 'sell' and
doesn't relate their pitch to that individuals purchasing method. The predicament with these pitches begins the

moment the salesperson decides to sell because the problem with their approach is focus.

As a salesperson, you are typically in a position that's primarily compensated by commission. As that is a common
case, you are probably concerned and focused on making and/or surpassing your quota so that you can keep your
head above water. If that is in fact the likely situation, when you deliver your pitch to a prospect, you're trying to sell
them something because you're concerned with "What's in it for me?" as opposed to "What's in it for them?"

When you place your responsibilities at the forefront of every deal, your focus of "What's in it for me?" consequently
leads you to pressure the prospect. If you switch gears and tailor yourself to focus on "what's in it for them?", you'll learn
how to relate to their purchasing method. Today, people are buying products and services that directly provide solutions
for a critical need. Therefore, if your product doesn't fit into that category, they won't be prone to purchasing from you

right away anyhow.

If you can learn to focus on the prospects necessities you'll be conducting a direct and connected dialogue with a prime
candidate for your product or service, even if they aren't motivated to buy immediately. If you can accomplish this, you can
more swiftly determine the best way to proceed, whether it be setting up an appointment or directing your prospect to call
you when they're ready or able to obtain your product or services. Also remember that if you create a positive and
connected dialogue, you'll set yourself up for referrals as people often turn to friends and family for advice before
purchasing. So, refocus your energy and intentions and you can begin breeding more sales and consistent referrals.
