- Julie Magnani; JRM Associates
The training that I am getting from the Sandler Program is already starting to work in my sales calls. Just this week Shawn Enger and myself made a sales call where we were asking the prospect great questions. We had him talking about his business and what he was wanting, but we were not getting anywhere with him. He just was not responding to what we were doing.
At the time I noticed that the sales call was going to be a bust so I looked at him and asked him "if he was to put together a program how would he do it?" He then began to tell us exactly what he would wanted and how he would do it. Without the Sandler Training I would have never asked him this and gotten to the point where we might have a future customer. In the past we would have gotten up and left the sales call thinking that we could not do anything for him.
Also having a system to follow on setting up a quality sales call has worked as well. looking for the customers pain and finding a reason for the prospect to invite me in to talk to them has given me better prospect calls and having a reason to go and see them makes it easier to find more pain to sell on.
