In class this past Wednesday, Mr. VanEerden said that one of the key principles to selling well is having a good predisposition. \u00a0This is something that we don’t often talk about in a sales class or even in business in general. \u00a0It’s all about how to react in different situations and how to solve problems that arise, but I think it is so important to recognize that these tactics and lessons we learn will probably matter little if people don’t like us.<\/p>\n
As sales people we will often be in situations where we are more informed on our products or brand than the people we are talking to, and if not careful we could end up sounding arrogant or talking down to these people. \u00a0Even if they like the product or service that you’re offering you could turn them away by making them feel stupid or simply because they dislike you and go somewhere else for a product that may not serve their needs as well.<\/p>\n
This is a great principle, because you can practice it easily in day to day life. \u00a0Just be nice to people! \u00a0Ask how your neighbor is doing, and genuinely want to know the answer. \u00a0Hold a door open for someone, even if you have to wait a few seconds extra. \u00a0Be invested and present in each conversation you are in. \u00a0Just be kind to people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
