Jordan then proceeds to try his hand at selling Aerotyne stock to a client by using a less aggressive approach. By the end of the call, he sold $4,000 worth of Aerotyne stock within a minute and a half while his colleagues watched in utter amazement. Although Jordan&#8217;s tactics were manipulative and smarmy, there were two powerful strategies he used that are void of dishonesty and could actually be applied to a real selling situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One example is his repeated use of the client&#8217;s name. If rapport is not built, then the chances of closing a sale are slim to none. Some might view this tactic as insincere, but the truth is everyone wants to be acknowledged as a person with an identity, and using someone&#8217;s name is the quickest way to establish a more personal connection with them. I personally believe Jordan went a little overboard with how often he said the client&#8217;s name, but I cannot dispute the fact that he built rapport effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second example is Jordan&#8217;s use of inflection and tone. If I was on the receiving end of his call, I would believe he had genuine passion and conviction for the product\/service he was selling. A big component to selling anything is authentically communicating how you feel about it and being honest with your potential customer. It is much harder to sell a product to someone if they can tell you are not interested in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this scene from &#8220;The Wolf of Wall Street&#8221;, Jordan Belfort walks into Investors Center, a shady and unregulated penny stock trading firm where employees are displaying &#8220;unprofessional&#8221; selling tactics to get their clients to buy as little as $3 worth of stocks.
