The good news is there are endless resources on the internet to learn these &#8220;secrets&#8221;. Marc Wayshak has several articles posted on Sales Insights Lab that displays some of these trade secrets. One article of particular interest is his article, &#8220;Never Ask These 5 Terrible Sales Questions&#8221;. Throughout this article, Wayshak presents some questions that any salesperson should typically avoid asking.<\/p>\n<p>His first question that he asserts should not be asked is plainly, &#8220;how are you?&#8221;. He continues to explain that the question is not inherently bad, but the usual thoughtlessness behind it isn&#8217;t endearing. Wayshak explains that it is better to differentiate yourself from other typical salespeople. When you ask the same questions as other salespeople, you&#8217;ll get the same robotic response from your potential buyer and they will not think any differently about you than they would the last 100 salespeople they&#8217;ve talked to.<\/p>\n<p>Another question that Wayshak says should not be asked in a sales scenario is, &#8220;what would get you to buy&#8221;. This is another question that is commonly asked by salespeople. Wayshak explains that it is just flat-out a bad question to ask, almost always. When a salesperson asks this question almost always the potential buyer feels immense pressure and will usually respond with resistance. Wayshak explains the importance of not focusing on getting the potential buyer to in fact buy, but that it&#8217;s important to focus on the individual potential buyer and help solve their pain points.<\/p>\n<p>Wayshak continues on to several more questions that should not be asked in sales situations in his article. Exposing these questions that should not be asked is extremely beneficial for new salespeople and even veteran salespeople.
