Closing the Sale With Ease
How confident are you when the time comes to close the sale? One of the most consequential factors at play that can contribute to a successful closing (and possibly understanding when you should move on) has to be the leverage and confidence you posses when going into a sale. Apply the following information effectively and you will be able to build both your confidence and leverage.
Stop emotional attachments when they are clouding your vision.
Emotional attachments can reek of desperation whether focused on the ego, the money or the time invested into your sales process. And anyway, many prospects see right through the desperation or need for a quick sale and can even sense that your pitch is now more focused on getting a deal done than it is about the solutions and value you can offer. You need to be able to close the sale with a greater sense of confidence. This, in turn, should eliminate bad deals altogether.
Manage your pipeline.
You need to manage all of your accounts over the entire sales process using an account profile management system-a corkboard will suffice-to post prospect information on as they progress through sales cycle stages. This is a great way to visually follow your sales activity. There are software programs that do the same thing, however, seeing your writing and notations up on your wall is a constant reminder to work harder. Engaging yourself in activity's which move you through your sales cycle will give you the power to either close a sale or walk away confidently.
Formulate your value statement.
You need to believe in your mission, the products you market and understand what benefits are your customers receiving. And the term, "Value statement" denotes the fact that you need to have a very enthusiastic and confident belief in whatever you are selling. A lot of it can come from the positive results experienced by your clients.
Possess a very stout history and track record.
Amassing an impressive track record full of positive testimonials and results is priceless. For your closing ratios to increase, you should be focused on all of the great results you can provide your customers with. Ask your prospects what they want to do with your services or products once they are in possession of them. Understand what their specified objectives are and then over deliver those objectives. Because in the future when you need help closing a deal, you can contact these satisfied customers who will gladly help you out.
