Let clients sell themselves

Stop living off the mother of invention (necessity)

Natural Selling Principles

  1. Helping other people solve their problems
    1. ask questions; listen; feed back the intentions
    2. clients
      • have the history of what is and has happened in their lives
      • know their needs
      • have answers to questions, but they don't have the solution … you do
    3. you have questions and possible solutions
    4. dialogue is the mechanics: ask questions, listen, feed back
  2. Listening to what is being meant (emotional), not just what is being said (logical)
    • emotion motivates
  3. Letting others persuade themselves
  4. Feeding back what you think you heard the other person wants
