8am: Systematic Selling: Successful sellers take a systematic approach to developing new business. They follow a tried and true, step-by-step process that produces predictable and consistent outcomes. In this module you will learn about the Sandler Selling System and how you can remove roadblocks and ensure a successful outcome to every selling opportunity.
9am: Bonding and Building Rapport: Developing rapport with a prospect is a critical part of any selling system. It is the first step in creating a relationship of mutual trust. In this module you will learn how to use active listening and the OK-Not OK principle to establish a solid relationship quickly. You will also learn to recognize the communication style of the person you are meeting with and how to mirror and match their preferred style.
10:00am: Making Upfront Contracts: One of the keys to successful selling is to maintain control during the selling process. The Upfront Contract is the tool that will enable you to maintain control while not becoming overly pushy or aggressive. In this module you will learn how and when to use appropriate Upfront Contracts in order to produce yes or no outcomes consistently.
11:00am: Uncovering the Prospect’s Pain: Prospect’s buy for their reasons, not the seller’s reasons. And buying decisions are usually made emotionally, and only justified intellectually. Learn how to uncover the prospect’s needs, wants, challenges and problems. Or what David Sandler called “pain.” You will also learn how to use the questioning strategies above to be able to quantify and personalize the pain the prospect is experiencing.
