Going to a meeting with a client, you need to collect the maximum information about him. Sources of data useful to the seller can be media, the Internet, customers, advertising, reviews, competitors. Any fact about a potential buyer can be an important clue. Based on the data about the future customer, you can make a summary of his potential needs, outline a conversation plan, find a topic for conversation before making contact. Not knowing who you are going to, what your client is doing, you risk ruining the whole meeting.

Follow sales technology. Of course, one should not strictly adhere to the established scheme, if it is logically necessary to act a little differently. But you must keep in mind the approximate course of the conversation and not deviate from it very much. It is important to first establish a trusting relationship with the client, to find an approach to it. This will help you with the information that you have collected and analyzed in the first step, as well as the ability to keep in touch with the interlocutor.

It happens that sales managers make a serious mistake, moving from acquaintance to the presentation of the product. Even if there is only one name in your catalog, you need to identify the needs of the client in order to understand what is important to him. Using open, closed, and alternative questions, you can form an opinion about a product, service, or a specific quality of your product that may be of interest to a potential buyer.

Surely you will not have any particular problems with the presentation, because catalogs and brochures contain a lot of qualities and advantages of the goods and services that your company offers. Your responsibility is to present exactly the advantages that your customer wants to see in their purchase. Speak to him not about the individual properties of the product, but about how the buyer will benefit from its acquisition.

Do not miss the important moment when you should conclude a deal, sign a contract or obtain the consent of the client. It happens that managers go through all stages of sales very well, but the end of the deal is somehow blurry. Prepare several options for how you can end the conversation with the client, and offer one of them - clearly and confidently.

Knowledge and practice are extremely important in the success of sales. However, your mood is no less important. To always be in the right mood, you need to love your work, respect customers and be confident in your product. The ability not to give up after several failures and recharge yourself with optimism is a key quality of a successful seller.
