  • Are You Disconnected From Reality?

    23/08/2010 Duration: 12min

    I’m sure there’s a name for this condition…but we’re wondering sometimes how disconnected salespeople are from the reality of the sales process—and the prospect. To us, there is a massive disconnect that begins almost immediately between salesperson and prospect. And to not address it is to abdicate control—and lose the sale. But there is a better way, and in this podcast, Bill and Bryan reveal it.

  • Mistakes in Hiring–And Getting Hired

  • Influencing The Decision Process

    28/06/2010 Duration: 13min

    Whenever we say 'process' to a sales person, we get yawns and indifference. But the fact is that every sales problem you have...probably...has something to do with a chink in your process. In this episode, Bill and Bryan look into the ever-important issue with 'decision process' and how you can better influence it.(Podcaster Notes: The decision process is one of those hard to teach skills in sales. We have found recently that the decision process for many companies has become more centralized--which brings with it additional trouble for sales people. It seems that every decision is reviewed, analyzed and audited. And if the purchase doesn't bring with it a cost savings or revenue growth, it's put off. So, as sales professionals, you MUST know how decisions are made and, when possible, be a part of them.)
