I talk with high ticket founders every day who don't understand why top 1% reps tend to leave after the 6 or so month mark
But fail to come to terms with the fact that the vehicle they're placing them into, needs some significant maintenance…
Want to get better at sales?
Do these 3 things, DAILY—
✅ Listen back to one call
✅ Watch 30 mins of training
✅ Read 30 mins of business or industry-related material
M-F … no exceptions
Sales managers look for three things when hiring….
✅ Coachability
✅ Work-Ethic
✅ Experience
And being able to recognize what you don’t have as a sales rep—
Is the very first step if you want to get hired…
Highlighting what you DO have, is the second.
Sales is an energy exchange-
At its simplest form.
Prospects can FEEL if you don’t believe in your product or service.
Unwavering confidence that “this is what they need” —
While not coming across as needy is the balance you’ve been desperately looking for.
@mcuban Or it could be just about our only leverage in keeping China from fucking with us on end.
While keeping more jobs in America (discouraging overseas outsourcing and production) 🤷🏼♂️
Salespeople turn maybe’s into yes’s
Closers do that too
But can also turn a “no” into a “hell yes” …
Learn the difference-
And hire, train, and manage accordingly.
Objection handling all comes down to isolation.
If you can successfully help separate the confusion and worries inside a prospect’s head—
And present a solution / clear up that confusion-
You have a sale. Simple.
Knowing when to “lean out” from a sale is something the top 1% do regularly…
MOST reps will cave when prospects start asking for crazy guarantees…
Top 1% reps will lean out and simply ask—
“Do you normally ask for guarantees, when engaging in business transactions?”
50+% of maintaining a high close rate comes down to state management.
So if you’re not having those regular 1 on 1’s with your reps-
AND *not emphasizing health, maintenance, and routine time off—
Don’t expect your reps to perform at a high level consistently.
Simple.
If you’re getting the “I need to think about it” objection constantly—
Just know there is almost ALWAYS something under that
“I just need to think about it” …
