Hopes & Dreams Resource Tool The Turnover. It’s your resource to sealing the deal. After all, the ultimate goal with every customer interaction is 100% customer satisfaction, right? If personality does not click or the customer’s resistance is unshakable, TO the deal. Tell the customer to enjoy and find another salesperson (or manager) and let them know that you were unable to connect with the customer. Let your team mate approach the customer to see if they get a more positive reaction. This handoff encourages teamwork. If you TO and your co-workers do the same, it creates a triple win– for you, your team mate, and the customer. GO TEAM FREEDOM! Hopes & Dreams…. To say life is unpredictable would be an understatement. Most of us would agree. Unexpected joy, sadness, opportunity, and loss is all part of life. With all of these curve balls, why not be prepared? If you asked a friend would they prefer to be prepared for the unexpected, I bet they would say– Absolutely! So when you highlight the benefits of ancillary products and their added protections to customers, they too will say—Absolutely, sign me up! Highlight the peace of mind that can result from knowing they have 24 hour roadside assistance with UMC, just in case. Emphasize the value in having an extended 2 year warranty on that sofa, especially with little ones running around. 2 Share a success story about Debt Cancellation and how it saved our customer money in an unexpected, real life situation. “Thomas, a Freedom customer, was out running errands on 11/23/2011 when his apartment building caught on fire due to a grease fire. The fire, smoke, and in turn water used to put the fire out by the fire department, damaged a laptop, 32” TV, Queen bed and Serta mattress. Thomas had purchased the Debt Cancellation product and his entire debt of $4,646 was paid in full.” Use your ancillary knowledge to make your pitch, make it relatable, make it desirable, and make the sale. It’s your job to help make your customers’ hope and dreams come true with a purchase from you. Go a step further and help your customer protect that purchase with ancillary products.
