My first Magazine Five Tips to Seal the Deal | Seite 2

1. Knowing Your Customer
Starting with collecting information about the companies which you deem to be prospects is pre
requisite. Asking questions such as company size, industry they are in, location of the company and the
area they operate in, gives your sales people fair idea about who they are targeting.
2. Identifying Needs of the Customers
Do your target prospects really need the products you are offering? Instead of pushing your products
and services, you have to know what products and solutions they are looking for. Accordingly, you have
to fulfill their needs. You have to be honest in this assessment. If you cannot offer the desired products
and services they want to, accept that.
3. Minimizing Cold Approach
Stop Talking and start listening. This will save you a whole lot of energy and quality time. Your products
may be the best in the category and so you think talking about the superiority of the products is your
pre-owned right. But this practice may deviate you from your goal as the prospect’s goal and you may
not be aligned. Whether face-to-face or over the phone, listening to customer’s needs gives you far
better insights.
4. Identifying Decision Makers
Identify the decision makers of the prospect company, how do they make decisions, how many people
are involved in the process of decision making, what is their typical buying process, what is their buying
time cycle and time the company spends on purchasing a new product. The customer may not be
interested in buying a product now but they may be in the near future.
5. Ability to Replicate the Process
You may close deal with the above practices but this should not be a standalone action. There should a
process in place where your sales team can replicate the success model and also share it with other
members of the sales team. Have a consistent strategy for your company so that everyone’s qualifying
leads in the same way.
Thus your first and foremost target should be to qualify your leads before frittering away too much time
chasing someone who’s simply not interested. This can help you increase sales faster and save you
considerable time in the process.
