Contrary to the popular belief, sales people don’t rely on “the gift of the gab” to be successful. Actually, the opposite is true. The best sales professionals spend far more time asking and listening than they do talking and selling. They ask questions of their customers; they ask questions of their colleagues, and they ask questions of their managers. If Oxford defines curiosity as the strong desire to know or learn something, then by that definition, sales people are curious by nature. In fact, that’s how sales professionals learn to be professional in the first place. This is a collection of practical answers to questions sales people ask most. Written by Susan A. Enns, a professional sales coach with a proven track record of sales excellence over her 30 plus year career. Her accomplishments include consecutively being the top sales rep in Canada, managing the top sales branch, and achieving outstanding sales growth in a national channel sales organization. She has written several books about sales and sales management and has created numerous automated sales tools. Her work has been published in several locations numerous times and has sold on five separate continents. As such, over the years, Susan has been asked many questions by many sales people. After a while, she saw that sales people, regardless of their experience, the products they sell, the industries in which they operate, or the countries where they sell, all share similar curiosities. In other words, although the wording may be different when asked in an email or when asked in person, sales people all ask the same questions, the most common of which are answered in this ebook. As the old saying goes, the only stupid questions are the ones unasked. As a sales professional, you should never be afraid to “Ask the Sales Coach” because you will learn so much from the answers! - "Susan really knows the selling world.
