The Sales Presentation
Approach

Objections
Negotiations
Close
Слайд 12
The Approach
Eliminate possible distractions
Lead with a question to involve client-and don’t say “how
are you?”
State the purpose of call in terms of your customers need
Get agreement on the need
Слайд 13
The Body of the Presentation
Use all senses possible
Be aware of clues—body language, questions,
etc
Sell benefits not features
Make it logical and end by filling the need
Слайд 14
Objections-Your Best Friend
Objections are the client telling you how to sell them
Restate the
objection
Answer in terms of your product’s benefits
Move on
Слайд 15
Negotiation
End body of presentation with trial close
If you get a “yes”--stop selling and
start writing
If you get a “no” ask “why not”
Answer objection, negotiate, and trial close again
Слайд 16
Close
Either/or— ”would you like delivery on Friday or next Monday”?
“Is that the only
thing that is stopping you from buying”?
Always, always ask for the order
Слайд 17
Important Tips
Listen—listen more than you talk
Never, never talk over the client-listen to
what he says
Control the flow
Always ask for the order - if you do nothing else ask for the order
Ask for referrals
