299 Forget About Trying to Sell; Focus on How You Make People Feel
The Art of Sales with Art Sobczak
A famous saying is that "You can't NOT communicate." Meaning that everything you do or say that is observed by someone, whether it is intentional or not, is creating feelings in others. We can be much more successful in sales, and in life, by focusing on how we can make more of those feelings positive. Art shares contrasting examples from a recent vacation to Cabo San Lucas where he experienced both great and negative feelings from simple interactions. You'll also hear simple things you can do right now to make the lives of others better every day, including yours in the process.

298 How to Respond to the Too Early "What's it cost?" Question
The Art of Sales with Art Sobczak
Many prospects don't want to abide by our timetable. They want to know what the price is, before we are ready to go there. How you respond makes the difference between annoying them, giving them a price that seems unreasonable for them, OR helping them realize you need to learn more about what they really want so that you can give them the best price. In this episode you'll hear several examples of exactly what to say to get them talking, so you can present price in a way where you have developed value way higher than the price.

295 "Just be yourself" is Some of the Worst Sales Advice Ever
The Art of Sales with Art Sobczak
When a sales rep is told, "Just be yourself" on calls, instead of being totally prepared, that is some of the worst advice ever. Unless the rep is a skilled, knowledgeable, experienced, prepared person already, just being themself can result in disaster. Maybe you've been there. Art breaks this down, and discusses what we DO need to do in order to become the best version of ourselves, who is authentic, smooth, and connects at a human level. Also he references the newly revised site, with lots of valuable training resources, both free and premium, http://smartcalling.com.
