As a sales associate of an optical clinic, my number one tip is don't over sell your product. You should always include the the downside or the drawback of your product. It may seem odd but that's how you gain the trust of the customer by making them feel how honest you are. And of course, always listen to their needs and avoid making arguments with them. You should know that your role is to always find solution. And if you think you can't help them, tell them honestly. They'll pretty sure to ask you again

[@labritnikki1279]

Yes great elaboration on this topic!! Ppl like myself appreciate your opinion!

[@kylow935]

Yeah. Perfectly said man

[@CD-be5pb]

[@louc7174]

[@maxyschmaxy]

Rapport establishment can be done in many ways. Downselling your product works, but it also introduces another variable to the customer (i.e. another point of contention) and increases confusion.

[@richardnorton2792]

Great stuff. Been in direct sales for over 40 years. I love the doctor analogy. I teach all of our sales people not to sell, convince, or be pushy. Be sincere, be genuine, be yourself, and most of all HELP your prospects.

[@ConnorGoodwin-f2t]

Yup, the key is to be genuinely authentic and personable in your pitch. Don't put any pressure on your prospects and give them comfort that the most important thing is them and not your sale/money you make from it. People can sniff the annoying pyramid scheme sales guys right away.

Sales is not about selling what ever you have to anyone who comes across. It's really about get to know as many people as you can who has the problem you're solving. Also, see if the person really wants the solution because referral is the biggest sales technique ever.

[@AzharKhan-py9rt]

Only honest sales people can follow Marc's methods. This is not for the sales people who whenever they look at a person they see a wallet. Its not for those that are out there to only rip people off and to make economic value only for themselves. You need genuine honesty for this.

[@desetmedia]

I agree Azhar. Marc's way works if you are owner operator and selling your products and services to a business owner directly. When you work for a company as a sales rep, you are micromanaged, facing top KPI's, quotas,minimum number of cold calls, minimum number of face to face meetings, You don't have freedom to use this system. You are stuck with what and how they want you to do it. If you deviate from the process or you back off the clients who you see don't qualify ...you lose your job. No one can dictate the tempo how you lead the dialogue with a client but the rest of it...all micromanaged.

I watched several of your videos last week when I was preparing to meet with a prospect. I used the things that you suggested using feedback loops, using questions to determine what was important to the customer, and showing the benefits, and successfully signed up a new customer. During the conversation, it was the most confident and most comfortable I have ever been dealing with a prospect. I felt in no way uncomfortable or intimidated and the whole conversation showed we were a great fit for what he was looking for. Thank you Marc, for the first time since I started I actually look forward to conversations with prospects, rather than dread them. :-)

Keeping the person involved with your questions. Have them speak 80% of the time. You, the seller, only speak 20% of the time.

[@deepakthestunner]

Carlos I. Nunez Jr what is your work

[@billybbob18]

I have to do a ton of explaining in my industry. I repair and sell HVAC equipment. I find myself speaking 50 percent of the time at minimum. Especially when the customer has a legitimate need to assess the cost of the repair vs the age of the piece of equipment. Often times, a new one is best in the long run. When I sell my customers something, it's because they actually need it. This is something that I will push a customer heavily for. Especially is safety becomes an issue. I'm 9/10 when I push a sale from a safety stand point. I like the philosophy of "becoming the customer". I don't get mad when a customer decides to work on their own equipment. There are so many ways to mess it up that we end up getting called to that unit for diagnosis and repair. That's just the way we have to be. In the HVAC industry, traditional sales mores do not apply. Hacks and crooks get called out quickly as well. Just be real.

[@siinpulsomusic]

Very true. I need to learn this

[@BrendaTrott]

@@billybbob18 One way to add more customer talk time is to ask them questions..What have you tried so far? What is your priority..this or that? It really does wonders to bring down the wall when they speak.

[@elcid9054]

How

[@ryanbittinger2226]

I disagree with the rule of no pressure in sales to an extent. I’ve learned there is positive pressure and using it took me from 6 sold units to 16 in one month and I have since adapted it to every sales so long as its beneficial to both the customer and I. For those wanting an example I’ll tell you one of my Toyota Highlander deals I did back in the car business. I had a woman down to the pencil on the car deal but the monthly payments were sitting at $682 per month which was too high for her. Now I knew she loved the car (her eyes physically lit up when she saw it and got bigger after she drove it), she was a ready buyer, and had no problem affording the payments. It wasn’t the money she was worried about it was the commitment. Of course my managers told me to show her different cars like a Camry or Corolla bring down the monthly payments. She wanted the Highlander and anything else would have been a bad buy and a bad judgement move on my part. I told her what they told me then proceeded to tell her of a boat I sold to another guy years ago. He too didn’t like the monthly payments and wanted to see cheaper models. I knew it was bad then but didn’t know any better than to sell what he thought he wanted. He ended up hating the boat, me, and the dealership. All because it wasn’t what he really wanted, just something he settled for. I told her to get anything else would be to settle and you’ll hate me for as long as you own it. I told her I couldn’t sell her something she didn’t want and gave her the option to work with my buddy instead. She ended up signing the deal and during the next year she would text me thanking me for pushing her to buy the Highlander and had since sent me more customers. Point is...not all pressure is bad, it just depends on how and why you use it

[@SermonsSubtitled]

"the monthly payments were sitting at $682 per month which was too high for her." - "she had no problem affording the payments. It wasn’t the money she was worried about it was the commitment." What made you so sure about that in the moment?

[@TheDisaffectedMan]

I feel that this is not an example of pressure but an example of empathy, so basically... standing in ones shoe's knowing that most people like what they like. also reassuring her confidence was also key. just have to be human and that's what I believe you did here.

[@ryanbittinger2226]

Linda B it’s because during the presentation her eyes lit up left and right. Once she got behind the wheel for the test drive she didn’t need me to sell anymore, she wanted it. Because of this I knew it was her concern with commitment. Some people, no matter how much they want something, are hard to close you just have to put the positive pressure

[@ryanbittinger2226]

Red Stafstrom this is true, and the car business is a retail business, just on a different scale. Before moving to big ticket items I started in basic retail and refined what I learned to match the level in which I’m selling

[@ryanbittinger2226]

Red Stafstrom and I did read SPIN, good book. For those looking to advance their skills pick up a few books that aren’t directly related to sales but offer info that can help. I started with Tom Hopkins Master the Art of Selling then moved on Grant Cardone, etc. but two books that helped me in closing are Micheal Wheelers The Art of Negotiation and The Book on Negotiating Real Estate Deals

[@blanedoe4683]

He’s on point in this video, The empathy and integrity go along way. Scratch out the word “sales” and be the Shepard and educate them. Be honest, when clients trust you they will use you for everything and introduce you to their family and friends. Be authentic! It’s simple!

[@michaelthomas196]

Behave as a doctor is a great way of looking at it. It is so different than most people think, yet it will build rapport with the customer, and help the rest of the conversation easier, because the clients walls will come down more,and they will make it easier to open up to you, as well as engage even more into the conversation. Great stuff

I’m tryna Learn this door to door stuff right now because In about 2 hours my friend expects me to start going round my neighbourhood and sell a product a friend gave me, I am a very awkward person I was a very sheltered child so I don’t have good social skills (hens why I’m watching this video) the only commission I’m getting for this is if I sell the product for him meaning I will only make a profit if I sell the product for my friend. I don’t even know where to start when it comes to this whole door knocking buisness and all these videos talk about are just mostly about the mental game, I want to know the basic idea of what ur supposed to do when if comes to this whole thing, I’m not trying to go up to a door and the first person I knock instantly shuts me down and I have no way of explaining what my product is. I don’t even want to knock doors a today because I am so inexperienced and the situation I am in is near impossible to even get some to consider buying, instead I’ll probably just get slot of people annoyed at me for knocking there door during a pandemic like this, when I see pro sales people going door to door most of them get like 1 buyer ever 50 doors they knock and there a doing this as a whole job meaning there good at it, meanwhile I’m literally a sketchy looking kid going out with a sketchy looking box of a product and expecting people to buy it straight from my hands without any proof of it working or proof of its value. I’m probably just gonna take the box with me and walk as far as possible from my friends hours and chill there for like 2 hours, then say I knocked around the neighbourhood and nobody bought from me. I hate to lie but it’s better then telling him I gave up he’s one of those friends that expect you to live up to every expectation or else Ur a fake friend to him. I’m going to list this product on kijiji that’s my best bet at selling anything at all right now.

[@bitchimfirst]

basherblast how did it go?

[@jenniedugan3308]

Top take-aways for me: think like a doctor, and don't be pushy because it triggers a reaction, and that the top salespeople sift through the no-match prospects quickly to spend time with the right prospects. This was really good. I look for good videos and I read sales books and articles routinely, and I'd rank this one pretty high ---high enough that I subscribed to more of his videos. I like the softer approach, and it works for me, and this was share-worthy.

In my learning frameworks class in college, we read from a book called 7 Habits of Highly Effective College Students. Habit 5 was about listening empathetically.

I think this is a very good way to summarize what he is saying about thinking and behaving like a doctor.

[@aaronkody6812]

Your advice is both ethical and spot-on accurate. I Like #1- Drop the Enthusiasm (Be genuine, no fake) #5 Get in their shoes (see from their perspective, thru their eyes) #9 Dig deep into their challenges (what’s most important to them & #10 Tying those challenges into value (What That Means it Them) or WIIFM’s and #13 Feedback Loops (Keeping them engaged And in the convo thru small questions/commitments, at least every 60-seconds. Ex. “Does that make sense/work for you?” “Those are great reasons, aren’t they?” “Is that ok?” “It is a great feature, isn’t it?” . Awesome stuff Marc!

[@businessaccount3177]

The drop the enthusiasm thing doesnt really make sense tho. you want to be actually passionate about what you're pitching and be enthusiastic about it to get them on board and not just appear apathetic and bored because it makes them think that theyre getting a good deal and it gives the conversation less of a purely transactional vibe but also gives them the feeling that you're a nice and friendly guy who is trustworthy. It's like the strategy that better call saul uses, he doesn't use big words and try to appear monotone and apathetic like hes pitching something he doesn't give a fuck about when he proposes something hes excited and energetic, hence why his clients trust him so much and think about him as a friend, because he like asks about how their kids are doing and stuff

[@businessaccount3177]

You dont want to be fake enthusiastic to them, you want to be genuinely passionate about what you're pitching

[@skylermusser2272]

I currently work at bath and body works and am quitting to pursue a career in commission sales, and I couldn’t agree more with the first point. I’ve gotten more sales by not being overwhelmingly excited than I can even think of anymore and sadly bath and body wants to have everyone berated right at the door! My managers and other people ask me how I sell so well and I just simply say “I don’t overwhelm them right when they walk in.”

[@SouthwestWinning]

This is really great advice, I love this. To all my fellow salespeople remember the sales pyramid and the importance of getting permission to pitch. 1st you sell yourself by making jokes and hearing what your prospect says, 2nd you proceed to speak about your company what they’re process is and why they do what they do, what makes them different and why you’re the best in the industry. 3rd step is actually pitching your product, you’ll know it’s time to pitch when the prospect ask you how your product works. 4th step is pricing, during your pitch they will eventually ask how much said product costs, when you answer just tell them the price and pause. First one to speak loses. If they’re interested ready to buy and actually have the funds for your product they normally ask “ok so what are the next steps”. If they answer with an objection that’s also good because you can now try to overcome the REAL objection, that or they simply just aren’t the right prospect for your product.

[@caponeyboy]

If you feel it, say it. It’s cutting to the chase, and as I apply it to some past experiences, I see it saving time, as well as being much more professional than “pushing through it” hoping that the feeling is wrong,

[@clarrismaeomampo7325]

I think it will be applicable in Telemarketing or Follow Up Clients thru Call. When I tried to made a call, and the person told me that "shes busy" call me after a little bit (without time) or keep on telling me that "Im just in a meeting and let me call you back" I will.be straight to the point asking them " hi sir, are we still interested to my this property?" And mostly they will say the final answer.. in that way you can avoid the reality that you will waste your time for not interested person, and they cant feel that you send them a spam messages. Your time and their time is important. So sometimes we need to be straight to the point in a nice way. A real buyers will provide time and efforts for their queries. If they cant provide time to.talk. no doubt they even dont have time to purchase. Lol

[@codefive89]

Explanation of video was very valuable because when I am the customer these are the actual feelings that I encounter when I am speaking with a consultant, I try to pull back because the consultant has not built up a rapport and somewhere in the discovery phase of the conversation I have became either bored due to the questions and just want to get to the point….because the consultant really did not do the connect to ask me what made me interested in the initial response…which would have encouraged me to become engaged and then I would have been the one excited instead of the sales consultant. So what I have learned from this video is to connect and sound natural but get that rapport at the beginning to build the trust for the qualifying process so that the other person don’t feel that they are being sold. I enjoyed this video…thank you so much for explaining the psychology behind this process.

I agree with all concepts except one. This guy is amazing and breaks it down for everyone very nicely. This video is very valuable and should be memorized and implemented in your daily sales activities. The one rule that I differ on is pressure tactics. This is very broad term. There should be a line in the sand so a sale doesn’t drag for months or years. You can still do this without being dishonest or making your buyer feel uncomfortable or pressured.

[@JDRyan-xv9il]

You can create urgency by showing them the draw backs and costs of not acting now. You do that through asking great questions. One line that was powerful for me. Can we atleast agreed that these issues can no longer be ignored.

[@vash8765]

All of them actually but i like the most is to think like a doctor and not as a salesperson. It says everything there, when ur mindset is like a doctor you can easily point out the needs and challenges of your customers. And also the Feedback loops it is maintaining or keeping up the interest of the customer or buyer throughout your conversation. Thank you sir for sharing us your wisdom and knowledge in selling. I also appreciate the subtitles on your videos it is easier for us to understand everything you say. Godbless!

[@shawnalei]

There’s a fine balance between enthusiasm and authenticity. I always tell my real estate agents not to over do it but also don’t be a flat line.

[@iamluckyjames_]

I learned a lot here, but here's one that stands out for me: Don't just pitch right in. First try to understand, where they are at, the problems they have, and what solutions they look forward to. After this, you can then know if your solution would be a good fit for them. I found this really helpful. Thank you very much for sharing.

[@juanruiz5183]

This was good stuff, started using some of your tips on Linkedin, and also minimized the old fashion cold calling. Also started looking at publishing an ebook. Learning to listen is the key to a secure sell. Remember the best sales person is a doctor. As someone else said, listen like one. Awesome Job!!!.

[@WIFEABILITY]

This is a Masterclass! Thank you so much. I just subscribed. I’ve had it in my watch later playlist for a while. I am glad I took the time to listen to it today.

[@travwayfar]

Seeing it from a doctor's point of view really hit! Thank you for this video. Sold me 😉

I’ve recently gone into the sales industry I just moved to Vegas and I sell a VR experience I really don’t have any experience in direct sales at all it’s a little scary but exciting at the same time these videos will definitely help in the process of becoming a good salesmen ❤

[@Eldaahmarize2657]

Good thing I’ve bump into this video. I’ve been searching for selling techniques and this one really speak through. Simple and clear. Thanks for this!

[@FERENDINSoftwareEngineering]

The tonality of your voice makes a huge lot in and conversation. Sales is conversation and human interaction. Regardless if you are the seller or the one buying anything, being treated with respect and having a good conversation is key. The tone of your voice makes the same word mean 5 different things.

[@coachpaul_main]

I got great value from watching this video. Thanks Marc! My two favorite points were "Creating value through the questions we ask" (very practical) and "WIIFM"... Awesome stuff!

[@code.africa]

George, typically a solution based on what I'm hearing the challenges are, typically a solution for what we've discussed can range anywhere from 100,000 to 500,000. Where on that spectrum could you see yourself fitting? This is my favorite part. Am very happy

[@buckybarz3779]

He’s so right. The enthusiasm portion I’ve done too many times on accident. 🙈

[@AirsickHydra]

This is really interesting, i'm actually an Osteopath currently looking to shift into sales and having a hard time convincing companies that my skillset is better suited to their industry than someone with years experience in sales!

[@joeellis4907]

Very good!!! Also we must remember we cannot close everyone. It's just the way it is. So don't let that stop you from continuing on to the neXt presentation. Analyze why the presentation didn't close and then move on. Many sales people let this bother them and do not allow themselves to let it go - move on to the neXt presentation. In many cases it's not the salesperson. If prospects are not buying, guess what, they're not buying. Move on. It's a numbers game!!!!

[@johnnelson2959]

Well said Joe, I used to beat myself up thinking I was just doing something wrong in how I was presenting, but really if your prospects are in some way unqualified (Wrong demographic, not enough disposable income, showing a product in the wrong venue or environment) there are so many reasons for a "No" and you're dead right, don't take it personally just move on through the masses looking for those buyers who want what you're offering.

[@Zyenthillias]

This is EXACTLY what I needed to hear this morning!! Thank you so much!!! Confidence boosted!!

[@DesignYourGiftBonitaSprings]

I'm trying to sell our handmade beaded jewelry online. I believe videos could help and I appreciate the "No enthusiasm:" concept and finding a way to "ask and solve a problem" when there is no physical contact. I look forward to watching more of your videos and trying out new ways to promote our jewelry.

[@Faustian_Bargain_Bin]

Thanks so much for this! I’m a medical student and a mentor recommended using sales techniques to work with patients and make shared decisions that get the patient where they want to be with their health. I subscribed and can’t wait to go through the rest of your vids

[@rakhisaxena4352]

Haven't seen such an insightful video earlier Marc, Most of the sales techniques have always been making me push myself to not to be myself and "ACT" in certain way, the ease you have put in is for me the most important one, I will use "THE ENGAGE" technique the most during my upcoming meeting and surely will share the feedback I get here!! Thanks a TON again!!

[@sous9077]

I'd like to think of the point 9 of digging deeper into your customer's challenges, as a 5WHY method which is a very easy and efficient method of asking Q1->Answer1--> WH1--> Answer2-->Why2... I've been always using this tip and it works wonders. And thank you Marc for the incredible videos

[@James-nq9gv]

Keeping the client involved with mini close questions is great. Can’t wait to put this knowledge to the test. I always said psychology is a huge part of sales but I’ve never studied into it. I plan to do more of that now, and this was an amazing start. Thank you for your video.

[@tas4u93]

Most people love to talk about themselves. Its not a pride thing its just not often the average person gets asked personal insightful questions. Whens the last time anyone asked your favorite foods?? Movies? Etc.

[@keithsabi6893]

To be honest , this man is valuable. He is very honest and I could discern that from my spirit .. thanks .. your video is very informative.

[@picklepirate]

You are one of the only KZbinrs to put the video in the description. This is so important to loving your channel and information.

[@jotooslo6056]

Haylie R. Wilson was it due to the time saving or why do you say that?

[@IOSALive]

Sales Insights Lab, great content you deserve more views

[@RMusicent]

I came across this guy and listened and jotted down strong points to practice!I sell shoes and I’m only been in the game for a couple months and I’m climbing the later but could always get better.This helped tremendously!Thank you so much

[@hyper-focus1693]

Wow. Content with this kind of quality is absolutely rare. I can fee the experience radiating from you. Thank you for this valuable content.

[@amberlyne331]

This is literally the most incredible advice I've heard on this subject. I saved this, and I'm just gonna watch it over and over until I memorize it. Lol Youre helping thousands of people make a lot of money. Thank you!!!

[@visionaryrealm9282]

I believe a little pressure and aggressiveness helps to make sales. Not everyone perceives aggressiveness as being money hungry or desperate, it just shows that you truly believe in your product and that your confident, and customers take notice to that, and they'll end up buying...great tips

[@jesse_sweed]

Simple, straight forward, and powerful advice for sales anf human interaction in general. Thank you!

[@julianscott9350]

Addressing budget earlier in the sales process. Even if they don’t give you a direct answer, you can judge the reaction/non verbal cues to the range you present as “that seems about right” or “no way we can afford that!”

[@blake6897]

Exactly the kind of stuff I learned in my professional training. Its nice to have those issues reinforced, thank you

[@jasoncuray]

Ohhhh this is like the realest, no faking, genuine approach on sales. I can’t imagine online and offline MLM people actually applying this. They will fail #1 immediately lol.

[@jasonrobertson5577]

As a sales and marketing grad student, this video was very helpful. Thank you!

[@husamnabeel2073]

This is the most important video in sales ever

[@rex-d]

Brilliantly explained! Selling maybe one most important skills you ever learn in your life.

[@jaredyoung5298]

My favorite point was #6. Creating value through my questions! Great job

[@kingaseltine]

I believe you can be enthusiastic if that’s who you are. It has to be natural for sure and part of who you are. So, if that’s the real genuine you then be authentic! It wins every time!

[@bariou06]

great content! My take-aways are dig deeper into their challenges, make it a two-way conversation and feedback loops. The latter is so rarely used and can save precious time on both sides realizing whether there is a good fit or not.

[@lieslstoffberg6073]

Unlike other video's discussing the same topic yours start at 44s whereas other speakers talk and talk and talk. Great stuff keep it up

[@brittneylowry3666]

This was so helpful and easy to understand and follow. Can’t wait to share with my team!

[@ro-bert7301]

I really like what you said about , its not about you, its about them. most sales people bore me to tears with their personal stories. 👍🏼

[@ControversialPaul]

Extremely valuable! #13 really made everything make sense. You're closing the sale with a feedback loop so that at the end it adds up to one big sale!

[@terris-njw]

Your videos are seriously insane value. Everything you say make so much more sense than those fake gurus out there. I'm only 2 videos in and I'm about to start bingeing. Thank you so much!

[@justjames1111]

Brilliant video Marc, it brought back so many of the things I've heard in the past and started to do. Now I'm back in sales, I'm loving the challenge and I'm recalling so much, and videos like yours are fantastic. Good man.

[@Amarieztrading]

You are amazing! straight to the point no rambling very helpful information. Thank you so much😊
