In a sales, every phone call, every meeting, every single meeting is your opportunity to move your prospect down the field and one step closer to closing. Doesn’t matter how small of a step forward you take, just keep pushing towards that goal. And don’t waste time talking about your weekend or things that have nothing to do with the sale, then your in “out of bounds” territory and it’s hard to remain in control.
-
Work as many deals into the “red zone” as possible and have 3-4 deals in there for every one you want to close (know your closing ratios over time to adjust this up or down). Eventually things will start to close. Make sure your constantly bringing new opportunities on the field so there’s a consistent flow of activity and you never have a dip in your productivity. Now go kill it this week and make some money!
