5 Ways to Create the Conditions for Customers for Buy

As we know, a good salesperson does not sell, he merely creates the conditions for customers to buy by themselves. As what Sun Tzu said in the Art of War, the highest strategy is to win the war without fighting, so in sales the highest strategy is to sell without selling. There are 5 ways to create the conditions for customers to buy:

Sell then Tell. Before you tell people anything, sell them the idea why they must listen to you. You can do this with the phrase, "Why I am telling you all these?..."
Pull then Push. You must attract people to what you are selling and if they still don't bulge, you have to push them to make a decision. Attract people to buy not with what you sell, but with the benefits of what they will gain and the loss they will make if they don't buy. Pushing is not to push people to buy so that you can close the sale but to push them to achieve what they want to achieve. People want to achieve different things, be it save money, earn money, have peace of mind, have their say and most importantly, to be validated
Customize and you'll earn a customer. Don't just sell what you have, customize your product and services package to suit their needs and wants. If you cannot change what you sell, change the perception of what you sell. For example, we often tell people that we are not in the training business, we are in the business of changing people. Even if they see no need to learn anything, they see a need to make a change, and that training course is a catalyst.
Serve, not Sell. Service to others is the highest purpose, so serve their needs and you will never have to sell in your life
Ask Questions, not Make Statements. Questions make the sale, because people buy base on their own reasons, and we ask questions to draw out the reason for them to buy. That's why we never sell, we merely help them to buy. Read here for the question techniques.

If Not You, Who Else?

I learnt this very powerful 5-word phrase from Singapore's highest ever box-office movie ever: "Ah Boys to Men II". In one scene, the recruits were about to start their 3-day field camp. Their Officer-in-Command asked them, "Before we moved out, anybody not feeling well?" All the soldiers replied loudly, "No Sir!!!" "Gentlemen", continued the Officer, "Every time the training gets tougher, one thought comes to your mind, 'Why Must I Serve National Service?' "My answer to you is, 'If Not You, Then Who Else?'" Wow! What a powerful phrase! If Not You, Who Else may mean: You are the most suitable person, and we can't find anyone better than you. This is appreciation at the highest level How can you push this responsibility to someone else? I am making a request to you specifically, please don't reject my request Can you find me another person more suitable than you? Please refer me anot

Kindness as a Way of Life: How Kindness can Reward You 6 Times Over

Kindness as a Way of Life by Andy Ng Kindness is a universal language that transcends cultural boundaries, enriches human connections, and has the power to transform lives. It goes beyond mere acts of charity or random good deeds. To me, kindness, when practiced as a way of life, becomes a profound philosophy that can shape our interactions with others, the world around us, and even our own well-being. In this article, we will explore the multifaceted aspects of kindness as a way of life, touching on non-violent communication, the limitations of traditional charity, the potential harms of helping, the deliberate cultivation of kindness, and the incredible rewards it brings. 1.

New Age Mobile Numerology

Many people look at 'mobile number change luck' with skepticism, they say, how can just one simple mobile number change create so many changes in a person's life? Also, the mobile numbers are given to us by random by the telcos, how can our fate be assigned by the telcos at random? Besides, isn't it true that our lives and fates are determined by birth and what we do, how can a small mobile number, which is a modern invention, have any effect? How about people in the past without mobile numbers? You mean they don't have a life without mobile numbers, right? One more thing: you cannot just change your mobile number and expect your life to change. If this is so, wouldn't everybody be rich just by changing their mobile numbers? Finally, isn't this kind of fortune-telling thing more of psychology and blind faith than science? If so, how can we trust anything that is not proven and not science? Today let's resolve all these doubts and I welcome your co
