THE 22 IMMUTABLE LAWS OF SELLING’ book written by Andy Ferrari Norman is a wonderful book. I just re-read it and find that if you just use 3 ideas, your business will explode. Here are my top 10 favourite laws:
- Law of Facts Tell, Stories Sell – People buy stories, and if you can personalise your stories, the more they will buy. Never just provide facts without a story, for nobody remembers facts but we all remember stories for life
- Law of Products – if your products sucks, no great selling can make them sell. But great selling can make ordinary products sell. That's why it is so important to be good in selling
- Law of Mind Selling – the mind must buy first before the body can pay
- Law of Perception – selling is not a battle of products but a battle of perceptions. All truth is relative. The only reality you can be sure about is in your own perceptions. Seling is a manipulation of perceptions. If you cannot perceive it, you cannot buy it
- Law of Motivation – no matter how convinced people are, they need to be motivated to buy. The best form of motivation is self-motivation, i.e. the person is motivated by his self interest. Like he wants to buy your products because that will make him rich, not make you the salesperson rich
- Law of Survival – people need to survive, and survival could mean to make a bit more money, have more time to sleep, less worries or just having peace of mind. Until you make peopel feel they are surviving, all the other reasons are just luxuries
- Law of No Discounting – selling effects take place over an extended period of time. The long term effects are often the exact opposite of the short-term effects. Having a discounted sale now decreases business in the long term by educating customers not to buy at ‘regular’ prices. However, having 'more quantities at the same price' is often viewed as attractive and is always preferred over pure price discounting
- Law of Sacrifice – a salesperson must sacrifice something so that his customer will be moved and want to sacrifice his money to buy your product. Your sacrifice could be a free sample, demonstration or just giving him face
- Law of Admitting Weakness – when you admit a negative, the prospect will give you a positive. This is because no proof is needed for a negative statement. First admit a negative and then twist it into a positive. This is the most powerful selling law
- Law of Learning - the best way to learn selling is to sell to real people, especially difficult prospects. No amount of reading or classroom teaching can give you real learning. You have to learn on your own. Of course if you have guidance from a Sales Coach it will make your learning less painful.
