41: John Curry | The Foundation for Successful Sales You Might Be Missing
A successful salesperson is slick and manipulative, right? No deal, says my guest this week, financial advisor and master salesman John Curry. During his 40 years in the field, John has refined the real foundation of sales.
It’s quite simple: identify what you client needs, then help them get it… even if that sometimes means sending them to a competitor.
Your role should be more like a trusted advisor than a smooth operator. Give your prospect enough information to make an educated decision. Take an open and honest approach. Be firm - even indifferent - when you need to be.
Adopt this philosophy and the money will follow, says John.
Listen in to find out…
- An easy technique for taking pressure off a customer
- What you’re really selling - it’s not your product or service
- The Surgeon’s Posture Secret for boosting your sales numbers
- Why giving your prospect permission to say “no” often leads to “yes”
- A technique for being at peace with rejection - it boosts your confidence too
