You’ll hear about the two Sandler Rules Nick is a fan of, and what you need to do to achieve sales success.
Whether you have been in sales for a couple of months or for several years, you’ll walk away with some principles that will improve your sales process, and any type of exchange: with prospects, with team members, and even in your personal life!
- Nick Strain doesn’t see himself as a born salesperson, but rather as someone who “fell” into selling.
- At the beginning of his journey at Halbert Hargrove Nick’s focus was on being a good financial advisor and wealth planner.
- Mark McGraw talks about how pretty much everybody has to go through a belief curve where their capabilities are greater than their beliefs.
- Nick and Mark discuss the key role processes have, especially when it comes to meetings and sales conversations.
- Nick has two Sandler rules he’s really fond of: “Don’t believe everything you think” and “You don’t have to like it, you just have to do it.”
- As Nick puts it: “To be successful, we just have to do little things that might not be the most fun and enjoyable, but are impactful and important for us to do.”
- When it comes to sales, Nick focuses on understanding how he can be helpful and add value to prospects and clients.
- Nick opens up on how the sales process at Halbert Hargrove has evolved and now relies on two steps.
- Sometimes, people with a technical background end up getting in their own way when having a call with a prospect.
- Nick takes back the curtain and talks about the different components of his sales process – including what he does to hold himself accountable.
- You don’t ever really complete a course… It's about practicing the art of selling.
