WALKER: SALES IS A LIFELONG JOURNEY OF LEARNING

“You have 50% control, you're the one y'all are negotiating the rules at the beginning of your sales call. If you're not negotiating rules at the beginning of your sales call, you're going by the prospect's rules, which often you don't know what they are.”

THERE ARE 2 THINGS YOUR PROSPECT HAS TO ANSWER FOR THEMSELVES

Before you can ever sell to a prospect, he/she has to answer these two questions.

The first question a prospect has to answer for themselves before any kind of sale is made is am I going to do something? The second question is what am I going to do? and most salespeople only focus on the second question. If you can help your prospect answer the first question, you will be much more successful. Walker breaks down how you can do this, so tune in to the latest episode of No BS Sales School.

NON-BS WORDS TO THE WISE

WALKER: MOVE FORWARD, TAKE RESPONSIBILITY

“Before you serve on tell them how you're going to fix the problems, you need to figure out why in the world, would they change what they're doing now? Is it really that bad? Because chances are, it's not that bad. It's really not, they'd have to prove to you why it's bad.”

WALKER: REASON FOR CHANGE

“The only reason somebody would make a change a hard change is that they have a personal, compelling reason why they have to do something.”

SELLING IS BEYOND THE REALM OF EMOTIONS

In this episode, Walker explains why you should never let your emotions get the best of you when you are selling. Emotions will only lead you to react to a situation instead of thinking over it, and nothing’s better in emphasizing this than a good’ol story from Walker’s own experience. Find out more in this latest episode of No BS Sales School.

NON-BS WORDS TO THE WISE

WALKER: EMOTIONS HAVE NO PLACE

“If you're the salesperson, if you're the seller in the situation, emotion has no place there.”

WALKER: IT’S YES OR NO. IF IT’S NO, SHUT IT

“Sales is about getting YESes and NOs. Does this person trust me enough to give me money to make a problem go away? If not, then we need to call it a NO sooner rather than later.”

WALKER: NOBODY WANTS A NEEDY SELLER

“If you appear needy. People will flee from you. Nobody wants to deal with a needy salesperson.”

NON-BS WORDS TO THE WISE

WALKER: Staying in peak physical condition

“It requires me to do a bunch of sh*t I don't want to do like, first and foremost, the discipline to stay in top physical condition. That mindset that it creates is the same mindset that pushes and frames everything else I do during the day.”

WALKER: Don’t be afraid to make mistakes

“If you're not making mistakes, it means you're not trying anything new, it means that you're not progressing. You're going to make mistakes. That's a good thing. What's bad is when you won't make a mistake, because you're afraid of making mistakes, and therefore you won't take any action.”

How does Instant Gratification play out in sales? Walker answers this question by explaining that either a YES or a NO can give you instant gratification after every meeting or sales call. Walker discusses further that a NO is desirable depending on what you decided as your expected outcome for every meeting, so always set yourself to get a YES or a NO. Learn more by tuning in to this latest episode of No BS Sales School.

NON-BS WORDS TO THE WISE

WALKER: How a NO can give you instant gratification

“Sure you can get a YES, but also getting a NO at the first meeting, or the second meeting is a sh*t ton better than getting one at the sixth meeting, or never getting a return phone call.”

WALKER: Practice to be a better decision maker

“NO is my second favorite word I hear all the time. No means here we should celebrate NOs you don't have to waste your time there anymore. All this crap about salespeople having to be persistent and hunt people down till they get a YES, that's terrible advice.”
