Dealing With False Starts
Everyone can think of a scenario where you thought the conversation was going one way, only to find that the momentum stops.
Mike & Mike discuss their experience with false starts, how to avoid them, and why they occur. Whether it was with a customer, with your child, with your spouse. This is a common occurrence in sales. We think we have an opportunity, we think we are moving forward with a deal, we think we are ready to go to market, then something changes. You don’t get a call, someone misses a meeting, a contact becomes non-responsive.
How do you get customers to re-engage?
False starts and stalls are just part of the process. The approach you take to address this, re-engage with the customer, and regain momentum, is what will seperate you from the pack as a sales rep.
On a previous podcast we discuss the importance of Account Planning - you can hear our perspective & approach on that episode.
