I will definitely try to utilize these tips when selling my services. I think the most important thing in the actual belief in your product or in my case services. If you believe your service or product is great then it is much easier to make others believe it is great as well. Great article with some fantastic points.

I've always had a technical focus on my work but now I want to turn it to a sales approach which I find exciting. I've always thought there was another way of becoming a good salesperson other than being aggressive. Perhaps a longer-term process where you show the customer you can be trusted to provide the best possible solution for him. That's how I have performed my technical activities. I thought I might not have what it takes to be a great salesperson, but after reading your article I am convinced that my personal approach is actually far more important than being aggressive and I can do it.

Please suggest for me some ways of selling research services because it looks to me that your advice works well on goods and not services. Please clarify, otherwise, this is a great article. Kind regards from Kampala - Uganda Thanks TODD,

I am working for filter queen right now and love it. I thought finally here is a real genuine product to sell. I mean it practicly sells itself. But your right, if you do not believe in the product niether will the customer no matter how good or bad the product really is. And yes, listening is key. I always tell the customer, ( all things set aside, in the end im here for you, what can I do help you.) or something to that effect. Alot of salesmen really need to understand that if you act greedy, and really do not care what the customer has to say and give them that glassy eyed look and try to push the sale, people can see that and you will never get the sale. Sales are not only just about selling ourself but also the very most important thing is to keep the customer happy at all times. Let them know that you will go to the ends of the earth to keep them happy. After all if it wasnt for the customer there would be no salesman.

This article was great. i love it. i reckon to be a great salesperson; your relationship must be huge. i mean; how wider your relationship is, the more sales you are willing to make. i used to work for a shipper. what i did was selling the import/export service to the customer. and that job was really tough. i couldnt make any sale in the first 2 months. because i had such a narrow relationship. based on your deep relationship with your clients. for the similar price; or even higher; they are willing to buy it from you but not the others. At the moment; i am working for a company who provides the home phone line and broadband line to the nation. and what i do is similar to what you did; knocking the door and try to convice people to switch their current provider to mine. thanks to your article; i feel more confident for my job :) thanks Todd Hi Todd.
