-
- Business
“You have to have a real conversation with customers, so it won't feel like you're trying to sell them anything, and they won't feel like they're being sold something either,” explains Tom Jackobs, Serial Entrepreneur. Something that all business owners fear is coming off as pushy to potential customers. Today, Tom shares his insight to help others learn the art of conversational selling.
Tom initially believed he wouldn’t be good at sales because he is introverted by nature. He later realized anyone could succeed at selling because it’s a learned skill just like anything else. If you focus on having honest conversations with potential clients by asking them the right questions, you can determine what they want and how you can help. With this strategy, you won’t feel pushy or “salesy,” but helpful as you fulfill the needs of others and grow your business.
If you want to sell your product or service, you have to understand what your customers want. Learn more about Tom’s essential sales questions, his entrepreneurial journey, and mastering the pre-discovery call.
