Selling Skills That Matter Most

Tweet

We are so bombarded by technology and clutter it is difficult to remain attentive to little things. There is simply not enough attention paid to the little things. It is interesting to find how many people are so into themselves and so on interested in the world around them. Self-centered mannerisms meet terminate people need to be more responsive to the world around them. Cell phones, text messaging and e-mail or all hindrances to making us pay attention to the world around us. Selling is not a myopic nor self-centered profession individuals need to pay attention to the customer before they pay attention to themselves. Stop being selfish and start becoming more attentive to things around you. Here are some examples of myopic behavior:

 

  • Spelling someone’s name incorrectly
  • Pronouncing the persons name incorrectly
  • Arriving late to a meeting
  • Meeting a client with a blue light in your ear
  • Not offering salutations were thanks
  • Not sending thank you letters to your clients
  • Not offering mentorship to others in need
