by thesaleswhisperer on Sun

Bang Out More Phone Calls to Grow Sales. (Really?)

by thesaleswhisperer August 31, 2009 Marketing Help

The Great Lies of Sales & Marketing “Pick up the phone and bang out more calls today than you did yesterday.” ~~~ If you can still make money banging out calls then knock yourself out. But in my 14+ years of selling I am seeing this form of client development really diminish as an effective use of a sales person’s time.

Besides, unsolicited phone calls performed by product-pushing, commission-hungry sales people is just plain annoying! Today, when you hear a “rah-rah” guy on stage getting you pumped up to pound out phone calls, get thick skin, ignore rejection, “they’re not saying no to you but to your offering,” picture this: your son’s 7th grade flag football team lining up against the Dallas Cowboys with a great attitude [...]

What I finally end up telling them is that the source of the best free sales training on the planet is their kids. You can both learn from them and practice on them. “How so?” I can hear you asking. You can learn from them in their consistency and persistence when they want something. Now I’m not saying to go begging for stuff but kids know how to position [...]
