Effortless Sales using WIN Way

Note: The next Successful Selling Strategies is on 4 July 2014 Friday 9 am to 12.30 pm. Details of course is at here
The opposite of Effortless Sales is Stressful Sales.  Author of 'The Power of Now' Eckart Tolle says, "Stress is caused by being 'here' but wanting to be 'there', or being in the present but wanting to be in the future.  It is a split that tears you apart inside. 

 Indeed many salespeople are doing stressful sales, for when they are in front of a prospect, their mind is never with the prospect.  Instead their minds are thinking about how to close the prospect, how to make him say yes quickly, how to not mention any weakness the product has, and how to make time for the next appointment.  Stressful Salespeople often end up not achieving any sales at all, but they are very busy making proposals.  We called such salespeople Quotespeople. 

There are 5 ways you can use WIN - What's Important Now - in your sales:
  1. Always listen to what the prospect has to say, never interrupt.  Do active listening, not evaluative listening, where you listen to respond
  2. Listen beyond the content of what is spoken, Listen to the Context of what is uttered.  Like listen between the lines, watch out for the change in tonality, pace, pitch, volume and quality of speech.  For example, a slowdown in speech indicates thinking, while a higher pitch signifies anxiety
  3. Ask Questions that Probe into the Prospect's situation.  Do not take anything for granted. 
  4. Assume Nothing. If you want to have some assumptions so that you don't start from scratch, verify your assumption
  5. Being Aware and Remember that Awareness.  It is a way to control our wandering mind.  Being aware is beyond noting and knowing. Awareness is about being conscious, having knowledge of something, being vigilant, bearing in mind, being alert and ultimately being present. 
In short, the WIN Way is simply to BE HERE and NOW.  That's the way to win more sales effortlessly.  Try this!

Kindness as a Way of Life: How Kindness can Reward You 6 Times Over

Kindness as a Way of Life by Andy Ng Kindness is a universal language that transcends cultural boundaries, enriches human connections, and has the power to transform lives. It goes beyond mere acts of charity or random good deeds. To me, kindness, when practiced as a way of life, becomes a profound philosophy that can shape our interactions with others, the world around us, and even our own well-being. In this article, we will explore the multifaceted aspects of kindness as a way of life, touching on non-violent communication, the limitations of traditional charity, the potential harms of helping, the deliberate cultivation of kindness, and the incredible rewards it brings. 1.       Non-Violent Communication Non-violent communication (NVC) is a key component of practicing kindness as a way of life.

New Age Mobile Numerology

Many people look at 'mobile number change luck' with skepticism, they say, how can just one simple mobile number change create so many changes in a person's life?   Also, the mobile numbers are given to us by random by the telcos, how can our fate be assigned by the telcos at random? Besides, isn't it true that our lives and fates are determined by birth and what we do, how can a small mobile number, which is a modern invention, have any effect?  How about people in the past without mobile numbers?  You mean they don't have a life without mobile numbers, right? One more thing: you cannot just change your mobile number and expect your life to change. If this is so, wouldn't everybody be rich just by changing their mobile numbers? Finally, isn't this kind of fortune-telling thing more of psychology and blind faith than science?   If so, how can we trust anything that is not proven and not science? Today let's resolve all these doubts and I welcome your co

If Not You, Who Else?

I learnt this very powerful 5-word phrase from Singapore's highest ever box-office movie ever: "Ah Boys to Men II". In one scene, the recruits were about to start their 3-day field camp.  Their Officer-in-Command asked them, "Before we moved out, anybody not feeling well?"  All the soldiers replied loudly, "No Sir!!!" "Gentlemen", continued the Officer, "Every time the training gets tougher, one thought comes to your mind, 'Why Must I Serve National Service?' "My answer to you is, 'If Not You, Then Who Else?'" Wow!  What a powerful phrase!  If Not You, Who Else may mean: You are the most suitable person, and we can't find anyone better than you.  This is appreciation at the highest level How can you push this responsibility to someone else? I am making a request to you specifically, please don't reject my request Can you find me another person more suitable than you? Please refer me anot
