Secrets of Question Based Selling: How the Most Powerful Tool in Business Can Double Your Sales Results


From Booklist
Freese has uncovered a new twist on an old adage. If you walk in your customer's shoes, you'll be better able to sell to him or her. Using that philosophy, he wields the power of questions, from introductory telephone gambits to the final presentation, inserting a query into virtually every contact with the prospect. Instead of the same old blah, blah, blah at the beginning of a conversation, he recommends a simple "credentialing"--name, company, product, service--that ends with "Did I catch you at a bad time?" The process gets better. There's a detailed description of every stage--curiosity, credibility, needs development, present solutions, and commitment. There are sample dialogues, what-ifs, and rules to remember. Most of all, his "revolutionary" approach is, as he himself will admit, based on great common sense; why not engage prospects by asking them about themselves first? Barbara Jacobs
