The truest statement in this chapter is: "If you're not present when the last decision is made - odds are you will lose the final battle of the sales war without being able to fire one bullet".
You can not rely on someone to sale your service or product.  You are the expert! ]]> 2016-06-09 11:47:02 UTC https://padlet.com/troyster1/LittleRedBookChapter6/wish/114200417 https://padlet.com/troyster1/LittleRedBookChapter6/wish/114240325 I like the idea of talking about profit and productivity, instead of saving money, to gain their interest.  When you talk about saving money, you are typically just talking price.    ]]> 2016-06-09 16:49:11 UTC https://padlet.com/troyster1/LittleRedBookChapter6/wish/114240325 https://padlet.com/troyster1/LittleRedBookChapter6/wish/114310418 The secret to getting voice mail returned is to compel the customer to want to call you back. I like the example of the using the kid, don't know if I would use that one but certainly need to think of more creative ways to get responses.]]> 2016-06-10 10:42:12 UTC https://padlet.com/troyster1/LittleRedBookChapter6/wish/114310418 https://padlet.com/troyster1/LittleRedBookChapter6/wish/114331274 I particularly enjoyed steps 1 and 2 on page 105. First getting your prospects personal approval, that they would move forward if it was just up to them. Then getting them on your team to sell to anyone else in the company that would need to be sold.]]> 2016-06-10 13:40:12 UTC https://padlet.com/troyster1/LittleRedBookChapter6/wish/114331274 https://padlet.com/troyster1/LittleRedBookChapter6/wish/114352650  I dared to start  high on the food chain with new customer that has 4 locations .

Then what? Ask Then what for or five times and Presto! You'll have the name of the real decision maker."

I have had numerous occasions over the years that I thought I was talking to the decision maker and found out in sometimes months later  I was not. What a dummy I was. The must ask     question: How will this decision be made? And then what? Two simple questions I wished I had followed up with a dozen times.

If you are not, one of your competitors will more than likely be there and take freight off of our truck and onto theirs. When you are presaent for that last discussion/decision, you will have the opportunity for that one last sale or to address that one last objection. That might be the key element in their carrier selection process]]> 2016-06-12 20:04:55 UTC https://padlet.com/troyster1/LittleRedBookChapter6/wish/114424274 https://padlet.com/troyster1/LittleRedBookChapter6/wish/114428829 KATHY ]]> 2016-06-12 21:52:15 UTC https://padlet.com/troyster1/LittleRedBookChapter6/wish/114428829 https://padlet.com/troyster1/LittleRedBookChapter6/wish/114428830 KATHY carl]]> 2016-06-12 21:52:15 UTC https://padlet.com/troyster1/LittleRedBookChapter6/wish/114428830 https://padlet.com/troyster1/LittleRedBookChapter6/wish/114429475 2016-06-12 22:07:38 UTC https://padlet.com/troyster1/LittleRedBookChapter6/wish/114429475 https://padlet.com/troyster1/LittleRedBookChapter6/wish/114429476 You engage...you spark....you create desire and provide interest!
