Aurelius on Getting Wasted
“Be not careless in deeds,
nor confused in words,
nor rambling in thought.”
–Marcus Aurelius (121–180)
Roman emperor and philosopher
Sales reminder…
Be careful to minimize any tendencies to over promise or say what you feel needs to be said in a sales call. After getting someone’s attention/ interest, the most vital business is that you learn what your prospects/ customers really want or need and why (not to show what you have or know).
The simplest way to do this is to forget about yourself, your company, your products, and your competition.
Focus only on the discussion and them. Be real. Question questions and listen (top 30 open-finished questions here).
Care for them and they’ll more likely care for you… by buying. (Get a printable reminder to be real.)
