There are good days in sales and there are challenging days. It’s an everyday journey. The stress of living and selling yourself as a sales professional today requires us to have focus and stress reduction techniques that may be used throughout the day during every buying and selling encounter. We all must look at our business mindset and the sales process in a different way.
When you integrate mindfulness and sales you become more effective and profitable. Mindfulness is being present in the moment, without judgment. Use mindfulness to increase sales by:
- Reducing Stress and Anxiety
- Creating Focus
- Reducing Overwhelm
- Increasing Memory
- Improving Health & Happiness
Know Your Beliefs Qualification: Mindful Sales Practice 3 of 7
Beliefs – Beliefs are strongly held thoughts that are held consciously or unconsciously to be true.
Integrating Beliefs into the Sales Process: Do you believe in yourself? Do you believe in your product or service? Are you willing and able to convey that belief in a convincing way to your customer? Do you elicit an emotional reaction within yourself when you share your product or service with someone else? If yes, is that emotion positive or negative? If you believe in yourself and you believe in your product, you will begin to feel an emotional response when you identify the ideal customer. This is where sales becomes something more than a transaction, it becomes an experience. Our invitation is for you to transcend your beliefs into an authentic, world-class customer experience.
Qualification is, without question, the most important step in the Mindful Sales process. This includes a series of questions you ask your customer before selling anything.
