Six Steps of Personal Selling

Prospecting• Before planning a sale, a salesperson conducts research to identify the people or companies that might be interested in her product.

Pre-Approach• The pre-approach is the “doing your homework” part of the process. A good salesperson researches his prospect, familiarizing himself with the customer’s needs and learning all the relevant background.

Approach• First impressions (e.g., the first few minutes of a sales call) are crucial to building the client’s trust.• This usually involves introductions, making some small talk, asking a few warm-up questions, and generally explaining who you are and whom you represent. This is called the approach.

Presentation•It might involve a product demonstration, videos, PowerPoint presentations, or letting the customer actually look at or interact with the product.

Closing the Sale

• Eventually, if your customer is convinced your product will meet her needs, you close by agreeing on the terms of the sale and finishing up the transaction.

Following Up

• The follow-up is an important part of assuring customer satisfaction, retaining customers and prospecting for new customers.
