NEW! STOP Selling. START
Closing Sales!
It's not hard for salespeople
to be busy. The question
is are they busy with
selling activities - and
forgetting to ask for
the order? Do they ask
early enough? Often enough?
In ways that make it easy
for customers to say "Yes?"
CEO magazine reported
in 2009 that the #1 business
challenge was not a lack
of information. It was
not a lack of new ideas.
It was a lack of execution.
In sales, we call that
CLOSING.
Social marketing and
networking events can
increase prospecting.
Dazzling Power Point slides
may improve presenting.
What are your sales professionals
doing to close more sales?
This keynote reminds
the audience to focus
on asking for the order.
It has lots of real, fresh
stories from my 25 years
of selling, sales trainng
- and people watching.

Even
non-salespeople can benefit
from her programs!
Here's what
an engineer
from San Diego wrote:
Dear Michelle,
I am not a sales or a marketing
person. In fact, I am a hard
core engineer and have been
so for over 10 years. However,
I believe that sales is not
just limited to selling a product,
but in fact everything in our
lives. Succeeding in winning
the heart of the perfect match,
getting accepted to a good school,
finding the right job, winning
the approval of your board,
getting elected to office or
motivating your kids - you need
to sell.
SALES
TRAINING and BREAKOUT SESSIONS
(45 minutes to a half-day per
topic)
Sales Training is more tactical
and interactive than a keynote.
It focuses on the questions,
"How do we achieve X?"
and "What are the steps
we should take to be more Y?"
It usually includes a customized
workbook and can involve role-playing,
for better learning.

NEW!
Kick
Up Your Closing Ratio
Using Science!
-imagine
Bill Nye, the Science
Guy, meets Zig Ziglar
Target Audience: Sales
Professionals and Small
Businesses Owners
Outcome:
Audience members learn
how to increase their
closing ratios, so they
can sell more, close faster
and for more money - without
spending any additional
time, money or energy
Did
you know that if your
sales team applies the
Golden Rule to their selling,
they will only easily
close their customers
10% of the time? Without
this training, closing
is difficult 90% of the
time!
Learn
the science behind why
this is true - and how
it directly impacts your
sales team's closing ratio.
If your
team has fewer prospective
customers than they did
a year ago - maybe far
fewer, this talk is for
you!
Let's
say you had 100 prospects
a year ago and today,
you only have 50. If you
had a 10% closing ratio
back then, to maintain
your level of sales, you
can either sell for more
hours every day, or kick
up your closing ratio!
This
workshop shows you how
to apply the science of
the respected Myers-Briggs
Type Indicator® to
improve your selling.
You'll learn how to speed-read
customers - by the way
they walk, talk, dress
and act - and then sell
and close them!
Learn what it means,
and how to close your
customers when they:
- Give lots of eye contact
- Ask to read the manual
or contract
- Announce the number
of points they will cover
- Tell their children
to behave
- Wear a 7-piece matching
outfit
Audiences consistently
give this class rave reviews.
Recenly, an experienced
insurance agent commented,
"I wish I'd heard
this talk yesterday. It
would have helped me close
a sale."

Strategies to Overcome the Price
Objection
"Your
price is too high," is
the most common rebuttal from
prospective customers. Most
salespeople have a few standard
responses to the price objection,
but that's not enough. Here,
Michelle presents 24 ways to
turn the customer around regarding
the subject of price. If one
doesn't work, there are plenty
more to try again – and
again – until they close
the sale. Learn
