Qualifying vs. Closing the Sale

The Art of efficient inquiry asking (certifying) establishes the efficiency and also the success of the “close”.
INSTANCE: Let’s presume you’re a sweet sales rep. You market both delicious chocolate as well as non-chocolate sweet. You continue to inform me exactly how fantastic the sweet preferences, just how beautiful the appearance is, exactly how unbelievable the high quality of the delicious chocolate is, and also, by the means, exactly how inexpensive this sweet is due to the fact that your business is doing a promo on this superior delicious chocolate sweet.
WHY?
You presumed I suched as delicious chocolate sweet and also I would certainly purchase it based upon the info you supplied. The most crucial point you failed to remember to determine or ask me is “do you like delicious chocolate sweet?”.
The answser is “no, I despise delicious chocolate sweet?”. Given that you never ever took the time to comprehend me as your possible brand-new consumer, you shed today’s sale as well as future sales a well.

” Do you like delicious chocolate sweet?”.

” Do you consume any kind of sort of sweet?”.
My feedback “sometimes”.

My reaction “2 to 3 times monthly”.
Your action “when you do consume sweet, what kind of sweet do you consume?”
My reaction “hard-type, mint sweets”.
Your feedback “have you ever before tasted our unbelievable tough, mint sweets?”.
UNDERSTAND? “Its everything about asking, not marketing.” When you have actually recognized what’s essential to me, the consumer, you have actually placed on your own to offer me what I desire – not what you have.
