Charting your Company's Course for Predictable and Sustainable Sales Growth” and the “NavSTAR Client AcquisitionTM System” for many groups and associations. Groups include Vistage International, the world's largest CEO peer-to-peer association, and the Turnaround Management Association (TMA). Craig has also been featured at Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) group events.Can you share with our listeners what the six stars are of the NAVSTAR client acquisition system that helped generate significant predictable and sustainable new client growth?Absolutely. Like the ancient mariners, they had to chart their course and they followed the stars. Based on a 40-year track record of trial and error and learning, I came up with this system that I believe everyone either in sales or as a trusted advisor should follow. It starts with targeting the right fit clients or customers that you're seeking. It's foundational. If you don't get that right, you can't get any of the other five stars right.How do we shorten that sales cycle? Do you have some advice on that? Number one- Know your buyer journey. Everything starts with a buyer journey. Put your customer hat on your target audience and say, "If I were to make a decision for my products or services, what step would I go through?"Then you need to choreograph the dance, build the sales mapping process from the customer's point of view. Because of the lead conversion process, we want to be going down the road in the same direction, at the same speed that our prospective client is going. maybe a little bit ahead of them in being able to offer them A and B chocolate or vanilla options in order to guide them in terms of making an informed purchasing decision for themselves. Because in many cases they haven't purchased from someone like us maybe forever. Maybe it's been 3 to 5 years and they don't know how to purchase. So we have to guide them through the process. The third thing is because of the pandemic and there was a great article that was put out by McKinsey right and was November of 2020 after an associate of mine, and Lori knows him, put me in Forbes talking about what's going on in the virtual world. And as I say today, we're in a virtual selling world. And digital self-serve is the driver. And in the McKinsey report, which was shocking, I think, to a lot of people, do you think the sellers are driving virtual selling? No, the buyers are buying virtual selling.And so much more… Connect with Craig!LinkedInSmooth Selling Forevercraig@smoothsellingforever.com (630)649-4943Smooth Selling Forever: Charting Your Company's Course for Predictable and Sustainable Sales Growth

ORIGINAL AIRDATE: December 16th, 2016 --- Riley is caught hacking the NSA and the team quickly swoops in to save her. MISSION: Riley goes AWOL and Mac, Jack, and Bozer move to track her down before the US Government throws her back into supermax. This week's highlights include: Global Positioning System (Technology) The Global Positioning System (GPS), also known as Navstar GPS or simply Navstar, is a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) that provides geolocation and time information to a GPS receiver in all weather conditions, anywhere on or near the Earth where there is an unobstructed line of sight to four or more GPS satellites. The GPS system operates independently of any telephonic or internet reception, though these technologies can enhance the usefulness of the GPS positioning information. The GPS system provides critical positioning capabilities to military, civil, and commercial users around the world. The United States government created the system, maintains it, and makes it freely accessible to anyone with a GPS receiver. However, the US government can selectively deny access to the system, as happened to the Indian military in 1999 during the Kargil War. Check out the article on wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Positioning_System.
Global Oracle: a work of prophetic science. Poem: Alec Finlay; sound-design: Chris Watson. The recording accompanies the book-length poem Global Oracle (morning star, 2014). As part of the same project, Finlay created an installation of bee-themed artworks at Talbot Rice Gallery in 2014, as part of the Generation series, and will create a permanent work on the campus of the University of Warwick, in 2015. "Global Oracle explores the relationship between bees, prophecy in Ancient Greece, and GPS satellite navigation systems, such as our contemporary oracle, Garmin. It offers a touching paean to dwelling, and an elegy for the fate of the bees, which is our fate." (Alec Finlay) The project is a commission by The University of Warwick Art Collection.
