Talking about the evolution of relationship selling in 2023, Kristof describes a significant shift towards omni-channel direct selling, emphasizing digital brochures shared through platforms like WhatsApp. He also highlights the adaptability of representatives in leveraging technology to enhance their selling strategies. Moreover, Kristof discusses two emerging trends in Avon's sales approach. The first involves encouraging representatives to open their own stores, resembling a franchise model.

Welcome to the Selling from the Heart podcast with Darrell Amy and Larry Levine as they feature Brad Adams, a dynamic and engaging speaker, trainer, and coach who helps clients transform their organizations and accelerate revenue growth. Darrell shares the analogy of "slowing down to speed up" and this captures what Brad says about investing in people. If leaders want their sales reps to improve their relationship selling with their ideal clients, then they have to model how to invest in people to their sales reps. Coaching requires a significant time investment but the payoff translates to better relationships, retention, and results.HIGHLIGHT QUOTESAvoid being transactional and invest in your people instead - Brad: "When you just tell people what to do, it's almost like a salesperson being very transactionally-minded with their clients. You're being a transactional-minded leader when you're telling people what to do versus spending that extra time guiding them, provoking them, asking them very profound questions to get them to the realization that maybe they can do things a better way." Make the time investment to coach reps on relationship selling - Brad: "We don't do coaching as leaders because it's really hard and it's really time-consuming, but yet if we were to do that, we would mold the person into being a better relationship seller."Connect with Brad:LinkedInLearn more about Darrell and Larry: Darrell | Larry | WebsiteGot a video about how you sell from the heart?

I think sometimes we forget that being effective at sales is a learned skill. Maybe we think we're naturally good at it, or have been doing it so long that we must be good at it, or we despise sales and stay away from it altogether.

Nikki emphasizes the need to study communication and pay attention to social cues in order to relate to potential clients, and stresses that sales is something you do with another person, not something you do to them. Nikki also shares her five steps of the Selling Staircase, providing valuable insights for anyone looking to improve their sales process. Whether you're an experienced salesperson or someone who avoids sales like the plague, I guarantee my conversation with Nikki will offer a fresh perspective on the subject.

Years of trust can evaporate in a matter of moments if you forget this simple rule. Dmitri Leichik learned the hard way that customers are not buying your product, they are buying your commitment to their success. The moment they perceive a transactional motive, you've lost.Utilizing a founder led sales model, Twistellar has grown globally and still relies on Dmitri's long term relationship strategy that in many cases takes years to mature from conversation to trust to a project.If you sell B2B, you have to assume that a potential customer already has a trusted supplier. They may say no to you on a Monday and yes on a Friday because something changed in that relationship. Timing and luck are everything and that's why you have to be tireless in maintaining relationships over long periods of time.Highlights3:24 You need to clearly understand how people interact, how people communicate, how your sales people actually work every day to make their customers happy. Only then can you automate the process.5:14 A professional consultant must focus on the customer's business processes, not the solution features. Sometimes our role is to convince the customer not to spend money on a solution because the business is not ready.8:27 In sales, the first step needs to be defining “What difference can you bring to the table?”9:49 To be successful, three factors need to come together at the same time: You need luck to be in the right place at the right time, you need to be very active to be in as many places as possible, you have to be working hard to make every customer successful.11:49 I still do most of the selling myself since I am the best person to match business needs to technical solutions. I am a technical advisor and am never trying to sell a specific solution.13:47 In B2B, a potential customer already has a supplier to solve their problems. You have to get to them at the exact moment where they have some reason to consider a new partner.14:45 We work 12-14 hours a day so that we can always be available to give friendly advice. That's how we ‘sell'.18:48 To win business, you have to demonstrate that you bear the responsibility for the project's success.20:49 It can take years to build a relationship before the first project. On the other hand, one wrong action can spoil that relationship in one day.23:01 You must consider all of the people in an organization who benefit from your work. They are part of your word of mouth referral network especially when they move to a new company.26:50 The sales process ends when the work is done and the customer is happy.28:10 Mistakes can be made and it's critically important to take responsibility for them. We recently underestimated a project by 400 hours and we accepted the loss.About Our GuestDmitri Leichik is CEO and co-founder of Twistellar, #1 Salesforce Consulting Partner in Denmark.

Sales has such a bad reputation. Have you noticed that? It triggers both people being sold to and those doing the selling. I have had experiences on both sides of the table and felt either icky as the person extending the offer or manipulated as the one having the offer extended to.But then I started applying a different sales concept that I love and feel comfortable about. And what's the best part - it works! Not only is my business proof of that, but I also have a guest whose results confirm the power of these methods - applying them, she multiplied her conversion rate by over 400% in the first two years.She is Nicole Cramer - a high-vibe sales coach for female health and wellness entrepreneurs.

Your WORDS can make you money. In a recent sales conversation, I started second-guessing myself and making up stories about what a client was thinking on the other end... As I reflected on it and how to include words and questions that would lead to greater success next time, I started thinking about how choosing the right words, in so many instances can make us money and grow our businesses. In this episode, I get into: Why not to write the story of your client's pockets Why to detach from the outcome of a particular project and client Why to choose the words you say about yourself carefully How to re-think the value you're offering in your product or service A question to include in your next sales conversation that can give you a lot of insight and guide the process forward How your content can make you money and how to lay it out in a way that increases your know, like, and trust factor How your words on networking calls and coffee chats can be a tool for connection And how the various words we use in our businesses can be a powerful tool to move us forward, or hold us back Links Mentioned Emily Aborn's Website Episode #156 Everything Content: How to choose a communication method that works for you Episode #158 Relationship-Selling with Nikki Raush She Built This: Lakes Region Event
“Sales is a collaborative experience. It's something you do with people, not to people.” - Nikki Rausch Your job when selling isn't to convince people to buy from you, it's to determine whether or not your solution can help make their lives better.

This week I have a very popular re-release of a previous episode that I think is so valuable for those of you who love your clients but either you or someone on your team has an aversion to selling. At a time where costs of doing business are growing, your businesses' ability to keep profit margins juicy and also serve patients at the highest level is critical. In fact, back in episode 98 I shared best practices for raising your prices. If you haven't raised your prices in the past 6-9 months, be sure to jump over to that episode after this one. The goal of that episode was to really help you get comfortable with the process of increasing your prices routinely. I talk about: Why we believe in and teach high ticket brand positioning in our academy How to know it's time to raise your prices Best practices for implementing a price increase without disrupting the client experience And remember we are looking for the most discerning buyer who is willing to invest hard in their experience and results… and pricing is one powerful way to own a high margin market position. But if you're busy apologizing for the cost of the services you offer, you'll never earn the confidence of that dream client. That's what this episode is all about. PS- I wanted to make sure you know that the application window is now open for Confidence to Scale, our 6 week business growth certification program where we are helping fully booked aesthetic providers develop clarity and confidence around their ability to scale their business through valuable assets like a proprietary method and profit producing team members. In this program we really aim to help you understand what becoming the CEO of your business and life really requires of you. And help you understand what kind of rewards await as you cross the bridge to entrepreneurial freedom- IF you put in the work to practice and develop the skills of becoming a world class leader. And what that is going to require of you is becoming the woman who is prepared to advance to the next level, to play a different role in your business. Less overworked provider and more bossed up CEO.

Most people, especially entrepreneurs, have mixed feelings around sales. It might seem odd that you have built a service or a product that you believe could genuinely solve a problem, a want or a need, but then struggle to sell it. But according to Nikki Rausch, CEO of Sales Maven, it's because we have all had a similar experience of being sold to instead of being sold with. Being sold to, looks like receiving emails that you never asked for, for “pain points” you never gave a stranger permission to talk to you about. Being sold to is that gross feeling when someone creates a pain point or a problem just to sell you the solution. To sell with someone is to listen and to offer invitations. Selling with someone is following the 5 Step Selling Staircase, so that you truly understand what your potential customer/client needs and wants before you ever actually propose a sale. So, if you're ready to transform your feelings around the selling process or just want to avoid some common selling mistakes, listen in to Episode 56 of The Lean Out Your Business podcast where Nikki Rausch and Host, Crista Grasso discuss: 2:05 why selling “to” someone doesn't work 4:25 how to shift to relationship selling 5:40 what it looks like to provide a solution rather than create a problem 6:35 the 5 steps to the selling staircase 7:25 common mistakes that are made in the selling process 8:05 what happens when you skip steps in the selling process 10:55 why most sales lists are garbage 12:10 tips for selling through your email campaigns 14:30 sales psychology and reasons why your sales tactics might not be landing right with you or your potential client 19:15 how to leverage relationship selling 20:00 the sales trifacta - three things that need to be aligned in order to make a sale 21:45 the importance of issuing an invitation if you want to make a sale 23:25 why you should put pricing on your website Links from Today's Episode: If you're ready to level up your sales game, download Nikki's free e-book to help you increase your confidence and close the sale at salesmaven.com/leanout Want more air time with Nikki?
