There is no such thing as selling... people must BUY from you when creating a monetary transaction. Buying is simply put, a decision making process.   And it is based solely upon HOW we feel at the moment of that decision. People DO NOT buy products or services, they buy FEELINGS! Period! How they feel about the product or service is the determining factor in what they DECIDE to buy. Therefore, if you, as the salesperson cannot create an atmosphere of trust and likeability you are guaranteed the prospect will not buy from YOU!

“People buy emotionally and then justify their decision logically!” 

The challenge with most sales books and programs is that they try to teach you to persuade an individual they need your product or service. But the successful salespeople of today’s new paradigm of selling understand that’s it’s to help people decide how you can fulfill THEIR  buying strategy. The idea is to help guide and influence them to DECIDE your product is the one that fills their wants and needs.

Individuals BUY because of only 3 reasons;

1. They can communicate their needs, they’re listened to!

2. They LIKE you, thus Trust you.

3. They FEEL good about you, your product and most importantly themselves.
