Download or read book Behavior Based Sales written by Peder Henrik Seglund and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the impact of a behavior based sales training package on sales performance for the sales divisions of two different organizations located in separate cities in the Midwestern United States. The independent variable was a package that included: behavior based sales training; feedback; and reinforcement. The primary dependent variable was sales performance results, which is a measure of the participants closing percentage. Secondary dependent variables included income, participant attendance at sales meetings, participant satisfaction, and changes in knowledge. The intervention package was implemented at each site over a course of four weeks employing a non concurrent multiple baseline design. Visual and statistical analysis suggests the training package was effective at increasing the closing percentage at each site, but the effects were not maintained after the training package was removed. In addition, the attendance at sales meetings increased, knowledge increased as it related to behavior and sales, and participant and organization income increased. The post training survey suggests a favorable evaluation of the training package by participants. The goal of the study was to examine behavioral techniques that could be generalized to any organization's sales division for performance improvement. Few studies have applied behavioral techniques to improve sales performance. The current study fills a gap in the research literature, demonstrating the impact of a behavioral approach on sales performance and its effect on participant behavior in a sales organization.

Download or read book The Challenger Sale written by Matthew Dixon and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-11-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What's the secret to sales success? If you're like most business leaders, you'd say it's fundamentally about relationships-and you'd be wrong. The best salespeople don't just build relationships with customers. They challenge them. The need to understand what top-performing reps are doing that their average performing colleagues are not drove Matthew Dixon, Brent Adamson, and their colleagues at Corporate Executive Board to investigate the skills, behaviors, knowledge, and attitudes that matter most for high performance. And what they discovered may be the biggest shock to conventional sales wisdom in decades. Based on an exhaustive study of thousands of sales reps across multiple industries and geographies, The Challenger Sale argues that classic relationship building is a losing approach, especially when it comes to selling complex, large-scale business-to-business solutions. The authors' study found that every sales rep in the world falls into one of five distinct profiles, and while all of these types of reps can deliver average sales performance, only one-the Challenger- delivers consistently high performance. Instead of bludgeoning customers with endless facts and features about their company and products, Challengers approach customers with unique insights about how they can save or make money. They tailor their sales message to the customer's specific needs and objectives. Rather than acquiescing to the customer's every demand or objection, they are assertive, pushing back when necessary and taking control of the sale. The things that make Challengers unique are replicable and teachable to the average sales rep. Once you understand how to identify the Challengers in your organization, you can model their approach and embed it throughout your sales force. The authors explain how almost any average-performing rep, once equipped with the right tools, can successfully reframe customers' expectations and deliver a distinctive purchase experience that drives higher levels of customer loyalty and, ultimately, greater growth.

Download or read book A Study of Behavioral Techniques for Sales Performance Improvement written by Peder Seglund and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012-08 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sales can be complex. The current research attempted to examine alternative techniques to traditional sales formats and training by implementing a behavior-based approach to improving sales performance. The study examined how implementation of rewards and reinforcement can be modified to improve target behaviors. In addition, behavioral techniques were utilized in training that consisted of seminars relating to: antecedents, behaviors, and consequences of both client and participant; positive, immediate, and certain consequences of behaviors; discriminative stimulus and overcoming objections vs buying questions; and verbal and non-verbal behavior. The results suggest that modifying target behaviors with a behavior-based sales training package can increase target behaviors and improve sales performance.

Download or read book The Sandler Rules written by and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2009 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All prospects lie, all the time. Never ask for the order. Get an I.O.U. for everything you do. Don't spill your candy in the lobby. Until now, these unique rules (and 45 more) were given out only to Sandler Training clients in special seminars and private coaching. After three decades of proven success, the secrets are out in "The Sandler Rules". And when salespeople know the rules, they get results. Early in his sales career, David Sandler observed that some salespeople work hard and struggle for every deal, while others consistently, and almost effortlessly, uncover new opportunities and close sales. Why is it, he wondered, that two salespeople selling the same product in the same market can have such different results? Are great salespeople born with a special gift -- perhaps the right personality? Were they better educated? Did they have more experience? Were they just lucky to find themselves in the right places at the right times with the right people? No, they simply understood human relationships. Using Eric Berne's Transactional Analysis, Sandler devised a selling system and distilled forty-nine unforgettable rules that are frank, sometimes fun, and always easy to put to use. Sandler Training CEO David Mattson, coauthor of "Five Minutes with VITO", delivers this fresh and often funny guidebook, filled with real-world tactics for successful prospecting, qualifying, deal-making, closing, and referral generation.
