Can you see the difference between the two questions in this video? Can you see how they will elicit entirely different responses from the buyer? Can you see how based on the questions, and the answers, how one question sets the salesperson up for success and the other keeps them in the same place? Most of you know how important I believe the discovery process is.

There are two kinds of fear. One of these fears prevents you from taking action, while the other fear compels you to take action. Most people fear the wrong danger, the first danger being more detrimental than the second. Here, we will look at two different fears in sales, consultative sales, and especially complex sales. Fear of Losing the Client. Much of what stops salespeople from taking the actions they should is the fear of doing something that might cause them to lose their client’s

When I was a hospitality management student I could see my career go a number of ways. But one way I never saw it go was technology. I’m not a programmer, I am not interested in creating apps and websites. I went into hospitality to work with people and not sit behind a desk. So technology was not anywhere close to my career vision. Now, however, 5 years after graduation, I can see myself working on the technology side of hospitality.

One of the most significant changes in sales is the meaning of the word “closing.” In the past, sales leaders would suggest that they wanted to hire people who could close deals, asking the prospective client to buy, and getting ink on a contract. That idea of a closer started to fall apart in the 1980s, something Neil Rackham documented in his most famous book, SPIN Selling.

This is the first in a series of posts for sales leaders. There are a few common reasons sales organizations struggle to produce the revenue necessary to reach their goals.

I started making cold calls when I was fifteen years old. I left my job washing dishes at a large banquet center and started calling community leaders to ask them to host a bike-a-thon for a popular charity. On my first job, I learned that it was very easy to outwork the other dishwashers, especially those who were afraid of getting wet, which prevented them from working in front of the station.

In August of 2017, I wrote about the fact that the linear sales process is broken. Because the sales conversation is nonlinear, it isn’t easy to follow a linear path from target to close. How could it be otherwise in something as dynamic and complex as human beings working towards change and better future results? My response was to develop a nonlinear approach to controlling the process and recognizing the commitments clients need to make and the different conversations that enable them to move

Some salespeople believe their CRM is a waste of time, that it doesn’t help them improve their results. They treat it like a task—one that they should avoid. Others believe that it is Big Brother, a tool used to spy on salespeople and monitor their every move. Neither of these beliefs is correct, nor are they helpful. As a sales leader, you want something more than grudging compliance.

Companies all over the world, including Marriot International and Hilton Worldwide, are aware of the value of including DEI in their talent acquisition strategy. However, despite these initiatives, there is still plenty that the hospitality sector can do to promote DEI. When comparing the hospitality industries in India, Iraq, the UK, and the US, you will see that there is a consistent underrepresentation of persons from different ethnic, gender, and disability origins across all levels of the i
