Keynote by Duff Tucker:
Legions of salespeople are coming face to face with a cold, hard truth: What once gave salespeople a competitive edge - controlling the sales process, command of product knowledge, and a great presentation - are no longer guarantees of success.
Likewise, a relentless onslaught of "me-too" competitors has made differentiating on the attributes of products, services, and prices more challenging than ever.
Buyers’ expectations have also changed. They expect and demand more from their interactions with sellers than a canned pitch of the company’s marketing brochures. They want a better buying experience.
In this provocative keynote, Sales Gravy builds the case for why the buyer’s emotional experience while going through the buying journey with the salesperson has proven to be a more consistent predictor of outcome than any other variable. Then, through engaging stories and illustrations, Sales Gravy demonstrates why sales professionals who’ve developed high sales-specific emotional intelligence (Sales EQ) consistently outperform their peers.
In this message, Sales Gravy walks the audience through essential lessons including:
Expected Outcomes
This entertaining and educational keynote takes your audience on a fascinating journey into the new psychology of sales and the real science behind influence, persuasion, and shaping buying decisions. They’ll learn the secrets to building deep relationships, keeping stakeholders engaged, and separating themselves from competitors by delivering a legendary buying experience.
Keynote by Duff Tucker:
For as long as salespeople have been asking buyers to make commitments, buyers have been throwing out objections. And, for as long as buyers have been saying no, salespeople have yearned for the secrets to avoiding the inevitable rejection.
But there is no avoiding rejection in sales. To be successful, sales professionals must learn to face rejection, effectively handle objections, and keep moving.
Sales Gravy comes right out of the box to address the truth about rejection: We fear it more than death, and unchecked, the fear of rejection can become a debilitating demotivator for sales professionals that leads to failure. Yet, the fear of rejection isn’t an irrational psychological disorder. Instead, it’s a natural human reaction based on neuroscience.
Then, Sales Gravy deftly leverages “edge-of-your-seat” stories of persistence and overcoming gut-wrenching emotional obstacles to give the audience the keys to pushing through fear, becoming rejection-proof, and developing an unstoppable mindset.
Finally, through live audience interaction, Sales Gravy demonstrates how, by combining this new awareness with proven objection turn-around frameworks and techniques, salespeople can rise above their disruptive emotions and quickly turn NO into YES.
The audience will learn a new psychology for turning around objections and techniques that work with today’s more informed, in control, and skeptical buyers gaining deep insight into:
Expected Outcomes
The audience will walk away with the confidence to face and effectively handle objections in any selling situation.
