Pre-Sell the Sale
Got a tough sale coming up? Maybe a price increase? Maybe your company is dropping one of your favored product lines and you are faced with switching your customers to a different product. Maybe your marketing department just sent you the new promotional plan for the quarter? These are all real-life scenarios that we face as salespeople that Greg Martinelli discusses in this episode of his podcast. While we’re talking about sales, mark your calendars for the 2023 Dealership Minds Summit that will center around the theme Selling in Ag’s New World Order.
