As a sales professional, have you ever considered your own personal brand?

What do you bring to the marketplace and your customers that no one else does?

This isn't about having a logo and a tagline. It's about how you and your company are perceived in the space you operate. It's well worth your time to interview past and present customers to find out how they perceive you and your offering.

For example, questions you can ask clients and customers who chose your competitors (or not to do business with anyone):

1. Why did you choose to do business with me? Why did you choose to use a competitor?
2. What about my presence in your operation makes life easier? What makes it harder?
3. If you could have something outside of what we currently offer, what would that look like?
4. What can I do better for you and your business? What do my competitors do better?

Thoughtful questions and reflection on their answers will allow you to see gaps in your operation and those of your competitors. Continual improvement is based on knowing what will provide the biggest return to your investment in improvement. You represent a brand, whether you think so or not.

You've probably heard the quote from Epictetus about having two ears and one mouth, so you should use them in proportion. The best sales professionals use their eyes to listen as well.

What is your prospect saying with their body language? Are they engaged and interested, or feigning interest to be polite? Small gestures such as eye contact, intelligent questions, and even sighs and long exhales can give us clues to how our interactions are going from the customer's perspective.

The expert learns to hear what is said without words, because that's what the client is really trying to tell you, even if they don't articulate it well.

This is also why video chats can never be as effective as in-person visits. Always visit your clients in person if you are attempting to sell something that adds value.

The most successful people I've met in business are always planting seeds to nurture their future success.

Ask yourself daily:

"What seeds have I planted today?"
"What seeds to I need to nurture and feed today?"
"How are the seeds I planted days or weeks ago growing?"

Long-term success is anchored in your ability to consistently plant new seeds, then trust the process of growth that occurs in every other aspect in nature.

You are not a product of any individual effort, but your consistent actions across time.

Go get 'em team!

As a sales or marketing professional, we subconsciously segment our customers based on demographics. Either by location or size, business type or income, it's the simplest way to differentiate groups of people psychologically.

It's also the WORST way to segment your customers. Why? Because it has nothing to do with how they make their decisions. A small customer may care about personalized attention more than the largest target in your territory. A customer in Europe may buy based on your service just like a customer in Texas.

When segmenting your customers to strategize your sales and marketing plans, always ask yourself first about behaviours. HOW does this customer make buying decisions.? The customer could be the entire organization, the department, or the person sitting in front of you. If you ask HOW and WHY instead of WHO, WHERE, WHAT, and WHEN, you will see patterns that better inform your tactics.

The best sales professionals are students of human behaviour. To maximize your return on investment in sales, you need to understand WHY people make their decisions. We most often buy based on how we feel or the story we tell ourselves about how our lives will change after purchasing.

If you want to be a sales professional, you need to practice these key things:
1. Tell better stories (that evoke feelings).
2. Expertly read people's reactions (are the feelings you expect being evoked?)
3. Take notes from every interaction and refine for continual improvement.

Knowing that sales is a psychological game also requires you master your own psychology. Cold calling is hard. Performing in every presentation is hard. Follow-up is hard. Asking for referrals is hard. But if it were easy, everyone would do it.

Make a plan and be consistent about it. Consistency beats excellence every day. Perfection is the enemy of progress. Plan, act, reflect, repeat. Be imperfect but be consistent. This is the key to unlocking next level performance.
