Here's how you can incorporate empathy for effective sales communication.

Empathy is key for successful communication. It means understanding your customers' feelings and needs, not only pushing your product. Share stories that connect with them personally, and show enthusiasm for helping them. When customers see you genuinely care, they're more likely to engage and consider what you're offering. :))

Incorporating empathy in sales, especially in the office technology industry, is crucial. It's not just about selling Managed Print Services (MPS), Multifunction Printers (MFP's), IT Services, or Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS). It's about understanding the unique needs and concerns of each client. By actively listening and validating their feelings, we can provide tailored technology solutions that truly align with their business goals and needs. This approach not only builds trust but also fosters long-term client relationships.

Empathy or, what I would say is, putting myself/yourself in the "shoes" of those around us, is one of the best things to do in order to genuinely connect & care for our customers. It's through this connection that strong bonds & relationships are formed. The building blocks of all good business!

Empathie = Gefühle + Fakten. Das bedeutet, dass ich zuerst versuche zu erfahren, welche Emotionen eine Situation bei meinem Gegenüber ausl?st, bevor ich mit einer L?sung komme. Eine konkrete Frage, die dabei hilft ist: "Wie geht es dir mit der Situation XY?" Jetzt folgt der wichtigste Teil: Ehrliches Interesse an dem, was mein Gespr?chspartner antwortet.

Leading with empathy is my number one priority in any sales conversation or process. We are humans, selling to other humans. I strive to leave my customers with a memorable and postive experience during any discovery or negotiation processes. Knowing that my customers feel heard, understood, and valued for their time and position in any project results in positive outcomes every time. Speak to your prospects and customers the same way you would like to be spoken to.

Active listening is not simply hearing what any one person is saying but digging deeper or going to the root of what is being said. The true message or needs & wants of those we serve. Someone may say "I need to think about it..." however what they are NOT saying is what concern or reservation(s) do they have about your company, product, and/or service(s) they may not be immediately sharing. Active listening is key to connection & uncovering what is at the heart of any one given individual and their specific desires & wants. It's only then can you determine if what is offered will truly meet their need(s).

Algumas maneiras de praticar escuta ativa e porque você deve fazer. - O famoso 80/20: 80% o cliente fala, 20% você, quanto mais você prestar aten??o nas coloca??es do cliente (e claro, usar as perguntas certas) mais chances de assertividade na hora de fechar um negócio você vai ter. Escuta ativa é t?o importante quanto qualquer outra etapa de um processo de vendas, ou até mesmo para a vida. Quanto mais eu escuto e consigo absorver o que o cliente me passa, mais detalhes eu entendo sobre ele e principalmente, sobre o que é importante para ele. Por fim, escuta ativa n?o é só saber ouvir, mas sim, saber o que vai fazer com o que você escuta. Uma habilidade que vai te diferenciar de muitos!

La escucha activa va más allá, implica leer los movimientos, los espacios de silencio, estar atento a la emocionalidad del otro, poder comprender el "pedido o mensaje" de fondo, para poder brindarle al cliente lo que incluso, no sabia que estaba necesitando.

inteligência emocional é quando o seu QI permanece estável enquanto você está emocionado. fa?a o teste em casa mesmo. quando estiver chorando, abra o site da Mensa e fa?a o desafio do QI online. boa sorte!

Emotions, as most all know, drive decisions. At least, emotions can shape behavior that then determines how any one person will act given their needs & wants. Emotions are not always rational or logical. By being more in control of my/your/our emotions, we can begin to help direct or guide not only ourselves along the path of better business decisions but also help navigate those who come alongside us through business.

A capacidade de usar a inteligência emocional dentro de um processo de vendas, é algo que trará muitos benefícios: controle das a??es, mais expertise em situa??es desafiadoras, maior chance de assertividade no seu posicionamento. Inteligência emocional é algo a ser estudado, praticar e principalmente entender. Uma pessoa com inteligência emocional bem desenvolvida n?o se deixa levar a provoca??es, e sabe contornar situa??es desafiadoras com mestria. E você, já come?ou a trabalhar a sua inteligência emocional?

Primero comprender que las emociones son reacciones biológica de muy pocos segundos, por ende no se pueden controlar, es aprender a gestionar. Importante centrarnos en nuestra respiración para auto regularnos, observar al cuerpo para poder identificar la emoción presente. Entendiendo que si aparece es porque me quiere ense?ar algo que necesito brindarme. Las emociones entonces podemos decir que no son ni malas ni buenas, eso es una creencia, es una herramienta que nos brinda información, un regalo que aprender. Cuando empiezo a gestionar mis respuestas son más eficaces

Um dos pontos cruciais relacionados à construir empatia e ao mesmo tempo gerar rapport durante um diálogo com um cliente é entender seu nível hierárquico, experiências e expertises. Adequar o seu discurso dependendo do nível ao qual você está falando, pode te trazer mais autoridade, objetividade, e assertividade em seu discurso, tornando a conversa mais interessante para o outro lado pois será notado o esfor?o concentrado de sua parte em se comunicar adequadamente ao perfil do seu interlocutor.

Tailoring solutions to "fix" or solve problems is a way to show not only active listening but also empathy & care/love too. It for sure helps those whom we do business with know they matter. They are important. Their needs are understood & will be met well!

We might not be curing illness, but we are solving real daily problems for our customers. Never hesitate to dig into customer problems as deep as you can. When you take the time to get to the root of their problems, it allows you to tell a much better story about how YOU and your team can transform their team, department, or workforce. This also creates a more personal connection with you and their project.

Esto sucede cuando efectivamente has logrado escuchar la inquietud del otro, porque has podido escuchar más allá de las palabras, has comprendido la necesidad, ya no es vender, es brindar un acompa?amiento en todo el proceso, porque lo importante va más allá de la transacción, es generar un vínculo, el cliente compra porque te eligió a vos, es decir que no sólo compra el producto o servicio, te está comprando a vos.

Always lead with your most authentic self. I believe too often we're afraid to be ourselves to customers. Compliment someone's glasses if you think they look good on them. Ask your audience of 10 guests where they are calling from. Crack a joke mid-presentation. Congratulate your champion on a recent promotion. Reassure someone that is experiencing technical issues on a virtual call to take their time. Little acts of kindness and genuine interest builds trust.

Ehrliches Interesse an meinem Gespr?chspartnern ist der Schlüssel zu erfolgreicher und exzellenter Kommunikation. Ich habe jahrelang Trainings und Coachings im Servicebereich gemacht. Das wichtigste Learning für mich war: Kunden haben kein Problem damit, wenn etwas schief l?uft, oder Fehler passieren. Sie haben jedoch ein gro?es Problem damit, wenn sie das Gefühl haben, dass es niemanden interessiert!

Interesse genuíno em situa??es onde você consegue entender, analisar e dar a melhor solu??o faz muita diferen?a em um atendimento. Mostra n?o só a sua capacidade de ter uma vis?o mais assertiva, mas também, ajudar com mais eficaz o seu cliente com as necessidades e dores que ele tem. E isso, é algo que ganha a confian?a, respeito e é lembrado pelo cliente.

Esto va de la mano al momento de fidelizar, es interiorizarnos en el otro, que cosas les gustan, lo que es importante y tenerlo presente, va más allá de un sourvenir impersonal de tu marca, es un detalle que el cliente realmente valore porque se sintió escuchado por vos, como por ejemplo, estar atento a la fecha del cumplea?os, preguntar por su hijo si tenia una inquietud, etc.

Like anything else, we get better & better through doing. There are no "born" surgeons, sales people, top athletes, etc. Yes, any one of us can have gifts that will pave the way faster & stronger towards our profession however it still takes hard work + energy + drive/determination, and dedication to continual learning & growing, to help us keep reaching new goals!
