My 12-week program to transform industrial gas sales reps More on it ?? The industrial gas landscape is changing fast. Your customers already know what they want before you walk in. They've done their research. They've read the specs. They've compared prices online. So why do they still need you? Because numbers don't tell the whole story. Let me share what we learned in our Sales Counselor program this week. Stop talking about your company being different. Start asking about their challenges. Stop focusing on product features. Start discussing bottom-line impact. Here's a real example: A metal fab shop is doing rework because of poor laser gas quality. What's the real cost of that rework? Suddenly, we're not talking about gas prices anymore. We're talking about the total cost of ownership. We're discussing business impact. We're solving real problems. Think about buying a car. The sales rep asks about monthly payments. But you want to know about total value. It's the same with your gas customers. Maybe your price is 10% higher. But if you're saving them $50,000 annually, who wins? The right questions reveal the real needs. The right solutions solve real problems. This is how you become an advisor. This is how you stop being "just another gas rep." Want to learn more? Join my 12-week program: https://lnkd.in/dDh5ZKfu

How just $1000 can help you sell more gases Here's how ?? Here's a simple math problem. What's the cost of proper sales training? $1,000 (more or less) What's the sales equivalent? Just 35 argon cylinders at $28 each. That's all it takes to recover your investment. ?? But here's what your rep gets for that investment: ? Four hours of real-world training from 16+ years of experience. ? Knowledge of who actually makes buying decisions. ? Understanding of different buyer personalities. ? Mastery of communication approaches that work. ? Real strategies for building credibility. ? Specific questions that get results. ? Market-specific pain points and solutions. ? The right gases for each industry. ? They'll learn what to pitch in a lab. ? They'll know what works in food processing. ? They'll understand metal fabrication needs. This isn't theoretical training. This comes from active selling experience. I still make these calls every day. I still use these techniques myself. Here's the real question: Are you investing in your reps' success? Or are you just hoping they figure it out? Are you building professionals? Or are you churning through talent? Think about it: You've already invested in hiring them. You've already invested in their salary. You've already invested in their benefits. Why not invest in their success? 35 argon cylinders. That's all it takes.

I have a challenge for every industrial gas sales rep What is it ?? Stop leading with your company pitch. Stop talking about your truck count. Stop reciting the same old song and dance. Start asking deeper questions. Start provoking real thought. Start meaningful conversations. Your customers don't want another sales pitch. They want someone who understands their challenges. They need someone who can solve their problems. Price discussions are a trap. When you only talk price, you're just another number. When you lead with value, you become a resource. When you focus on ROI, you become an advisor. When you solve problems, you become a consultant. Strategic questions change everything. They open new conversations. They reveal real business challenges. They lead to meaningful solutions. Your customers will see you differently. They'll stop seeing a gas supplier. They'll start seeing a trusted advisor. The results speak for themselves. Better relationships. Stronger partnerships. Higher sales. Less price pressure. Want to learn how to ask the right questions?
