???????? ???????????????? ???????????????? ?????????? ?????????????????? ???????????????? ???????? ????’?? ?? ?????????? ???????? – ???????? ???????? ???? ?????? ???? ???????? ???????? “?????? ??????????” ???????? ?????????? ???????????????? (?????? ?????? ????????-????????-?????????? ?????????? ???? ??????????????).?
The hidden secret behind that approach is that they can like you and it can feel like a “good fit”, but they may not trust you – causing them to keep “shopping around”.?
In saturated and commoditized industries, trust is the final differentiating factor that you can still control.?

Do you like your mechanic??
Do you like your doctor??
It’s nice if they’re likeable as people but that doesn’t mean they’ll fix your car or your shoulder pain (which is all you really care about).?
In fact, being too nice often triggers doubt.?
“Are they legit or are they just trying to sell me through their personality? Better speak to some other mechanics/doctors/advisors first, just to be on the safe side”.?
When doubt or uncertainty enters your prospect’s mind, you’ve lost them – and it happens in a split second.?
(The know-like-trust old model doesn’t encourage frankness)?
I have a better way which I call the “One Call Sale”.?
With the One Call Sale model, you don’t ask general fact-finding questions in the initial meeting.?
And you don’t have to put energy into building inauthentic rapport.?
You can go straight to diagnosing their problem.?
It’s like a mechanic who plugs their console under your dash, or a doctor who clips your x-ray to the light box.?

“How long has it been vibrating like this?”?
“Does it hurt here?”?
“This is the cause of the vibration/shoulder pain and these are the other problems it’ll lead to”.?
The prospect pauses, then asks...?
“Can it be fixed?”, “Can you fix it?” “How do you work”, or something to that effect.?
The mechanic/doctor/advisor then says...?
“We solve problems like this every day. Here’s our process and this is how we work”.?
Wow.??
Before, the issue was an unsolvable mystery.?
Now, it’s a simple problem, solved as a matter of routine.?
The prospect has clarity for the first time: if they want their problem solved, you’re the one they can trust.?
There’s nothing subjective to think about, no room for doubt, no need to see other advisors.?
And if they don’t want their problem solved, you’ll learn that from the first meeting.?
Not at the end of four meetings, after wasting your time with free consulting and uncompensated value given along the way.?

1 年My father, a professional sales person shared with me decades ago "People buy from people they know and trust." Dad continued as he defined "Like" as to those individuals he would invite home for dinner. Hence, as per your examples, being "liked" is not a criterion. Thank you for affirming what my father told me years ago.
Have questions about Medicare, Long Term Care or Life Insurance?
1 年I'm a very charming guy, and I consider myself a consummate salesman, but only because people can feel that I care about their situation beyond making the sale. I wonder if my sales would do even better if I pulled back the charm...
