Everyone is focusing on details…

• Write great books – authority of authorship

• Seminars & Workshops – only on their subject matter

• Magazine articles (on their subject)

• TV and Radio features

• Give FREE – but no desperate ‘pro-bono’

• FREE > what competition sells for money

A word on FREE…

RULE OF FREE: Never give away for FREE what you can’t sell for money!

• Have auto-responder systems

All the above leads to PROSPECTS

Qualifying & Accepting the Order

has an agenda)

2. Intensify urgent need or greed

3. Uncover urgency

4. Uncover budget

5. Uncover decision making process

• Experts LOVE order-taking!! Does a dentist try to sell to a guy with a toothache?

Experts’ NO-BRAINER Sales Process

• No time for tire-kickers (time wasters)

• Never waste money (on premature lunches)

• Get to the truth first time - Deal with it and move on!

Experts’ NO-BRAINER Sales Process

• No lame cold calls – people almost feel entitled to be rude (justifiably sometimes)

• Experts do their homework; have posture; have borrowed credibility or are introduced

• Give prospects/ clients Megaphones e.g free coupons for friends, etc

• Always stay in touch with worthy prospects

• To make millions you must always have millions’ worth of proposals out there

Expert Knows

• You can’t do biz with everybody and don’t want to - (walk away or fire prospect)

• Prospects are the biggest liars and fabricate stories (with respect)

• If you sleep with dogs, you get flees!

• People want to deal with people: RESPECT
