Most salespeople are trained to build rapport, gather information, and follow up later. But what if your prospect is ready today? In service-based, in-home sales (home- improvement, senior care, children's services, etc.) the best close might happen on the first visit. Do you want to be strong in influencing or persistent in follow-up to make a sale?
Join Bill and me as we break down How to Close on the First Appointment - Part One by building curiosity and interest, defining the buying criteria, uncovering motivation and creating urgency to close the deal with confidence on Episode 692 of the Winning at Selling Podcast.
