Do you have a great product but aren't attracting the right customers to buy it? Not sure how to approach your customers or have a confusing sales message? Use the following sales tips to gain more of the right customers:
1. Pick the right price. Do market research on your competitors to determine the right price. If you have a high-priced product, be prepared to over-deliver quality to your customers. Price can be determined by the "perceived value" of your product. If you can make your product seem superior to your competitors, you can charge a higher price.
2. Learn proper negotiation techniques. Skilled negotiators are usually quite concerned about finding a solution or arrangement which is satisfactory to all parties. They look for what are called "win-win" situations, in which all parties are happy with the results. The best negotiators have these three qualities:
