Sales Made Simple™ - Potential sale that is dragging on...
A salesperson asks our sales expert a common problem (especially for new sales people): "I’ve got a potential sale that is dragging on and on and I’m about ready to give up. I’m having a hard time getting in to see the decision maker. I get some interest going and then I can’t see her for a few weeks because she’s traveling or she’s just too busy. I’m sending emails. I’m leaving phone messages. What else should I be doing?"

Sales Made Simple™ Cutting our price isn't an option...
A salesperson asks our sales expert a common problem (especially for new sales people): "A low-cost competitor has really gotten my customer’s attention. To keep my customer’s business, they want us to cut our price without changing our service level. There’s no way this competitor can do it at that price. Cutting our price isn’t an option and I don’t want to lose this customer. Any ideas?"

Sales Made Simple™ I am a "weak closer"...
A salesperson asks our sales expert a common problem (especially for new sales people): "According to my manager, I’m a “weak closer,” but I’ve spent so much time developing these relationships that I really don’t want to come off as pushy. So what I do is spend time laying out all the details and eventually the light bulb comes on for them. You know, if you compare me to the rest of my team my average sales are pretty much the same as everyone else. So, who’s right…my manager or me?"
