Want to know the secret to putting more cash in your bank account? Take any two salespeople from the same company. Even if both are nearly identical in training, motivation, and initiative, it can almost always be predicted which one will sell more and make more money. All things nearly equal, the salesperson who knows more closes and how to read buying signs (and knows when to deliver them) wins the business virtually every time. Period.

Have you ever wondered why it’s so easy to talk with some people and not with others? It’s simple - you speak the same language! This doesn’t mean that you both speak English or have a similar dialect. It means that you connect with them on some level. In selling, building trusting relationships is all about understanding people who are different from you and being flexible enough in your communication skills to relate to them. This is a learned skill!
