In a tight economy, a complaint we are hearing from business owners is customer fear of spending and the time it takes to achieve a sale.\u00a0 So, what can you do to overcome their fears and speed up the sales process?<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Branding is wonderful but unless your brand is mighty and instantly recognisable, it\u2019s unlikely people will purchase what you have based on brand alone. It\u2019s more important than ever to have clarity about why your product or service is valuable to your customer\/client, and why they should be buying it from you and not your competitor \u2013 or online!\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

Solution selling is a process where you holistically consider your customers’ needs and recommend specific products\/services to best accommodate or alleviate the individuals\u2019 problems or concerns.<\/p>

You must also take time to consider how you differ from your competition and why you are the best choice. This can be difficult as the product can be purchased cheaper online, but could there be value add benefits to purchasing from you that an online store does not offer?<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Does your product offer any form of efficiency gain or added benefit? Can you justify it with real examples such as testimonials and worked examples\/results? If it does, you need to ensure that you articulate and deliver this message to potential customers.<\/p>

Try and stay away from long range forecasts. If it is going to take a few years to see the real value, this is not a compelling selling point in the current market.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Discounting is a common strategy to increase sales, but it comes at the cost of your margin. If you are going to discount, do it strategically.<\/p>

In tough economic times, it\u2019s common for the volume of products purchased by customers to go down. You can overcome some of this resistance by packaging items together and encouraging sales volume by offering a discount on the second item or on bundles.<\/p>

If you are going to bundle package, ensure you are not packaging low margin products and then discounting them. Packaging works best when you package products with higher profit margins or where you boost the sales volume of slow-moving stock by combining it with faster selling stock.<\/p>

You may like to think about offering a loyalty discount\/bonus to existing customers. The probability of selling to an existing customer is around 14 times higher than a new customer, so this could be a great way to boost sales.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

It is important to remember you are only as strong as your weakest link. If you have any weak links in your sales chain, you need to fix it.<\/p>

Help your team identify and capitalise on opportunities by giving them the training and structure they need to succeed.<\/p>
