[SOLVED] Opening and Closing Sales Calls

First impressions are critical in the sales process. You are presenting yourself to others as a representative of your company. How you present yourself throughout the sales process will influence the buyer(s). Opening and closing sales, providing information for the buyer, and how you deal with changes will be the foundation for the seller/buyer relationships. Practicing various scenarios will help you learn more about how you present yourself to others. This 2-part Assignment will provide you with an idea about how to set-up, present, and close a sales call while dealing with changes based on the personal styles of the buyer. Read Chapters 6 and 7.
