How to sell anything (I need help)

[Cienfuegos]

I've asked this on the CNF Facebook page and got a really good response from Dakao. But I need more.

I work at an AT&T cell phone store (we sell phones, tablets, accessories, and Internet/tv). The issue is I'm bottom of the board most of the time...I'm a really good salesperson sometimes and not so good other times.

Like I'm awesome in selling accessories but when it comes to selling Internet or tablets I suck.

So any advice anyone has on how to be more successful I'd appreciate it!

Check out Tony Robbins info on MetaPrograms.  I think this is very useful to selling in various situations.

I just took the time to go through all 7 of them. That's really helped me take another look at the things my customers say to me and how I process it.

I know of NLP from a thing I did a few years ago...it was really new at the time.

This is awesome thank you Sonora!

From my experience as a sales person in appliances, Confidence and knowledge are key. 
If you know what you are talking about (Wich i think you do) and can tell the customers about with confidence they will trust you sooner and buy stuff sooner.
Confidence can be seen with your boddy language, are you standing straight, chest forward, do you smile? that kind fo stuff

Hope it helps a little

I think it is a kind of skill that comes with practice. There is a lot of points to mention and I think you have already heard about all of them. With a little practice you will see where are your weak points and till then just keep working on it. My first experience with upsales at one of the Assignment Writing Services was not successful too, but you can work it out

Coming from a very similar sales envrironment, I would ask you a few questions/comments for your process. 

1.  Would you buy the things that you are not selling well? Yes/No Why/Whynot? and what would it take for you to do so gladly?
2. Many times when selling objects that have alot of options a kind of pitch fatigue can set in and things we should describe with energy we pitch like a survey. "you want fries with that?" 
3. Have a coworker who excells at those things role play with you until you can emulate the language and the energy. 
4. Also (and this is not indicitave of you just somehting I know happens to most salespeople) don't sell with your wallet/value structure. What I mean by that is don't value your offerings based soley on what you would do. It is important to know their value, but its also important to let a customer determine the value for themselves. Often times features we weren't planning on become new enjoyments and reasons to keep coming back. 
5. Finally, breathe. focus on something fun that helps you. (I collect rejections) any customer will sniff desperation and it will nag at them and hinder their shopping experience. Accept that improving will involve lots of failure, tongue ties and rejection, but none of it is personal. It only reflects on your skill not your person. 

Go get em!
