In this episode of The Sell or Die Podcast, we’re discussing the importance of following up with your potential clients and the process you need to have to make a sale. The truth is most people aren’t making the sale in the first sales call which is why your ability to follow through is everything to your success. Many people think following up makes them seem naggy or annoying but successful salespeople should be doing something before the sale to prime the prospect and/or doing something after to follow up with them.
In the episode, we’ll talk about the importance of following up with your prospective clients and how the process of doing so will close more sales.
Points we will discuss include:
Don’t be a salesperson that gives up after the first sales call, if you truly have passion for what you are selling be willing to go the extra mile and cater to your client’s emotional “why”.

In this episode of the Sell or Die Podcast, we are talking about a secret to sales that doesn’t often get talked about… ENTHUSIASM! Showing enthusiasm is absolutely essential for selling. No one wants to buy your product if you’re not enthusiastic about it! In the episode, we’ll show you how to channel genuine enthusiasm to boost your sales.
Some points we discuss include:
Of course, enthusiasm doesn’t replace having a deep knowledge and understanding of your product. You can’t just cheer something on but not know what you’re talking about. But you can use the deep knowledge you have to drive your enthusiasm! Because you know so much about the product and how it can help someone you can enthusiastically talk about it. We know this will make all the difference for you.

In this episode of The Sell or Die Podcast, we’re talking about uncovering the decision maker when it comes to closing a sale. We’ve all been there. You’re getting closer and closer to making the deal happen, and you think you’re talking to the person who is going to make that decision. And just when you think you have it, they tell you they need to run it up the chain. It’s super frustrating! What we want to tell you today is that when you ask the right questions, you can uncover who the decision maker is and sell to them much sooner in the buying process.
Points we’ll go over include:
Die hards, we want you to take personal responsibility for your sales. If you get close to a sale and you suddenly realize you’re not talking to the decision maker, don’t blame the customer. YOU didn’t find out who the decision maker really was. It’s on you to take ownership and learn from your mistakes so you can do better in the future.
To learn more about uncovering the decision maker in the sales process, be sure to listen to episode 539 of The Sell or Die Podcast.
