    • Best Practices – The volume of things we have to ‘get right’ to win a sale can be daunting. But selling, at its core, is a very simple thing. We have to persuade people to make decisions in our favor. When we adopt some best practice principles, our selling becomes more consistent and our success rate rises. On this page we present some best practices to review.
    • How-To – As sales people we spend our lives learning new skills and sometimes needing to brush the dust off of old ones. Every sales is different, every customer unique. On this page we remind ourselves of some of the skills that might have become rusty or there might be something new for you here.
    • Real Stories – We all win and lose. But how much time do we spend reflecting on why we got the result we did? Do we ever really discover just why it was we lost? And do we know what the ‘real’ decision making criteria was for our wins? In this blog area we discuss wins and losses and the lessons learned.
