Do you find yourself making these kinds of assumptions?
- ?I lost the sale because my price was too high.?
- ?I know exactly what my customer wants.?
- ?I can't hold a member of my team accountable for the delays in our project because she won't like me if I do.?
- ?I don't delegate often enough because I know I can do the work better myself. ?
These assumptions may be correct. However Cheap Jordan Shoes , they also might only be partially right or they might be absolute bunk.
The problem with assumptions is that we are certain they are true. We unquestioningly believe, for example, that if we ask a customer about their needs, we look stupid (shouldn't I instinctively know their needs?).
Also, making assumptions can easily lead to a negative outcome in our dealings with customers. For instance, I go nuts when a salesperson starts solving my problems when they haven't asked me about my situation. I know I am not alone here.
Listen to yourself this week as a mini-test. If you are doing more talking than asking Cheap Jordans , you're probably making a lot of assumptions. If your opinion is front and center and you are not curious about what someone else is thinking, then you have definitely crossed the border into assumption-land.
One way to stop making assumptions is to ask a lot more questions.
Here are five powerful questions that can help you check out whether an assumption is true, and, in the process, connect more effectively with your customers.
Notice that you cannot get a one-word answer to the above questions. The art of selling is to have customers explain, at length, what their situation is, and what they want to do about it. It is not about you blabbering on about your products and services.
To develop the asking-questions muscle, start your questions with the following key words: What, why Cheap Jordan 4 , tell me, describe, explain.
To build muscle, you'll need to practice everywhere. Look for at least one opportunity a day to engage someone in conversation. You can pick anyone: family, friends, customers Cheap Jordan 6 , colleagues, peers, superiors, strangers, cabbies, waiters Cheap Jordan 1 , or the guy next to you on the bus. Try to pick a topic that the individual can address for at least five to ten minutes, and try to keep your opinion to yourself, even if you have strong views.
Just ask more questions, and see where the conversation takes you.
Have fun with it! You will be taking steps toward opening up your mind, recognizing the assumptions you make, and Cheap Jordan 10 , most importantly, working with customers in a way that they value.
