My manager told me that when I’m on the phone with a prospect or customer, someone was going to sell someone—either the customer was going to sell me on why he wouldn’t buy, or I was going to sell him on why he should buy. If possible, stand up a few times a day, or get in the habit of pacing while on the phone with a prospect or customer.

If virtual sales training was ever needed, this was the time. Without it, your prospects figure you’re not interested, and they tune out. It’s also my only way to make eye contact with many clients and prospects, so I’ve learned to live with it. Just gesturing gave me energy and brought out my personality.

The #1 challenge for most salespeople, and small business owners, is getting enough meetings with prospects for their product or service. Some people think the solution to this problem is “to do more”, send more prospecting emails and make more cold calls. We do not want more emails or voice mails from sales reps.

Video can be a powerful sales outreach tool — but only if the prospect watches it. As the number of videos sent out by sellers has exploded, prospects have become more ruthless about what videos they choose to watch.
