this time, do it differently. Reassure the client that he is getting a great
deal and encourage him to open up and share ideas. Open your palms and
unconsciously let him see you occasionally putting your palm to your chest
(this signifies honesty). Then try to reach that positive sales atmosphere
again and close the sale. 2.
Always
be alert to the signs the client is exhibiting. If the client shows interest
through his body movements, give the final sales blow and close the sale. The
client's body language may change from positive to suspecting. In this
case, take it easy, gather your wits, read your client’s moods, and try to
win him back. Always exhibit openness and sincerity. When the client crosses
his legs and arms, this is a warning signal. Use mirroring techniques
(discussed in the previous chapter). You must make every effort to earn the
trust of the client, so that you ultimately can close the deal. 3.
In
worse cases where you are unable to close the sale, try to be professional and
diplomatic at all times. Thank the client for listening and shake his hand with
sincerity. Sales cannot be achieved overnight and you generally win some and
lose some. Closing the presentation on a positive note will leave a good
impression of you. Who knows, he might be your next positive client at some
other time. Use your body every way you can in the
selling process. Always be enthusiastic. If you truly believe in the high
quality of your product or service, other people will be positively affected by
your enthusiasm. Body movements can convince prospects to become believers in
what you are offering.
