You might think that talent and native skills are all what you need to succeed in sales. In spite of what most people believe, selling is a science. Native abilities can help you to feel more comfortable in salesman position, but first comes learning.You have to build and permanently grow your knowledge andtechniques.

By the consequence, having some questions or concerns related to your product, he is really interested to find out if your product fits his needs. He will come to you to tell about his questions and concerns. Be prepared to welcome him in silence, selling is not about talking, it is firstly about listening.Pay attention to his questions or concerns.What are his likes and dislikes?Is he motivated by your product price or he perceives the value ?How your product fits his desire for status ?Listen to him is like listen to your market.When is your turn don't start answering, better ask what he means by every question. Make him speak and listen what key words he uses for explanations.
