Listening & Empathy in Sales
By Jeff Beals
A few quick thoughts on the importance of listening and empathy in the sales process:
If you don’t ask the right questions, you might be operating under flawed assumptions.
When establishing a business relationship, focus on the other
person. Listen with intensity.
You can’t fully connect with your prospects until you can see the
world through their eyes.
When doing business in a different culture, don’t simply adapt
to it; embrace it.
Sometimes your success depends on your ability and willingness
to relate to people who are very different than you.
Making someone feel comfortable in your presence is one of the most basic requirements in developing a profitable client-provider
relationship.
