Selling System VS. Philosophy

/in , , , , , /by

On this episode of The 2X Podcast, I jump into having a selling system vs. having a sales philosophy. I discuss 5 Elements of a sales methodology and then give you a philosophic approach you can bring to that element.

Sandler, SPIN, Challenger, it doesn’t matter what selling methodology you go by, they all have their own flaws. While it’s great to have a system on how to usher your prospect through the sales process, I want to give you a substitute attitude and approach.

Staying Detached in Startup Mode

/in , , , , , , /by

I received an email recently from a listener who was in distress. His email was very similar to a lot of emails that I receive from people who are looking for help. He’s starting a company but he’s having a hard time remaining detached from the deals he’s working on and he’s far from having an abundance mentality.

On this week’s episode of The 2X Podcast, I’ll give you some ways you can implement both Detachment and Abundance in your world, no matter what stage you’re in. Whether you’re starting a company or starting a new career, you can maintain both of these principles, and I’ll tell you how!

Send Bill a voice memo with a question to [email protected] to have him answer it in an upcoming episode.

/in , , , , /by

In this episode of The Advanced Selling Podcast, veteran sales trainers and podcast hosts Bill Caskey and Bryan Neale discuss a question that came in that has rarely been discussed on the podcast, “How Can I Motivate My Team?” The guys walk through several different areas of motivation that can either inspire or hold back your sales team.

For you sales leader listeners this is a good opportunity for you to think about your team in a slightly different way and what truly motivates them.

If you’re interested in getting some more information about how you can assess your team’s motivational tendencies, send us a email to [email protected] with the word FEEDBACK in the subject line and we’ll get in touch!

Episode #503: When is Persistence a Deficit and not an Attribute?

/in , , , , /by

In this episode of The Advanced Selling Podcast, sales trainers Bill Caskey and Bryan Neale address a deeper subject of persistence. Often times we can become overly persistent, and it will cost us big money in the sale cycle.

The guys also realized they’ve been calling on the same prospect and they both lost the deal, which adds material for this topic. They discuss some ways to handle the rejection and possibly even learn from the experience.

If you’d like to get your question answered on the podcast, send us an email to [email protected] with a voice memo attached, and we will get it on the air.
