In reply to So, no fear, then you talk to the client, posted by Phil on July 17, 2002, at 10:55:43
Phil,
The way that I understand your scenario is:
1.The client is with a co. for the past 25 years
2.Durring that time, he replaced his co. with the co. that I represent, but then replaced my co. back to his co. due to poor service.
Could you tell me how this meeting was established between me and the client? If I know that, then I can answer your question better for the restablishment to my co. is contingent on the reason that the client has a meeting with me.
Thanks,
Lou

Straight cold call. His wife agreed to the meeting but he was upset. He was happy where he's at. Someone else set the appointment at your co.

Phil,
The way I understand this appointment is that someone from the office set the appointment for me. I have a few questions.
1. What caused the client to accept an appointment?
2. Why is the wife agreeable to the appt.?

I'm wondering if fear is fear is fear, how come the circumstances matter (rhetorical question).
If it's a cold call, the salesperson won't have this info about the motivation for setting the meeting and why the client accepted, etc., and if it is a phone call, probably same thing. From the salesperson perspective, so far all we know about this approach for selling is dealing with client's fear is necessary, so maybe you will tell us how.

I am concerned that we might get off-track from the sales info.

By off-track, I mean get away from the topic of how to make sales, and onto an unrelated topic.

I know that if the postings get off-track, I will lose patience for going through them.

I also lose patience going through multiple posts that contain only a sentence or so.

there is not really any sales-faith info to learn from. Learning about sales-faith could help people.

When the wife accepted the appt she was drunk and she knew it would make her husband mad. I have no more details. That's the scenario.

No, not a plastic surgeon Lou. I think my posterior will survive just fine.
I do however see my pdoc monday, which might be a good thing.
