Sales Breakthrough!

I had lunch with a friend on Tuesday that I think directly lead to my breakthrough on Wednesday.  His comment was:  Maybe you need to do some informational interviews to better understand the market....

Brilliant!

I finally had my first REASONABLE sales call on Wednesday.  (I won't call it good until they ACTUALLY become a customer.)  The key is to get a hold of the right person and ask good questions.

They will screen me....but I also need to screen them.  If they have no power to buy...If they have no need for my product...or don't see VALUE in the things I have to offer....it is a waste of breath to go any further in the conversation. 

Asking good questions helps me get there fast. 
I am feeling MUCH better about doing sales now!
Hopefully things will go well tomorrow!!
