How can I be a better sales person.?

Question

I'm a Party Lite consultant and I have trouble getting people to have party's. What can I do to be better?

Answer 1

believe in the product and be knowledgeable and confident in what you sell

Answer 2

Could you perhaps get things started by holding a party at your own home/residence first to get them interested?

Perhaps a day long event, where you invite as many people as you can possible invite to come over at anytime during that day.  Just make sure you have enough refreshments to last if they all show up throughout the day.

If this isn't an option for you, perhaps you can find a friend or two to host a party and then invite everyone you can.

Make it fun and exciting, with party games, door prizes and lets not forget music that makes you want to get up and dance.  Nothing outlandish, volume or lyrics.  Keep it motivating and captivating.

When people are having a great time, they are less likely to bulk at the idea of throwing a party of their own.  That's how I did it when I was "pushing" Tupperware some many years ago.

Answer 3

I can tell you this, there is a saying "leaders are born, not made", and I think it holds for "salesman". To have the "gift" of being a salesman is just something one is born with, hence I am an accountant.
