• According to a study in Sales and Marketing Management
Magazine, two-thirds of sales managers claim that selling value
is the most difficult problem facing salespeople today.

salespeople fail to differientate their solution from the
competition.

8. According to Tom Reilly, author of “Value-Added Selling”,
there are 3 Types of Competitors & 3 dimensions of value:
3 Types of Competitors:
Equalizers:
• These companies want to be as good as everyone else in their
industry. They constantly try to close the gap between them and their
competition.
• If a competitor offers a unique product or service, they will soon
mimic it.
Differentiators:
• These companies want to be better than the rest and are constantly
looking for ways to stand out. They want to expand the gap between
them and their competition.
Equalizers:
• These companies rarely focus on the gap between them and their
competitors – they focus solely on the customer’s needs and wants.
• They defeat the competition by serving the customer better
Zing Consulting Group ©2011 | www.zingcg.com
9. According to Tom Reilly, author of “Value-Added Selling”,
there are 3 Types of Competitors & 3 dimensions of value:
3 Dimensions of Value:
Product / Service
• What does your product/service do for the customer? How does it
solve a problem for them?
• Example – you offer complimentary business services (fax, copy,
free Wi-Fi) for residents that work out of their home.
Company
• What value added features does your company offer?
• Example – you offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee
Self
• What do you do personally for the customer that makes you stand
out from the competition?
• Example – You are an expert on your neighborhood features,
including school information, entertainment recommendations, etc.

1. Make a list of a potential customer’s needs, wants and fears
2. Circle possible “pressure point” features (the items that would affect
their purchasing decision).

14. But, what if they say no?
What to remember about sales objections…
• Don't be scared of them!
• Objections are a sign that the prospect is serious about their purchasing decision
• Objections allow you to better understand the consumer and what they need.
• Objections can help you build a stronger relationship with the consumer
• Objections occur for numerous reasons – the consumer could be looking for more
information.
• Objections are just another step in the sale process – embrace them!
Zing Consulting Group ©2011 | www.zingcg.com
15. Sales objections show interest and enable the
salesperson to give more information to the
prospect.
T here are 3 types of sales objections:
Conditions
Stalls
True Objections
Zing Consulting Group ©2011 | www.zingcg.com
16. Conditions
Something that prevents the person from purchasing until their stipulation is met.
Example: “I need my roommate to see if before I can make a decision.”
Ask questions to determine the nature of the condition and try and schedule a set time to re-discuss the sale,
once the condition is met.
Example: “You mentioned your roommate would be in town on Tuesday, can we set up a time that I can give
you both a tour?”
Zing Consulting Group ©2011 | www.zingcg.com
17. Stalls
When the prospect is putting off making a decision
Example: “I want to think about it.”
Let the prospect know that you understand and accept their hesitation, but ask questions to find out what the
real problem is.
Example: “I understand this is a big commitment, are you concerned with the lease terms?”
Zing Consulting Group ©2011 | www.zingcg.com
18. True Objections
When the prospect has a genuine reason to make a purchase
Example: “I don’t have enough money.”
Let the prospect know that you respect and appreciate their objection and offer other possible options.
Example: “I understand our one bedroom is out of your budget. Would you be interested in being

5. Motivation through Competition:
These individuals gain a certain amount of satisfaction by
comparing their performance to that of others.
6. Motivation through Cooperation:
Individuals are motivated when they are cooperating with
others or if they believe they are helping others achieve their
goals.
4. Motivation through Recognition:
Individuals are motivated when their accomplishments are
recognized by others. However, unlike motivation through
competition, you do not compare their achievements to those
of others.
Zing Consulting Group ©2011 | www.zingcg.com
25. What kills motivation?
Motivation can be lost when an individual loses focus, becomes
discouraged, feels overwhelmed, procrastinates or isn’t where they
want to be (both professionally or personally).
Zing Consulting Group ©2011 | www.zingcg.com
26. How do you stay away from
motivational drainers?
Activity:
• Be specific with your goals – You will be more motivated to
“increase my sales by 5%” than by just “increase my sales”. 1.Write down 5 “career values” that
are important to you in your career.
• Have a plan of attack – Create an action plan, so you always
know what your next step will be. When you don’t know where 2.Prioritize those values in order of

important).
• Surround yourself with positives – Make sure that you
eliminate self-criticisms and negative thoughts about yourself.
Surround yourself with upbeat and enthusiastic people.
3.Write down how your current job
satisfies those career goals.
• Be committed – Commit to your goals on a continual basis and
limit distractions.
• Recruit – Recruit your family, friends and coworkers to hold you
accountable for your goals.
Zing Consulting Group ©2011 | www.zingcg.com
27. Motivation is also about personal accountability.
Personal accountability is doing what
you say you will do and being
answerable for your actions or lack
thereof.
Zing Consulting Group ©2011 | www.zingcg.com
28. Consider this…
Here is a story about four people named: EVERYBODY, SOMEBODY,
ANYBODY and NOBODY who all work at the same company.
There was an important job to be done and EVERYBODY was sure
that SOMEBODY would do it. ANYBODY could have done it, but
NOBODY did it. Now, SOMEBODY got angry because it was
EVERYBODY’s job. EVERYBODY thought ANYBODY could do it, but
NOBODY realized that EVERYBODY would not do it.
In the end, EVERYBODY blamed SOMEBODY when NOBODY did
what ANYBODY could of done.
Had EVERYBODY agreed to a common goal and SOMEBODY
volunteered to take ownership, ANYBODY would have been happy
to help complete the task and the results would have been very
different.

32. Word-of-Mouth or Referral Marketing
• 53% of Americans are highly
likely to believe in the credibility
of a recommendation from a
family member or friend.
• 51% are highly likely to pass
the information along to others.
• 48% are highly likely to make a
purchase based on these type of
recommendations.
*According to the American Marketing Association
Zing Consulting Group ©2011 | www.zingcg.com
33. Referral Marketing
Referral influence is greatest when buying a
product for the first time or if the products are
relatively expensive.
Word-of-mouth recommendations cut through the
“noise and fluff” of marketing campaigns. They give
you credibility without much cost.
According to Jacques Bughin (author of the McKinsey Quarterly),
there are 3 types of word-of-mouth marketing:
• Experimental – This results from a consumer’s direct
experience with a product or service that goes either
above or below their expectations.
• Consequential – This results in marketing efforts that
trigger word-of-mouth. Consumers receive the marketing
messages being put out to the public and pass them
along.
• Intentional – This occurs when marketers use celebrity
endorsements or public influencers to trigger positive
buzz about a product or service.

word-of-mouth marketing?

45. How do you know what people are
saying about you?
Online Reputation Management is the practice of
monitoring the Internet reputation of a person, brand or
business.
Online conversations should be monitored on a
continual basis to ensure you know what is being
said about your brand. However, due to the size
and speed of the Internet, it is a difficult process
that requires a variety of monitoring resources.
The first step to online reputation management is to
monitor the online conversations manually.
Zing Consulting Group ©2011 | www.zingcg.com
