How many emails did you get today
from people trying to tell you how to sell online?
That's not a "trick" question. There are thousands of people on the Internet
trying to tell you how to sell.
Have you ever asked yourself how many of them have actually sold anything
in the real world. . .ever? Not to mention
selling to niches.
Everywhere you turn you are reading, "target this or target that," or "niches
equal riches." Yes, niche marketing is important. The truth of the matter
is that ALL marketing is niche marketing if you are doing it right!
Back in the olden days
Sometimes we get so caught up in the "newness" of the internet that we
forget how business used to be conducted. I'm talking about back in the days
when sales people weren't afraid to admit that they sold stuff for a living
and actually went out in the world and met people and made sales.
What a concept!
Have you ever heard the term, "natural born salesman?" Or maybe it was,
"she could sell ice cubes to Eskimos?" There are people who seem to
have a natural talent for selling anything to anyone. They have no trouble
selling to a niche.
Learning how to sell anything to anyone doesn't require a magic wand. Nor
is there any "divine intervention" that determines that one person will become
a successful sales person and another will fail.
If you take a long, hard look at the really successful marketers online
you will discover that most of them sold stuff in the brick and mortar world
before they ever took their businesses online.
There's a real hidden message there if you think about it. People come
online, read the hype and think they are going to become wealthy overnight.
It just ain't goona happen folks!
Would you like to know the
real secret?
It's simple. Good selling is all about filling a need, satisfying wants
or solving a problem. The only thing you have to do is crawl inside the customers
head and figure out what those needs, wants and problems are!
You have to know your customers business as well, if not better, than the
customer does. And, you have to know how they think. A good
salesperson does their homework and they do it very well! This is the touchstone
to selling to niches.
That shouldn't be difficult. All you have to do is spend the next few years
learning about every possible type of business imaginable, learn how more
than 6 billion people on the planet think, put it all together and you can
make a sale. Not a very viable option, is it?
What if you could sell to them the way they want
to be sold?
You need to learn how sales professionals
sell offline to business niches. You need to learn what the wants,
needs and problems of specific types of business and you also need to learn
how to sell to different types of buyers.
Once you learn how to do that, then you can convert that knowledge for
use online and watch your sales skyrocket!

Your job is to learn how to sell them what they need and to learn how to speak
their language.

for it. Here are some real live examples:
| "In my sales career, which has spanned 35 years, I have attended
and taught many sales training classes. I would say that Patty has
captured the essence of what sales reps should take away with them.
My arsenal of knowledge now includes the years of her experience
doing what she does so well. Her pro-file tools are easy to understand
and create the enthusiasm we all need to make this a smashing success."

more to learn, I do have the tools to hit the ground running.
You're a great role model and mentor to have. I look forward to

"I was asking for an opportunity when I originally interviewed
within an industry for which I have NO actual sales experience.
Opportunity has come knockin'! Whether it rains or shines, I know
this much is certain - I've absorbed more information in one day than
I ever would have known my entire lifetime about sales and communication
skills in general.
Very in depth, informative and presented in a manner to where the
brain had no choice but to absorb.
Kudos and many thanks!"
