Selling as the way to Make Money

There have been so many changes nowadays with regards to Selling. Traditionally selling can be done in three ways. One is by advertisements that include fliers and brochures, news and magazines. Second is via face to face negotiation and the third is via telemarketing or phone calls. Through these ways of selling you may easily get a sale on the spot especially the face to face negotiation.

Bonding and Trust.
This also creates bonding among the seller and the buyer which in effect there will be a partnership due to trust and loyalty. Buyers or clients may also enjoy of asking favors or discounts aside from the standard prices because this is where negotiation works. Negotiation may come at one time or may recur as per order. This can be a very challenging job of the Customer Sales Representative because they always give credit on all aspects of the seller from the voice up to the looks and negotiation skills and this is what they call the “total package”. During this time you may not be able to reach the quota if you really don’t have the right skill to selling.

Latest Trends in Selling.
There comes a very big shift of the ways as to how a business may prosper and grow. Selling has shifted to outsourcing and that does not require a very stringent screening and evaluation of the qualifications of the seller. Outsourcing only requires employees who can speak English and knows computer operations. Yes outsourcing cost cheaper than maintaining the traditional way of selling. It speeds up the job and shortly it reaches the goal. Therefore, the traditional employees are really fit to the job with regards to qualifications! If you’ll evaluate both you will see that the traditional way of selling is much more advantageous but the only problem now compared with business outsourcing is that business has already gone with the trend of which is the computer age.

Internet and Traditional Selling.
With online Telemarketing and Virtual Sales Assistant, though they spend less with actual selling experience, they fail to realize that they also spend on recruiting and training, news and advertisements, sign up commissions. If we are going to add all expenses, it will show a very slight difference of the selling expenses. The only problem with traditional salesmen is that they can not sell to clients from other parts o the world and on the other hand online Telemarketing Call Center is far faster reaching clients though the use of latest technology like e-mail, chat and VOIP.

Wouldn’t it be more successful if they are going to combine the two and at the same time finding the right competent qualified people who are masters of selling trained with outsourcing skills? In this way business will be very successful and since the company has already chosen the right people then there will be no more budget needed for the continuous recruitment and training, sign up bonuses and more.

Realizing and studying the right thing to apply for the business is the task of a Sales Manager. Hence a good manager will be able to arrive at a right decision after coming up of an idea of merging the traditional way and the current outbound telemarketing process as a way of reaching customer and gain profit in the age of internet technology.
