Warm TipClick****↑****"FMCG Distributor Professional Consulting"**to learn more about marketing and distributor internal management. You may not produce, but you must sell! So, let's understand what sales is and what irresistible sales is. First, the essence of marketing is exchange; sales is using exchange to satisfy both parties' interests and realize value. Ideal marketing is based on insight into customer needs, through effective communication, exchanging value with customers, and achieving self-selling of products. In 1960, Tom Monaghan purchased a pizza store called "Dominick's" in Michigan, thus beginning his business career. When Tom wanted to expand his business, the previous owner of the store would not let him use the original store name. So, he had to come up with a new name, and an employee suggested Domino's Pizza ("Domino's"), which he adopted. When Tom originally purchased the "Dominick's" pizza store, the previous owner only gave him 15 minutes of marketing training. After that, he operated the store himself. By 2004, he owned more than 7,000 pizza stores, with annual sales reaching $4 billion. What exactly enabled him to grow an obscure pizza store to $4 billion in revenue? The reason is that he implemented an "irresistible sales" strategy! Second, marketing is a voluntary exchange behavior; voluntariness is based on equality and trust, allowing customers to come voluntarily to exchange. Mark Joyner, a former senior U.S. intelligence official, was the hottest sales guru in the nation in 2006. He is not only skilled at obtaining intelligence information but also an expert at understanding customer psychology. He can empower salespeople with strong abilities, making them unstoppable in front of customers. From an intelligence perspective, people typically take only three seconds to make a judgment when faced with any piece of information—no matter what kind of customer you face, usually they will only give you three seconds! What should you do in those three seconds? This is undoubtedly the key to the success or failure of all sales! Mark Joyner tells us that before making any purchase decision, almost all customers will have a silent conversation in their minds. From the salesperson's perspective, no matter what deal you hope to close, you must first resolve four questions in the customer's mind: What are you selling me? How much does it cost? Why should I trust you? What can your product actually bring me? Answering these four questions, that is, clearly telling the customer the benefits they will gain, will make your sales unstoppable, and the customer will immediately open their wallet and sign the order! How exactly should you provide the answers? After in-depth analysis of companies such as Domino's, FedEx, Columbia Records, Fox News Network, Mattel, and Nordstrom, Mark Joyner concluded that any irresistible sales process essentially has three characteristics: It must bring high returns to the customer; It must allow the customer to verify whether your product or service is trustworthy; It must use facts to prove that you can indeed fulfill your promises. Furthermore, marketing is also a behavior that satisfies people's needs. The above three characteristics are indeed the most fundamental needs of customers, so Mark Joyner found that companies with these three points usually find it easier to open customers' doors. For example, in 1960, Domino's was a small, unknown company. It is said that someone commented their pizza was like "cardboard." Ultimately, Monaghan's sales strategy of "delivered in 30 minutes or free" propelled the company to the throne of "Pizza King." Upon careful analysis, the author found that Domino's sales strategy contained all the elements of "irresistible sales": It brought high returns to customers—"hot, even slightly burning pizza"; It allowed customers to verify its credibility—with just a watch, anyone could check whether Domino's fulfilled its promise; It also used facts to prove it could indeed fulfill its promises—Domino's even risked car crashes to deliver on time. For your company, how should you make attractive promises to customers, establish a verification standard that customers can immediately accept, and ensure you can fulfill your promises? I hope everyone can find the answer soon! -------------------------------------- Like this article?
