Last July, our company launched a new print magazine.

As I thought about who might benefit from it, Mike immediately came to mind.

Then I remembered...

Years earlier, Mike had told me he'd never buy print advertising again.

So, trying to be a good listener, I never brought it up again.

Until that day.
I decided to ask him the same question.

And guess what?

He said yes.

That's when I realized I'd stopped listening the moment I stopped asking.

Good salespeople listen.

Great salespeople ask the same question because they don't assume the answer stays the same.

What's something you've changed your mind about?

Asking again is checking is circumstances changed, it is the the caring thing to do.

If you don’t ask someone else will 🤷🏽‍♀️ A no typically means "not right now," "I don't understand the value," or "I have unresolved concerns." so you need to keep asking, listening, reframing and most often than not, its a yes later 😉 awesome myth/truth!

So true! I love the analogy. Very relatable. That was exactly what happened to me yesterday during food tasting. I took the water with me anyway because I thought I could drink it in the car on the way to the airport! But I get it in the bigger picture on sales! It took us 2 years to device using a platform for webinar ❤️🔥

Lol quite true although it does bother me if they keep offering water when I already said no once! 😂 Unless some time had taken place! Then yes! In fact, I actually appreciate the thoughtfulness and consideration.
