The best was to handle price is to do a Worth Analysis and focus on what it is worth not on what it costs. Outside of that I have listed 10 replies to help in in this area.

Sales Forecasting

Forecasting Future Sales
What would you say if I said I could take you
to a time and a place where you could control the Future. Would that excite you?
Well now is the time and now is the place.
Why? Because the sales that are coming in today have nothing to do with what
you have done today.
They are the result of what you did or did
not do yesterday.
If you are a farmer and you want a good
harvest in summer then you know you have to start now.
No point waiting until harvest time to
discover you have nothing to harvest.
A good farmer knows he needs to plough the
fields sow the seed, water the plants and keep the crop healthy to reap the
benefits.
Farming is a process and so is selling.
Great sales people and great Sales Managers
understand that the skill is in doing
the right Sales
activities today in order to forecast the
sales of the future.
In very simple terms, No seeds no crop.
Keep up the good work and take control of
your future.
Best regards.

An M.O. T For Your Sales Team
Sales people need a wide range of skills to be effective and
successful in their role.
Below is a list of core competencies for Top Sales People. As
you know in Sales everything counts. If your Sales people are going to produce
outstanding results you need a Sales Team that scores ten out of ten in all
areas.
Why not get your team to score themselves against a list

honesty and emphasise that you want to give them the very best support in the
most relevant areas.
You may even get the high scoring members to cover a topic
at the next Sales Meeting.
.Telephone Selling.
.Prospecting

.Rapport Building
.Questioning

You can also focus on areas of need during Field visits and
one to ones.
Hope this help. Why not share with a friend.

When Do You Close The Sale
03/01/2020
When do you close?
You only close when your customer is ready to say Yes. How do you know when they are ready to say yes to the big question? It is when they have said yes to everything else.
You can think of closing like a room full of doors. The doors are called things like the Price door. The Specification door. The Delivery door. The Warranty door. The After-sales door.
When the customer says “leave it with me I’ll think about it” they are leaving the room via one or more of these doors.
The Sales Persons job is to Close all the doors.
A simple way to do this is to use what we call a Trail Close or a Summary Close.
Involve to solve.
Get the customer involved in the decision making with options and questions. For instance
What would be your ideal solution?
Would you like this specification or this specification?
Did you want to Buy. Hire, or Lease?
Use trails closes such as How does that sound? How do you feel about that? What are your thoughts on what we have covered so far?
Are you happy with......?
If the customer is not happy with a detail then this door is still open and you can repackage the offer long before you ask for an order.
If the customer is happy on this, then this door is closed and you can move on to the next part of the sales process.
Remember you cannot close the Sale until all the doors are closed.
Trial closing achieves three things:
It tells you where you are in the sales process.
It tells you when to ask for the order.
It increases your conversion ratio.
This is one of most important thing you can do to improve closing techniques.
