1. Rapport.
Help me, the customer, feel comfortable with you. The more comfortable I feel the more information I provide.
The more information I provide the more you understand my needs and wants.
The more you understand my needs and wants the easier it will be for you to sell me.
Be sincere. Nothing will turn a customer off quicker that insincerity.
2. Overview.
Help me understand what we’re going to do while we’re together today (assume this is our initial visit). I’m looking to purchase a new roof, you’re the rep for the roofing company. The overview would include the elements or the steps of the sales process.
EXAMPLE: “Teri, while we are together today I’d like to better understand what’s important to you when replacing your roof - such as the style, the color, as well as the budget you are looking to stay within. Next, I’ll measure the roof and show you the different options and packages we have available. And, finally, I’ll show you what we need to do while we’re together today to get started.”
3. Qualifying.

EXAMPLE: “Teri, have you ever had a roof replaced?
At that time what roofing company did you use?
Is there a specific reason you chose not to use that company this time?
How soon are you looking to have the roof replaced?
Aside from yourself is there anyone else that will be involved in the decision making process?
Is there a budget that you are looking to stay within?
How would you be paying for the new roof?
Cash, credit, or financing?, etc.”
4. Presentation.
Now that you’ve helped me feel comfortable, have identified the steps that will transpire while we’re together and qualified me on areas of importance, its time to provide a presentation that would include company bio, credibility, service, product line, etc.
5. Recap.
This step helps pull everything together by assuring you understand my needs and wants. Also, it gives you, the salesperson, an opportunity to clear away any additional questions or concerns that I might have, touch in on the benefits and features of your products, and allows you to show me why your company would be the best choice.

In direct mail lore, there's a rule stating that you can measure the success of your efforts by a minimum response rate of 1-2%. In other words, if you send out 10,000 pieces, you'll have a successful mailing if at least 100 recipients respond to your offer.

“Signature service” is a term that I often use to represent something that is fresh and unique to a customer’s experience with your business. All companies have “signature products” that separate them from the rest of the pack, something that their competitor lacks. "Signature service" is just that. Customer service that is unique and special; that when a guest leaves your restaurant they scratch their heads and go “WOW”. That my friends, IS what I call “Signature Service”.Most customers when they c
