Closing a Sale

Closing a deal is an art. Make sure your sales team asks a closing question and does not just end with a script or presentation. This gives your customer a sense of authority. 

Remind your sales team to wait for the answer before closing. Prospective customers send important messages to the well-trained salesperson. 

Train your team to pay attention to nonverbal clues of displeasure and pleasure. These are opportune moments to relieve customer concern or excite them.

Some nonverbal clues worth watching:

  • Touching or handling the product. Testing or trying the product

  • Smiling, laughing or becoming more relaxed and friendly

  • Increasing eye contact with the salesperson
