Short conversational excerpt (YouTube) comparing sales to dating. Speakers discuss that effective sales resemble dating: asking questions, listening, leading with empathy, and bringing energy and enthusiasm; the exchange emphasizes focusing on the guest/customer rather than oneself.
You know, sales, I think, is a lot like dating. Hey, you go on a date with a woman, she knows you're interested. You know, I tell my. My son, he just turned 15, he's. I'm like, hey, you're going to ask her? He's like, oh, no, no. Like, dude, she want. She's talking to you. She wants you to ask her out. Somebody's talking to you. They want to get information. They want to engage, have their questions answered and do that.
Yeah. When you're getting into the dating world, for the most part, that experience, even as people who have been married for a very long time, they're aspects to sales that if we want to be able to achieve a certain outcome so that we feel good talking about making love to our wives in this context, there's a sale that needs to happen and we have to be asking questions. We have to be giving of our listening. We have to lead with empathy. There's ease of sales, which are energy, enthusiasm, and empathy. Because it ain't about anyone else other than your guest. It ain't about you.
Yeah, I love that energy, enthusiasm, and empathy.
