Replying to [Morna]: Well first off what kind of products are you looking to sell and your personality has to be polite and friendly. In business it's not always that easy, most major skills involve ambition, passion for success, a sight of leadership and management and knowing when you make mistakes and how to fix them and also thinking outside of the box (if you know what that means, basically being creative or innovative).

1.know what you are selling and who you sell to and where they are

2.learn knowledge of your products and the features of your competitiors' and leading brands and your products' merits and defects

3.be creative to find possible buyers through yellowpage, komp *, alibaba, tradekey, ebay,google, whatever you can find and try to make calls to contact them and get their email address if they confirm they're interested in

4.be clear with your customers' relation: who's the most possible, who's less possible, who's already a client and when and what for you contacted them last time, track them regularly without offending (as said in the previous post, always be polite and understanding)

5.think ahead of your buyers' thinking and help them finish purchasing with the most convenient and effective way when you quote price, recommend products and close a transaction

6.never promise what you can't do and be aware what you can do, always do your best to help your clients

7.act as a  respectable one when respect others; concern about the benefit and feeling of both parties--your company's and your clients'

Be a outgoing person that people like. Look at yourself in the mirror every morning and ask yourself  this question, "Do I like me?" If you like yourself and not self-centered people will like you and the sales job is 50% done, now you just apply the rest.

You have to master the art of selling.  There are basically 2 types of sellers - (1) the sales person, and (2) the closer.  You have to learn to become a closer, because a closer makes sales.

Characteristics of Successful Salespeople

What separates successful sales people from everyone else? I believe that most successful sales people, in virtually any industry, possess the following characteristics:

1. They are persistent. Selling or running a business for a living requires a tremendous amount of persistence. Obstacles loom in front of us on a regular basis. But it’s what you do when faced with these barriers that will determine your level of success. I believe it was Brian Tracy who once said that a person will face the most challenging obstacle just before they achieve their goal. The most successful people in any industry have learned to face the obstacles that get in their way. They look for new solutions. They are tenacious. They refuse to give up.

2. Successful sales people are avid goal setters. They know what they want to accomplish and they plan their approach. They make sure their goals are specific, motivational, achievable yet challenging, relevant to their personal situation, and time-framed. They visualize their target, determine how they will achieve their goal, and take action on a daily basis.

3. Great sales people ask quality questions. The best sales people ask their clients and prospects plenty of quality questions to fully determine their situation and buying needs. They know that the most effective way to present their product or service is to uncover their customer's goals, objectives, concerns and hesitations. This allows them to effectively discuss the features and benefits of their product and service that most relate to each customer.
