Anyone Up For Some "Mixed Martial Arts" Selling?

Posted April 24, 2014

There are some who swear by the tried and true selling methods. Having sold for 31 years, I understand because I was taught that way.

There are others who feel that things like LinkedIn, Twitter, email etc is where the eyeballs have shifted to and then there’s people like me, who feel that it’s ALL good and they can ALL live nicely together, sort of a “mixed martial art” if you will.

That’s why I’m in a bit of jam right now.

I have a new online course launching on June 4th and God forbid an experienced sales rep thinks we are going to cover basics and they will reject the idea (even if they aren’t doing any of the things they think are basic)

On the other hand . . .

God forbid I call it something like a “Social Selling Course” then you have all the traditionalists getting their panties in a bunch because I just went all “trendy” on them.

So I got real fancy and decided to call it “Castain’s Online Sales Course” Simple, elegant etc.

Why you need this course . . .

Because things have changed out there!

Your prospect is now distracted by over 3,000 advertising messages per day (FastCompany Magazine) they send and receive at least 110 emails per day (Radicatti Group) they are interrupted an average of 7 times per hour (Wendy Cole Time Magazine) and after we account for all the meetings, phone calls and extra things on their plates (thanks to downsizing in the past 5 years) and the fact that people in general now have about a 8-9 second attention span (According to report released by the BBC) . . .

It’s now easier than ever for you and I to “Get lost in the sauce”!

The old ways, really aren’t working so good any more and that’s why . . .

We have 8 sessions waiting for you to help you stand out literally from the word “Hello”

“Sales 101” . . . I think not!

Traditional . . . Yes

Social Selling . . . You Bet!

Mixed Martial Arts . . .Y to E to the freakin S baby!
