Ability to spot the top professional is more and more critical your company. As In today's complex business world, the rules of selling have changed. Success doesn't mean you should have right product and price. Instead, success means being able to understand the very real, very complex problems you face and sort through all the available alternatives. And the right salesperson should be able to help you do so and to create a solution that you would not have been able to come up with on your own.

So how will you spot top sales professional ???

Adherence to Task and Patience

idea posted by Makrand Bhave Marketing & MICE, WIZCRAFT International

A good salesman is the one who believes in his task at hand and has the virtue of patience to follow it diligently.

A person who knows his product well and can rattle the salient features  is easily the person who has the basic quality to be a good salesman. But what makes him a better salesman is the virtue of patiently adhering to the task at hand and following it diligently to its end! Patience in attending customers who have a lot of questions and particularly attending those who swear by the competition with positive attitude can make the person a better salesman!

Choose a man with Patience as his virtue and a person who believes in his task as your salesman!

Yes markand you are right here that a good sales man should be more patient, and more so while where a customer or the client is having more questions than ever, if he is patient enough and pursue them then he is a very good sales man.

Sales professionals ask lot of questions

idea posted by Vijay Nadar Sales/BD Manager, TCS
Sales professional asks you more and more questions which you have never asked yourself to acquire the information they need to come up with efficient solution. whereas the traditional sales people tell stories about their solutions and not mentioning the superiority of their company's brand, history and reputation.

Thats very true Mr.Nadar, if you are confused what you want then you will land up selecting a wrong product. A professional one will help you finding out what exactly you are looking for by asking you lots of questions and recommending you the right product.

who Identifies needs & wants of customer related to our product

The right sales person first indentify needs & wants of customer related to our products and then he present his products advantages and applications according to customers needs & wants which motivate the customer to buy our product.

Sales professional diagnose your problem

idea posted by Vijay Mishra Sales/BD Manager, Cybage Software
When a sales person launches into a description of his solution without first establishing a clear understanding of your situation, be wary. Sales professional never assumes that they or you understand the very real, very complex problems you face. Sales professional questions and diagnosis the problem, perceive all the ramifications of that problem and then he is justified in making recommendations.

Creates trust

idea posted by Sivakumar P Sales/BD Manager, Tavant Technologies
If you feel that you are comfortable in communicating with the sales person then you have found the right salesmen for you. He will not rush you, pressure or manipulate you. Whereas other sales person will create a mistrust and pressure you to buy.
