These same people, however, would be more than happy to take inbound calls and talk to strangers who had called them.<\/p>\n<p>The answer to the challenge was easy then \u2013 get their phones to ring and get their email to ping. If you talk to anyone in B2B marketing they will probably say quite rightly that generating a consistent flow of inbound leads is not easy.<\/p>\n<p>We worked with our own team to develop a new strategy around this and worked to implement this strategy into our own business to prove it works and to gather some good data.<\/p>\n<p>What is this strategy and can it work for me? In simple terms the strategy involves leveraging the knowledge and expertise of the consultants, and position them and their company as SME\u2019 s (Subject Matter Experts). We then help them develop thought leadership content that buyers were interested in.<\/p>\n<p>We then help them take that knowledge and place it on their website in a way that can be easily found and ranked on Page 1 of Google \u2013 just the same way you found this article. This then creates a steady stream of self qualified sales leads who have already bought into the expertise of your consultants and keen to engage further.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s more unlike pay per click ads these articles create a steady flow of new leads that fuel future growth at no cost. Once the content is published that\u2019s it.<\/p>\n<p>No cold calls, no outbound phone calls of any sort. In fact, in some cases our clients are now closing deals via email.<\/p>\n<p>If this approach interests you and you would like to learn more please contact us for further details.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.klozers.com\/sales-training-for-consultants\/#contents\">Back to Table of Contents<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f66297d elementor-widget-divider--view-line_icon elementor-view-default elementor-widget-divider--element-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-global elementor-global-23936 elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"f66297d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon elementor-divider__element\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-rocket\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M505.12019,19.09375c-1.18945-5.53125-6.65819-11-12.207-12.1875C460.716,0,435.507,0,410.40747,0,307.17523,0,245.26909,55.20312,199.05238,128H94.83772c-16.34763.01562-35.55658,11.875-42.88664,26.48438L2.51562,253.29688A28.4,28.4,0,0,0,0,264a24.00867,24.00867,0,0,0,24.00582,24H127.81618l-22.47457,22.46875c-11.36521,11.36133-12.99607,32.25781,0,45.25L156.24582,406.625c11.15623,11.1875,32.15619,13.15625,45.27726,0l22.47457-22.46875V488a24.00867,24.00867,0,0,0,24.00581,24,28.55934,28.55934,0,0,0,10.707-2.51562l98.72834-49.39063c14.62888-7.29687,26.50776-26.5,26.50776-42.85937V312.79688c72.59753-46.3125,128.03493-108.40626,128.03493-211.09376C512.07526,76.5,512.07526,51.29688,505.12019,19.09375ZM384.04033,168A40,40,0,1,1,424.05,128,40.02322,40.02322,0,0,1,384.04033,168Z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c6db617 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c6db617\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">5.

This way they feel more empowered as they have chosen the content and by definition, the content should be more targeted and relevant.<\/p>\n<p>The only drawback to this is that this requires an experienced facilitator\/trainer who knows the answers to the Consultants Sales Challenges from memory and can articulate them without a PowerPoint. If the trainer has to stop the session to look up the answers in a textbook or slide deck they will lose all credibility.<\/p>\n<p>These workshops should have defined outcomes with action plans to make sure they are more than just a talking shop and deliver real impact for the Consultants and the company.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4cc214d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"4cc214d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"579\" src=\"https:\/\/www.klozers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Question-Based-Selling-1024x579.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-15870\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.klozers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Question-Based-Selling-1024x579.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.klozers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Question-Based-Selling-600x339.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.klozers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Question-Based-Selling-300x170.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.klozers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Question-Based-Selling-768x434.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.klozers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Question-Based-Selling-1536x869.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.klozers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Question-Based-Selling-1320x746.jpg 1320w, https:\/\/www.klozers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Question-Based-Selling.jpg 1749w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2f52534 elementor-widget-divider--view-line_icon elementor-view-default elementor-widget-divider--element-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-global elementor-global-23936 elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"2f52534\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon elementor-divider__element\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-rocket\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M505.12019,19.09375c-1.18945-5.53125-6.65819-11-12.207-12.1875C460.716,0,435.507,0,410.40747,0,307.17523,0,245.26909,55.20312,199.05238,128H94.83772c-16.34763.01562-35.55658,11.875-42.88664,26.48438L2.51562,253.29688A28.4,28.4,0,0,0,0,264a24.00867,24.00867,0,0,0,24.00582,24H127.81618l-22.47457,22.46875c-11.36521,11.36133-12.99607,32.25781,0,45.25L156.24582,406.625c11.15623,11.1875,32.15619,13.15625,45.27726,0l22.47457-22.46875V488a24.00867,24.00867,0,0,0,24.00581,24,28.55934,28.55934,0,0,0,10.707-2.51562l98.72834-49.39063c14.62888-7.29687,26.50776-26.5,26.50776-42.85937V312.79688c72.59753-46.3125,128.03493-108.40626,128.03493-211.09376C512.07526,76.5,512.07526,51.29688,505.12019,19.09375ZM384.04033,168A40,40,0,1,1,424.05,128,40.02322,40.02322,0,0,1,384.04033,168Z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-49b5814 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"49b5814\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">6.

In reality, this couldn&#8217;t be further from the truth as the most successful salespeople simply don&#8217;t do this because they know it doesn&#8217;t work and in many cases destroys any trust or relationship that they have with the prospect.<\/p>\n<p>In most cases, traditional <a href=\"https:\/\/www.klozers.com\/sdr-sales-training-courses\/\">Sales Training for Consultants won&#8217;t work<\/a> because the techniques they use go against the Values &amp; Beliefs of the Consultants. No matter how good the trainer is unless the content is based on actions that are congruent with the beliefs and values of the Consultant it will simply be a waste of everyone&#8217;s time and money.<\/p>\n<p>What will work however is if the training is designed to position the Consultants as Trusted Advisors to their prospects and the sales activities are aligned with positioning them as Thought Leaders in their Industry.<\/p>\n<p>The following sales tips help Consultants &amp; Non-Selling Professionals understand that Professional Selling is more about building trust and relationships than it is about \u201cClosing\u201d prospects.<\/p>\n<p><strong>To sell more consultants should focus on building TRUST<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>T = Time<br \/>R = Reliability<br \/>U = Unselfishness<br \/>S = Soundness<br \/>T = Truthfulness<\/p>\n<p><strong>Time<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Set Goals and manage your own time \u2013 be effective, not busy. Be respectful of your clients&#8217; time, turn up on time to meetings, prepare before meetings to get the most from them. Spend time with clients to help them. Focus your time on your best prospects.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reliability<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Get a plan and stick to it, sales plans, communications plans and account plans. Many sales are lost when you are back in your own office. Respond to every email within 24 hours, manage expectations and take ownership of problems and follow up.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unselfishness<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Listen, empathise and give, yes give, as in Emersons Law of Compensation. Stop trying to sell and start trying to help, have conversations, not sales pitches. Recognise when there is no fit and walk away \u2013 never force the sale. Pass on referrals and give recommendations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Soundness<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Become an expert in your field. Be the \u201cgo-to\u201d person in your industry that people refer others to. Create your own personal development plan and learn as much as you can about yourself, your customers and your customers&#8217; customers. Mentor, coach and help others.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Truthfulness<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Be true to yourself. Have those difficult conversations with family, friends, colleagues and customers. Losing some sales, losing some battles will help you win the war. Nurture and grow your integrity, self-respect and self-belief. Be authentic and true to yourself.<\/p>\n<p>These Sales Techniques are not glamorous, and they might not produce an overnight transformation however they do work. Together you will see these five areas form the basis of\u00a0<strong>TRUST<\/strong>. Selling without trust may be possible, but it is extremely hard work and will, without doubt, limit your success. In business, the antithesis of trust is a risk, and every Buyer, every CEO, every organisation will pay more for a solution that is perceived to mitigate risk. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.klozers.com\/how-to-build-an-outbound-sales-team\/\">Building and sustaining\u00a0<strong>TRUST<\/strong>\u00a0is the foundation of Mastery in sales<\/a>, although many of our clients have asked us to help embed these \u201cselling techniques\u201d throughout their organisation, not just sales.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2dbdb48 elementor-widget-divider--view-line_icon elementor-view-default elementor-widget-divider--element-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-global elementor-global-23936 elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"2dbdb48\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon elementor-divider__element\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-rocket\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M505.12019,19.09375c-1.18945-5.53125-6.65819-11-12.207-12.1875C460.716,0,435.507,0,410.40747,0,307.17523,0,245.26909,55.20312,199.05238,128H94.83772c-16.34763.01562-35.55658,11.875-42.88664,26.48438L2.51562,253.29688A28.4,28.4,0,0,0,0,264a24.00867,24.00867,0,0,0,24.00582,24H127.81618l-22.47457,22.46875c-11.36521,11.36133-12.99607,32.25781,0,45.25L156.24582,406.625c11.15623,11.1875,32.15619,13.15625,45.27726,0l22.47457-22.46875V488a24.00867,24.00867,0,0,0,24.00581,24,28.55934,28.55934,0,0,0,10.707-2.51562l98.72834-49.39063c14.62888-7.29687,26.50776-26.5,26.50776-42.85937V312.79688c72.59753-46.3125,128.03493-108.40626,128.03493-211.09376C512.07526,76.5,512.07526,51.29688,505.12019,19.09375ZM384.04033,168A40,40,0,1,1,424.05,128,40.02322,40.02322,0,0,1,384.04033,168Z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6b65937 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"6b65937\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">7.

There are exceptions to this when the Brand Power of the product or service is very strong, for example it doesn\u2019t take the salesperson of the year to sell Microsoft Technical Services because the power of the Microsoft brand has pre-sold most people before they go into the sales meeting and the product is Microsoft, not the Consultant.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>For Consultants who do not represent a big brand like Microsoft,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www2.deloitte.com\/uk\/en.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Deloitte<\/a>, or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bain.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bain &amp;
