The 9 Chill out steps to C Level Selling

Written by: Paul Butler

Article Overview: How many times have you thought about engaging with the CEO, then when it comes to making the call you bottle out and call another point of contact lower down the chain, sounds familiar. I know the feeling.

The 9 Chill out steps to C Level Selling

Always remember the following tips:
Be creative with your approach.
Be positive, confident and fearless.
Prepare your power questions in advance.
Look very very smart all over.
Think strategic, review their mission statement and recent press releases.
Talk about increased revenues and how you have helped other companies.
Research their business.
Think win win.
Do not give up trying to get the appointment.
Seek referrals from existing CEO's that are using your products/services.
Network to establish high level contact from business to business associates to help you arrange the meeting with the CEO.
Remember they are just like you and me, just know your business and benefits and have the guts to do it. Win these babies over and your on a home run.
Have fun, regards, PJ

2 Forums Updates - Many of you have been writing in suggesting that on my website and in my newsletter we include the link to the actual forum post and not just the name of the post and a link to the Forums home page. Well, after looking into it I'm pleased to announce that this feature is now available. Thank you everyone for the suggestions! We've also added names for members based on how much they post. Level one is Newbie, Level 2 is Intern, Level 3 is Employee and so on... There are 10 levels in total. I'm looking forward to seeing how everyone does! Keep the suggestions coming - they are great!
Level 4 - Manager - Looks like I'm the first to Level 4! I'm a Manager!
Re: THE SECRET TO SUCCESS IS ALL IN YOUR HEAD...RIGHT NOW!!! - Hey Barry, [quote="Barry Sarner":ev3dumxj]"Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other one thing." - Abraham Lincoln WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS STATEMENT ???[/quote:ev3dumxj] It's true on two levels. Level 1 - Doing something for the first time to succeed. Level 2 - Coming back from failure and not resting until you've regained success. The scares maybe deep. The wounds tender to the touch. But it will always be man's resolve or lack there of that defines the limits he is willing to go to, to gain or regain succeed. Books, audios, videos, courses, seminars, webinars, & etc. are important and I can't get enough. But nothing can take the place of what a man must decide to do, deep down within himself, if he wants to succeed.

Updating your status - It's an interesting idea! Has anyone seen a mod for phpbb that will let us do this? The closest I have seen is something that will let someone edit their rank - so instead of it showing Level 1 - newbie, etc you can put your own message in.
