Hi! It's The Sales Mastermind

Welcome, Welcome, Welcome (closing tips and tricks)

Published over 1 year ago • 1 min read

Hi, and welcome!

You’re getting this email as a new member of The Sales Mastermind newsletter.

Before we go any further to make sure you get these emails, if this landed in SPAM or the Promotions tab make sure to move it to the “Inbox”.

​

How this works:

  • For the next few days you’ll receive welcome emails with some of the best sales tips, tricks and ideas for “founders who sell, but aren't *sales*people.”
  • Every Sunday I send out 1 hyper-actionable sales idea you can use in your very next sales call. The email is never more than 4 minutes long.
  • If you’re not interested in sales ideas (or just hate email), unsubscribe at any time. But be aware, this first week I’ll send all the systems you need to sell more than you ever thought possible.

​

Let's begin

Today we'll start with how to close more deals.

Here are 5 newsletters specifically around closing:

  1. Before they buy, you need to know What You Sell​
  2. Get your buyers to sell themselves, Drop a Really Bomb​
  3. If you want the business, you need A System for Closing​
  4. Using Pricing to Close the Deal​
  5. The close starts at Discovery​

Want a bonus-hidden-invite-only Closing Technique not available anywhere else. If you like what you see, reply “Bonus” to this email.

​

Once again welcome,
Scott

​

PS If you're a founder who sells but is currently not selling enough, hit reply or book a call. I read every reply.

I help founders who sell, but aren't "sales"people. Are you open to one hyper actionable sales tip per week, useful for your very next sales meeting and consumable in 4 minutes or less?

Hey, 👋 Scott from The Sales Mastermind here. Today’s edition only takes 3 minutes. The first hire in any function is always the hardest you'll make for that function. That holds doubly true for sales, as the job is inherently not within the seller's control (buyers decide when and from whom they buy). So far this year, I have hired eight sellers to join founder-led sales org. And I have seen consistent near-errors to avoid when hiring your first seller: Wrong Experience Being a successful...

Hey, 👋 Scott from The Sales Mastermind here. Today’s edition only takes 1 minute. I’m still recovering from my wedding, so this week is a round-up of some previous editions focusing on alternative lead-generation strategies: Any outreach must target a pain your buyer recognises and is motivated to solve. Make sure it passes the Sunday Night Test. Next, ensure that your lead generation is sustainable. Try the side door approach of starting a podcast. Partnerships take time, but they always...
