Hi! It's The Sales Mastermind

Welcome, Welcome, Welcome (closing tips and tricks)

Published about 2 years 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.

Hey, 👋 Scott from The Sales Mastermind here. Today’s edition only takes 4 minutes. Being a manager is simple, but not easy. It’s about expectations, support, and accountability. Today we’ll cover: Storytime Chaos Expectations Storytime I currently coach two first-time sales managers. Both are/were excellent sellers who became “managers”. One is a founder who was the only seller in a ~15-person agency. And, for now, he will continue to sell as founder-player-coach. The other was the business’s...

Hey, 👋 Scott from The Sales Mastermind here. Today’s edition only takes 3 minutes. When in doubt, ask Will It Make The Boat Go Faster? Today we’ll cover: Storytime Will It Make the Boat Go Faster?
