How To Be A Sales Sore ThumbBy Kim Duke Everyone has heard the old expression "If you do THAT - you'll stand out like a sore thumb!" The Sales Diva is here to tell you that your goal in sales is to BE THE SALES SORE THUMB! Especially when you are leaving voice mail and e-mail messages for your customers or prospects. Imagine a phone. Imagine a computer. Imagine them full of so many e-mail and voice-mail messages they could explode. This is what your customer is living every day. In this Age of Technology and Convenience listening to voice mail and scanning through e-mail is two degrees away from being in Hell. In my former corporate life I received between 25-50 e-mail messages a day. Add this to the phone messages and you had one grumpy girl! Very few of the messages stood out - but they definitely received my attention if they did! Tease with a tantilising sales message.There are three kinds of people who leave messages. I love one kind and can't stand the others. The first kind of person leaves you a long-winded story of their entire life and never gets to the point. The second are extremely vague (think multi-level marketing people) and they don't get to the point either. The third kind I adore. They are succinct, detailed and they make me curious. In e-mail - make sure the subject line gets attention. Your customers should be interested in opening it up! Don't just send "Reply" back to a customer if it as an ongoing e-mail message. Write "Bob - I have an idea for you ..." or "Thank you and a suggestion ..." or "A question re: Your Shoe Sale ..." Be creative and get to the point in the body of your e-mail. End telephone tag forever by standing out.Leave a message that is either detailed with what you need or one that makes them curious ie/ "Jill, I have a question only you can answer. I will be in the office until 10:15. "Don't tell people you are around all morning, don't just say "Jack - it's Jane - call me." If you do so you are entering the merry-go-round of telephone tag and it's a dizzy ride! It will also waste precious time and energy. Remember: BEING a sales sore thumb is great - having a sore thumb from dialing and typing is a BORE.
