"Most salespeople stop at the end of the selling process. They go through the same old crapola of prospect, appoint, present, close, follow-up. That sales strategy will lead you to another sales job. If you want to build a relationship, if you want to get referrals - you have to become known as an expert or the expert in whatever you do."

In the age of "advertising deficit disorder," the great communicators in all industries who can bottom line sell their ideas the best will carry the day and succeed. Society is built on those who can market, educate and SELL the best - period! Case closed. Match over.

Ask any CEO or business owner to rank the #1 group of employees who are the most important to current and future growth and 99 times out of 100 they'll tell you it's the sales division.

Who Are The BEST Salespeople In The World? Here's a hint: They're under the age of ten and many of you have them. Ah, the light bulb went off in your head.

Children. Why? One, they ask a ton of questions. How many? Check this out:

- The average 5-year old asks 200 questions a day
- The average 20-year old asks 20-30 questions a day

Think about how many questions the average 40-year old asks in a given day. If I asked you for the top five questions you ask key prospects, would they generate curiosity and "Mind Capture?" Or would I walk away with little or no interest in what you're offering?

Two, they're creative. Children can whip out 10, 15, 20 or more reasons why they want you to buy something for them or have you buy from them. Sadly, the average adult has no clue how to use creativity to make the case for their ideas, product or service.

Three, they're not afraid of rejection. They fully expect that they'll get what they want and carry this "can-do" attitude with them. As we grow older we're often told by people around us and the talking heads in print, radio, online and TV to play it safe and to not rock the boat. While this is OK for certain areas within our lives, it's a dangerous mindset to have when you're livelihood depends on spreading your message to others.
