How to close a sale with twelve techniques that have been tried and tested, because closing sales is about the salesperson’s attitude as much as the sales skill. There is no doubt that sales cycles have gotten longer, and closing a sale is nearly a process in itself. Close rates are falling because many salespeople are focused on selling the wrong thing. They focus on only one aspect of the sale: You pay me this for that, or you give me this for that. A good place to start on how to close a sale is to first ask yourself: Why would anyone want to buy my product or service or have sales conversations with me?
