In this episode, Steve and Pru discuss the topic of closing in sales. They define closing as the final step of the sales process where the customer agrees to place an order. However, they also emphasize that closing is not just about getting the order, but also about getting commitment to the next step in the sales process. They discuss the importance of always having a next step and continually seeking commitment from the customer. They also explore the reasons why salespeople sometimes fail to ask for the next step, such as fear of rejection or appearing too salesy. They provide tips for effective closing, including using a summary close and being authentic in your approach. They also caution against talking yourself out of a sale after the customer has already said yes. Overall, they stress the importance of clear communication and agreement on the next steps in the sales process.
