People and organizations that are trying to ‘sell’ something are becoming very noisy and annoying. Wouldn’t you rather come across their product in your regular course of activity? Maybe they are active on Twitter and provide some useful data for you that gives you a connection rather than walking around with a target on your back as a prsospect.

Sure in the end they want you to purchase their product but wouldn’t it better if you were able to come to that conclusion on your own because their solution is good for you based in a decision you made rather than being coerced into buying?

That’s why selling is dead. OK, at the very least it’s in the business ICU because it is not healthy.

Thanks for coming by.

Of course, there are many consumers that just fall for it and get sold. And that is unfortunate.

In our business, we want to build long term relationships. I’ve never been a hard core sales person. I just put the info out there and our price. If it sounds good, they buy. If not they don’t. I don’t call them back twenty times trying to convince them.

cd :O)
