Bring Your Team Together During Meetings With These 3 Tips

Posted on by Mike Stromsoe

Business meetings are meant to bring people together to make the decisions that may determine the future of your company.

Business meetings are supposed to serve as a time for collaboration for the betterment of your business. They aim to bring people together through the process of brainstorming. But too often we find ourselves sitting in the conference room with no true progress or off on some inexplicable tangent. Follow these 3 tips on how you can keep business meetings engaging, relevant, valuable, and helpful in bringing the team together.

  1. Make a Great First Impression

The tone of the meeting is going to be set within the first few minutes, so it’s up to you to make it exciting. If you don’t have the momentum going, your employees are going to lose interest and it’s going to be just another monotonous meeting that drags on and on . . . and on. The opening remark should be an exciting short story or important question on everyone’s mind.

  1. Participation Station

If there is zero participation, the meeting will quickly become boring. Once someone speaks up, additional engagement is sure to follow and your team is likely to keep that engagement throughout the meeting. Encourage participation by asking questions directly to individual team members.

  1. Ask Everyone to Write Down a Goal

Each individual walking into the conference room should come in with a goal or question written down. One of the negatives in respect to meetings is that not every question or goal gets the attention it deserves, thus, losing interest from those individuals. If everyone writes down one goal or question they want dealt with at the end of the day, it will help improve the meeting as the necessary questions are raised and answered.

Meetings are an important aspect of improving business because employees are able to speak their opinions and share their views from the trenches.

3 Techniques You Should Use to Become a Better Salesperson

Posted on by Mike Stromsoe

Being a good salesperson has benefits that go beyond just selling at the office.

Even if your job title isn’t salesperson, it’s imperative that you polish up on your skills and become a better communicator to win at not only business, but at life as well. Whether you run your own company or are currently employed at one, there is a good chance that at some point during the day you’re going to have to do some sales related work. We all do some kind of sales, regardless of job title. Here are three good techniques you should use to become a better salesperson and close that deal.

  1. Always lead with questions

Leading with questions is a great way to start the conversation because of two things. For one, it will show you have some humility. This will always serve you in a positive way. Two, you’ll receive information that you normally would not have been able to get. To get these questions, do some research a few days before your meeting.

  1. Be a Master Problem Solver

The best salespeople don’t look at sales as actual sales, they look at it as an opportunity to solve a problem. Look for ways in which the company can improve, and reroute more of your time and energy to solving this problem.

  1. Change Your Sales Perception

There are many people who don’t understand the concept of what being a salesperson really means. To be a sales person you must first view this profession as a chance to help people and solve problems. It’s quite difficult to succeed in anything if you think the job is the worst!

Being a master salesperson is the best way to succeed in your business. It’s the way you convince people to go with your brand, rather than the competitors. It’s time to figure out how you can start earning more, working less, and enjoying life! Contact Mike Stromsoe’s Unstoppable Profit Producer Program to do just that!
