What exactly do you do when you get your best selling results? 1st principle of self-coaching: 'Know yourself'.

One of the most interesting 'homeworks' that my clients have done is to answer this question (and its variances):

• 'What do I do when I get my best selling results?'

I (and them) am amazed on the impact that the answer(s) to this question produce in their performance and results.

You see, sometimes happens that they start to forget who they were when they executed almost perfectly and/or how they closed this and/or that account. And when they forget, they start to panic and thinking that they need another training, that something is wrong with them or that they are not sales reps anymore. Far from that, when they answer this question, they are surprised with the amount of information that is revealed: the moods that they have, the techniques that they used, the courage that they showed up, the strategies that they designed. The best part is that now that this information has been revealed, they have more resources for a 'come back'. You see, sometimes the problem is one of memory.


It is better when they answer the question while in the 'coaching' session, with a coach.
Why? Because I ask questions that can bring more from the experience. Almost the complete experience and from there, we apply to present situations to better the future.
