How to request the order or its signature ?
Closing skills refer to the ability to convince a prospect to accept the offer we have made. This usually occurs in the final stage of the sales or negotiation process and requires a mix of diplomacy and assertiveness. A mixture of active listening, communication and persuasion. Adapting your approach based on the fact that no two prospects are the same will make you even more effective.
There are many techniques to effectively close a deal. Some are best suited to reassure the hesitant person, others can help them organize their thoughts and reach their own conclusion. Combining our skills with the most appropriate technique will increase our probability of success.
