Sales Message and Systems Makeover

New Arrival

Created 10 years ago in Sales & Marketing / Sales & Lead Generation

Every sale or user acquisition is behind understanding that person's motivations. There is no free money up for grabs. Knowing where and how to find the right people, how to effectively communicate how we can improve their lives, and hand-holding them the entire way until the deal is closed, is one of the most important skills to be able to sell successfully. For most people, sadly, it's also one of the least developed.

WE SHOULD TALK IF:

- You don't know why your potential customers are not responding to your sales efforts how you expect them to.
- You want to automate your sales efforts by having a clear communication and hand-holding process that makes it easy for customers to know why and how to work with you.
- You don't know where or how to start to get your first sales.
- You don't feel comfortable in a sales role, and would like to know of alternative ways where you can excel in bringing customers.

I help people and companies improve their sales message, processes and results by:

- Understanding human motivation and behavior, so their message rides the waves of human attention instead of trying to fight it.
- Framing and organizing their message by leaving out the clutter in order to maximize impact.
- Knowing where to find the people they need to connect with, how to engage with them, and perceive the common ground between them.
- Adapting their message to the medium, audience, and desired objective at each step of the sale.
- Detecting the business model's assumptions, finding gaps with the market reality, and updating the model.
- Identifying the sales' systems of the business, suggesting improvement iterations, and installing a "permanent beta" system thinking mindset.

ADVICE FOR A SUCCESSFUL CALL:
- Have a clear goal for what you hope to get out of the call
- Have specific questions ready
- Record and/or take notes of our discussion for future reference
- I'm not looking to join new projects, so come only for consultation. If we both think there's a bigger consultation scope worth exploring, we can discuss it via email after the call so you don't spend more money than necessary.

YOU NEED MY HELP IF... 1) You want to grow your sales or want to hire sales talent. I have bootstrapped many startups into profitability, and sold products and services (B2C and B2B) ranging from 10 to +15000 dollars. I've also gotten a deep understanding of how companies can prepare themselves to attract sales talent in an ultra-competitive job market (sales is the 2nd biggest talent shortage in the world, according to a 2015 Manpower survey). 2) You want to take a career leap forward (better job, make more money, have more fun, more free time, etc.). I have advised hundreds of people 1-on-1 on how to grow their careers in today's networked economy, and have founded two startups focused on professional innovation. HOW I DO IT: Everything we want in life is found in other people: customers, employees, jobs, partners, and more. Knowing where and how to find the right people, and how to effectively communicate how we can improve their lives, is one of the most important skills in a globalized and immediate world. For most people, sadly, it's also one of the least developed.

Carlos is an outstanding big thinker - and doer. He combines a strategic and visionary mindset with excellent execution and orchestration skills, making powerful things happen.

I can comfortably say that three months of mentorship from Carlos changed my life. He sees problems with a crisp, clear mind and shares ideas in a way that's brilliant in its simplicity. Every time I'd hit a wall, I'd walk away from a quick meeting with a completely new take on things. It's almost magic.

I feel super lucky to have had the opportunity to learn and work with him.

Ever since I first met Carlos, I’ve followed his writing and contributions online religiously; I feel that my writing, business acumen, and self confidence have grown from listening to what Carlos has to say and from the experiences he shares with so many people. Whether we talk about business strategy or personal life, I trust that Carlos will give me profound insight on ways I haven’t approached a problem to find the solution that I may have overlooked otherwise.

He is focused, dedicated and passionate about helping and educating people. Not everyone has the drive and conviction to bring their big visions to life, Carlos does and I look forward to seeing what's next!

Carlos helped me when I had no idea what I wanted to do but I knew my
current situation needed to change. He help me focus on the right
problems with concrete action plans week after week. His help directly
helped me land a new job with a salary increase and I feel great about
the decisions I made via his advice.

Carlos is a person of insight, positivity, and integrity. He's definitely one of the smartest people I know in social media and business strategy within the Gen-Y community, and anyone who gets an opportunity to work with him will see incredible progress mixed with a radical sensation.

Carlos thinks hard about business and life. He is not afraid to change his mind. And he has a refined bullshit detector. Add to these things a global mindset and fun personality, and you have a rising star who will surely accomplish big things in his life. I recommend Carlos.
