My many year career in sales and marketing continues to impress upon me regularly just how vital good, thoughtful listening skills are. I carry those skills into my Mentoring for SCORE plus a deep understanding of the various channels through which products or services can be presented or sold to the end consumer, which small business owners may be considering to expand their reach or to enable their success without selling or hiring a sales team. Partnering with distribution organizations, manufacturers reps or with synergistic businesses (you scratch my back Ill send YOU business too) can relieve many of the challenges of scale (via THEIR sales channels) that business founders grapple with, and I look forward to leading SCORE clients in that discussion where applicable. Of course, other Sales and Marketing topics can be discussed as well because regardless of the channel (direct or through others), sales tactics, pricing, training, prospecting and closing all share the same ethic. If you have a product or service you need to launch or boost your Sales, reach out to SCORE. And if your method of sales is via Social Media, look for our webinars on that to increase your knowledge of how to boost your views and success. Don't wait, start moving forward faster! I have been a SCORE Mentor for 4 years and have presented to local colleges, helped well over 100 SCORE clients and work closely with the SBA and Chambers of Commerce accelerate business success. Best of success to YOU!
