Knowing your products should be a major part of your personal development plan. If you don’t know your products, you are doomed from the start. Know the products and what they are made of. If someone asks if the food or cleaning item you are selling has a particular ingredient in it, you have to be able to tell them the truth not just what you think they want to hear. Do your research before you start selling the products.
You have to know what health issues your products help manage. Does that vitamin help control high blood pressure or improve eyesight? Believe me when I say someone will ask and you need to know these kinds of answers for all your products. Learn every health issue that every product addresses.
You need to know how much your products cost. If someone asks, you need to give the right price. Not only do you need to know your prices but you also need to know your competitors prices and be able to make adjustments in your business when their prices are lower than yours.
Delivery can be a tough subject. You have to know what you can and can’t do as far as shipping. You don’t want to tell a customer you can have their products on a certain day and then the process takes longer than you thought. You have to know how long it takes to get products from where you are to where ever they are. It is better to give them a range of dates saying that their products will arrive sometime during those days.
Sometimes we get carried away in making the sale that we just don’t think about shipping. Another shipping concern is shipping cost. How much is it going to cost to ship the products to a customer a few miles away and to the other side of the country? Does it matter how big the box is? Can you get a special rate on shipping with a certain company? Do they offer insurance? Shipping the products in a manner where they will arrive to your customer in one piece can be as important as making the sale.
In my opinion a promise is a verbal agreement that should not be taken lightly. If you make it a habit of making promises you can’t keep you will get that reputation and no one will trust anything you say.
Selling is the main part of your business. You need to know everything there is to know about your products and services you offer in order to close a sale and have a successful home based business.
