At the same time it carries some key similarities to keep in mind the core KPIs and agendas of the Sales Talk.

The following are the key differentiators of a success-full sales talk.

#1 Exhibit Expertise in the area of selling 

A core knowledge of the sector, domain, product and the pain point you are addressing is the key contributor to any sales talk. You lead that you are conversing with should get to know that you know about the pain point and have the solution to help out with the same.

#2 List Common Challenges

Listening to your lead and addressing the situation helps a sales talk gain momentum. Properly defining the problem statements and situations faced by your lead. The listing of the challenges can help you drive the conversation to the closing situation in your own way. Old school methods of leaving out the challenges is out of the window.

#3 Engage with a Question

A Quiz is was more interactive than a boring lecture or a monologue. Try adding questions in the sales talk to get to know more about your prospect and the problems that they are facing. It also helps in the case of cross selling and up-selling of services.

#4 Focus on your product

In the end the main deliverable is the sales of the product that you are offering to your prospect/lead. So try keeping the core of the conversation centred around the product.

#5 Look at your marketplace

Current situations and the prevailing conditions give you an opportunity to customize your sales talk for better engagement and conversion chances. Rather than picking up any old example from the history ty focussing on the present and the future.

#6 Engage Immediately

As you see your prospect listening to your points, try to engage back with the prospect to drive the conversation further so that no one will feel left out in the conversation.
