How Do I Sell My Expertise?

How should a Doctor, Lawyer, Accountant, or other Professional Service Provider sell their services?

Your patients and clients have no way of knowing how good your expertise really is. They do not know if your diagnosis is the best and most thorough, your motion is the most creative and effective, or your tax return is the most economical and audit-proof.

YOUR Unique Selling Proposition

What makes your product or service unique?

This subject is talked about in sales training constantly. But, it really needs more attention than that. Because, without it you are paddling upstream while your competitor is flying overhead.

If you cannot demonstrate and articulate what sets you apart from your competition, your competition will probably win the race. So how do you accomplish or earn the distinction you deserve?

Selling With Leverage

Is it ever appropriate to use a bribe?

When you’ve “got the goods” on someone and you want a concession from them, is it ethical to use that information to your advantage?

My new favorite TV show… Meet Nate Ford, a former insurance investigator that spent his professional career dedicated to the company that he recovered millions in stolen goods for. This same insurance company would refuse a medical claim for his son that would take the life of the innocent child.

What’s YOUR Selling Range?

While Fishing for Sales, Do you fish where the fish are or do you cast your selling net everywhere?

YOUR Selling range is the area where your target customer is located. It is how far away from your business base of operation you will travel to deliver your product or your service. Or, it is how far away your customer will travel to your place of business.
