Sales is being radically redefined like never before. With buyers now in possession of unlimited information, online content is quickly becoming the dominant driver for commerce. Today anyone working in sales - and that includes entrepreneurs, business owners, doctors, and many others - needs to possess entirely new skills. Unfortunately most organizations are still using traditional selling models developed for a different time.
The News of Selling, based on the ideas in David Meerman Scott’s book “The New Rules of Sales and Service: How to Use Agile Selling, Real-Time Customer Engagement, Big Data, Content, and Storytelling to Grow Your Business” shows how smart businesses large and small are discovering new opportunities, strengthening customer loyalty, and mastering real-time selling strategies.
Scott, author of the #1 bestseller “The New Rules of Marketing & PR” (published in 26 languages from Arabic to Vietnamese), demystifies the new digital commercial landscape and offers inspiring and valuable guidance for anyone not wanting to be left behind.

A sales person is a tool to get your offering out to prospects and/or customers. It’s true we can control the offering and we can shape the message presented. But it’s the Sales person’s style, presentation and skills that will determine how the customer or prospect will feel about usIT’S NOT WHAT YOU SAY IT IS. IT’S HOW THEY SAY IT
SPIN selling technique is helping salespeople to gather more information and facts about the customers current situation, also discover the sales opportunities.
Closing: A Natural Step in the Sales ProcessBob Hafer
If you don’t ask for the order, you won’t make the sale
That statement is one of the basic truths of the sales profession. Because when you ask for the order you provide the momentum for a client to say yes. Though you may feel closing a sale is a magic moment, in reality, closing is simply following closing principles and then asking for a decision when you feel certain the prospective buyer is going to say yes. This fast-paced seminar teaches you how to ask for the order.

Top Five factors to consider before Purchasing a company
Top Five factors to consider before Selling a company
There are many activities and methods addressing business (project and strategic) planning and execution, however the planning cycle still remains flawed and sub-optimal.
-46% of business failures stem from misguided strategies
-More than half of all business projects are still failing
- One third of firms fail to achieve expected results from annual strategic plans
Leading organisations are getting in front of the planning cycle to positively influence project delivery and positive business outcomes with modern approaches geared to rapidly changing and complex environments.
Many disciplines purport to be the silver bullet to deal with these issues. The reality is that most businesses are just too chaotic to handle overly robust and formal techniques – but still want to ensure the right strategies and outcomes are achieved - and by design - not chance.History may look back at the evolving discipline of modern Business Architecture as one of the keys. For that to come true though, Business Architecture, as any methodology and framework, needs to be applied in a pragmatic and lean manner to be an effective tool for today's businesses.
This presentation, given by EA's Chief Architect, looks at Business Architecture and its journey – and necessity – to support a more agile approach to enterprise design.
- Business Analysis, Business Architecture and Business
- Design and where they intersect;
- What is the value of each?
- Where does the problem lie?
- What is currently working and what is failing;
- Where can we position the discipline to be the most effective in the organization, and have the greatest amount of impact on the strategic outcomes?
- What are the first steps to escalate the visibility and mandate of the discipline?
- What training is available and where does it get me?

Data science holds tremendous potential for organizations to uncover new insights and drivers of revenue and profitability. Big Data has brought the promise of doing data science at scale to enterprises, however this promise also comes with challenges for data scientists to continuously learn and collaborate. Data Scientists have many tools at their disposal such as notebooks like Juypter and Apache Zeppelin & IDEs such as RStudio with languages like R, Python, Scala and frameworks like Apache Spark. Given all the choices how do you best collaborate to build your model and then work through the development lifecycle to deploy it from test into production?
Why Data Science on Big Data?
In this meetup you will cover the attributes of a modern data science platform that empowers data scientists to build models using all the data in their data lake and foster continuous learning and collaboration. We will show a demo of Apache Zeppelin, Apache Spark, Apache Livy and Apache Hadoop with the focus on integration, security and model deployment and management.
Data Science at Scale DEMO
The demo will cover the Data Science life cycle: develop model in team environment, train the model with all the data on a Hadoop cluster, deploy model into production. The model will be a Spark ML model
Practical ML with Apache Spark
To deliver machine learning solutions data scientists not only need to fit models but also do familiar tasks data collection & wrangling, labelling, feature extraction and transformation, model tuning and evaluation, etc. Apache Spark provide provides a unified solution for all this under the same framework.
For example, one can use Spark SQL to generate training data from different sources and then pass it directly to MLlib for feature engineering and model tuning, instead of using Hive/Pig for the first half and then downloading the data to a single machine to train models in R. The latter is actually very common in practice but painful to maintain. Spark MLlib makes life easier for data scientists and machine learning engineers so that they can focus on building better ML models and applications.
We will discuss the underlying principles required to develop practical machine learning and data science pipelines and show some hands-on experience using Apache Spark to solve typical machine learning and data science problem. We will also have a short discussion about how Spark MLlib faces challenges from other machine learning libraries such as TensorFlow and XGBoost.
As a small business owner there's probably two things you want more than anything
else in today's economy.
More customers & more cash flow for your business!
However, you've probably come to realize, that's not as easy as it sounds today. I'm
sure this wasn't always the case.
Many businesses not long ago were booming during one of the biggest economic runs
this country had even known. You had as many leads and customers as you could
handle thanks to a thriving economy.
Your sales were skyrocketing, your employees were happy and you were on top of the
world, buying nice cars, investing in vacation homes in your favorite get-a-way
destinations, traveling the world with your spouse and family and enjoying the finer
things in life…as you should have.

Bestselling sales and marketing genius David
Meerman Scott is back with the long-awaited
follow-up to The New Rules of Marketing and PR.
In this book he looks at how sales and service are
being radically redefined like never before and how,
now, online content can be more targeted to reach
buyers one at a time instead of all at once. Just as
online content is the primary driver for successful
marketing and public relations today, online content
is quickly becoming a dominant driver for sales and
service as well.

In the days BEFORE REAL-TIME online communications…"
• It was very difficult for buyers to find independent information "
about the products and services that interested them.
• There was no easy way for unhappy customers to voice "
disapproval of a company in public.
• Both buyers and existing customers couldn’t communicate "
instantly with the companies they did business with.
• Customers had little say in the products and services they "
wanted to buy.
35. …therefore the OLD RULES of sales & service applied:"
• Sellers delivered only proprietary information such"
as their company’s white papers and research reports.
• The sales process was generic, and buyers needed to fit into a
one-size-fits-all culture.
• Buyers needed to ask the right questions.
• The seller had more knowledge and therefore had the upper"
hand in negotiations.
• Sellers had little incentive to tell the truth about their offerings.
• Cold-calling solicitations were among the most common "
methods for salespeople to contact prospective clients.
• The seller was in charge of the sales cycle, parsing out details to
buyers on the seller’s timetable.

• Because of the infinite amount of information available
on the web, buyers now have more information than
sellers and therefore buyers have the upper hand in
negotiations.

buyers, sellers must tell the truth about their offerings.

• Buyers actively use search engines and social networks
to find companies to do business with.
• The buyer is now in charge of the sales process, and
wants to buy on his or her own personal timetable.
• When a buyer is ready to buy, the company must
respond with lightning speed.
• Instead of causing one-way interruption, making sales
is now about delivering content at the precise moment
each buyer needs it.
• Companies must treat people as individuals.
• When buyers have valuable information at the"
click of a mouse, it is sellers who need to ask the"
right questions.

Finding the time to participate in"

need to make it an important part of your life."
If it is important to you, you don’t even"

And you can choose to participate"
in SOCIAL NETWORKS.
123. @dmscott

to exercise leads to failure and wasted"
money on health club memberships.
INSTEAD, make exercise & social media"

cut out television completely.

HOW TO STAND

130. @dmscott
The New Rules of Selling: How Agile and Real-Time Sales Grow Your Business Now
130
As a way to introduce"
this important concept, let’s turn our"
attention to your Twitter profile.
While each social network is different,"
the concepts of PERSONAL BRANDING"
are similar and can be carried over"
from one network to another.
131. @dmscott
The New Rules of Selling: How Agile and Real-Time Sales Grow Your Business Now
131
Most Twitter profiles don’t say enough,"
and most have LOUSY DESIGN.
While that’s fine if you’re just"
communicating with friends, if you’re"
using your Twitter feed for your"
business, you need to pay attention.
132. Twitter ID: (Mine is @dmscott.)
Choose an appropriate ID. Try to have a Twitter ID
that resembles your name so when people see you
pop up in their feed they know who you are.
Because there are hundreds of millions of people
on Twitter, you are unlikely to get your first choice
(or second or third for that matter), so you might
need to add a number to the letters.

Name: (Mine is David Meerman Scott.)
Use your real name. Don’t just default to your"
user ID, which so many people seem to do. "
And don’t just use a nickname like Pookie."
You can put your nickname in quotation marks
inside your real name if you want to. If you"
really care about your personal brand, you’ll"
want people to know who you really are.
134. @dmscott
Location: (Mine is Boston, MA.)
Use the town or nearest city that makes sense"
for you. While I actually live in one of the Boston
suburbs, my business is global so I use Boston"
as my location. Saying something cute like “Earth”
or “somewhere in Canada” turns people off who
don’t know you. Besides, the location is a good way
to make local contacts.

This is where you say something about yourself. As

Header image:
Your personal brand on Twitter
can also include a header photo

A header photo is a great way"
to show your personal brand,"

salespeople add an advertising
message to this real estate,"
but I think that’s a mistake"
and recommend resisting this
tendency. Adding your messages

detracts. Your header photo"

Photo:
If you care about your personal brand, you should use"
a representative photo of you on social networks. If you
don’t upload a photo, you’ll just be assigned the default"
by the social network, which makes it appear as if you"
are hiding. The default on LinkedIn is a creepy sort of
shadow image of a person, and the default on Twitter is the
image of an egg. The photo you choose to represent you
says a great deal about who you are as an individual.

While that’s okay for some, I do think it communicates that the"
person doesn’t like his or her real self for some reason. "
I definitely urge you to avoid using stand-ins for your photo.
I don’t think you should use your company logo instead"
of your photo on your personal social networks either."
I also suggest that you avoid the random images"
that many people seem to favor.
You know, things like their cat. Or Bart Simpson. Or a snowboard.
If you use these sorts of images rather than your photo,"
you’re limiting what you want people to think of you.

There are many choices when it comes to a photo to use."
You can use a casual shot taken by a friend."
This is a great option for many people.
But there are many different approaches, and each says "
something important about you.
Are you in a casual setting, such as at a restaurant?"
Or someplace more formal, like an office?
What are you wearing? A hat?
Is it an image of you taken on a vacation with a beer in your hand?
Or a formal head-and-shoulders portrait in business attire taken "
by a professional photographer?
Smile, or no smile?
How close do you crop?
While there is no absolute right or wrong about photos in social media, "
do keep in mind that each of these choices says a great deal about you.
