U- UNDERSTAND THE BUSINESS ECOSYSTEM

K- Knowledge of own product and that of competitors
•Who are your competitors?
•What you need to know about your competitors?
•Learning about your competitors.
•Hearing about your competitors.
•How to act on the competitor information you get?

WHO ARE YOUR COMPETITORS?
Don't just research what's already out there. You also need to be constantly
on the lookout for possible new competition.
You can get clues to the existence of competitors from:
•local business directories
•your local Chamber of Commerce
•advertising
•press reports
•exhibitions and trade fairs
•questionnaires
•searching on the Internet for similar products or services
•information provided by customers
•flyers and marketing literature that have been sent to you - quite common if
you're on a bought-in marketing list
•searching for existing patented products that are
similar to yours

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR COMPETITORS?
Monitor the way your competitors do business.
•Products or services they provide and how they market.
•Prices.
•Distribution & Delivery.
•Brand and design values.
•Innovation.
•Staff numbers and the calibre of staff that they attract.
•Technology -aware and offer a website and email.
•Who owns the business and what sort of person they are.
•Annual report - if they're a public company.
•Media activities - check their website as well as local newspapers, radio, television and any outdoor advertising.
How they treat their customers
What they're planning to do

LEARNING ABOUT YOUR COMPETITORS
Are they getting more publicity than you, perhaps through networking or sponsoring events?
Websites can give you good tips on what businesses around the globe are doing in your industry
sector.
HEARING ABOUT YOUR COMPETITORS
Speak to your competitors. Phone them to ask for a copy of their brochure or get one of your staff
or a friend to drop by and pick up their marketing literature.
It's also likely you'll meet competitors at social and business events. Talk to them. Be friendly -
they're competitors not enemies. You'll get a better idea of them - and you might need each other
one day, for example in collaborating to grow a new market for a new product.

HOW TO ACT ON THE COMPETITOR INFORMATION YOU GET?
Draw up a list of everything that you've found out about your competitors, however small.
Put the information into three categories:
What you can learn from and do better?
What they're doing worse than you?
What they're doing the same as you?

R- Relationship with Various Stakeholders
The key to building a strong stakeholder relationship is communicating effectively with all stakeholders.

Strengthening stakeholder relationships
•ASSESS THE STRENGTH OF THE RELATIONSHIP.
•BUILD STAKEHOLDERS TRUST IN THE ORGANIZATION .
•PAY ATTENTION AND RESPOND TO WHAT STAKEHOLDERS SAY AND DO.
•DEMONSTRATE COMMITMENT TO STAKEHOLDERS.
•SATISFY STAKEHOLDERS.
• MOVE BEYOND AN EXCHANGE RELATIONSHIP TO A COMMUNAL RELATIONSHIP.

I – Invoke a close/commitment with every call
There are three reasons why salespeople don't Ask for Commitment.
•They don't plan for it. They fail to set a Commitment Objective.
•They miss Buying Signals that tell them when to ask.
•They don't have a procedure for it.

In sales we need to fan the flames of the sale and move it forward with
small, yet treasured moments of commitment.
How do we gain these moments of commitment?
1) Commitment from the sales person to the next action.
2) Getting customer commitment to a specific course of action.

4 Ways To Be The Predator In The Sales— Not The Prey

4 Ways To Be The Predator In The Sales— Not The Prey
The predator’s eyes is located on the front of its skull, and it sees
with incredible clarity, especially in the dark. Once it locks its
eyesight on its next victim, it won’t lose sight until it strikes.
The prey’s eyes is never located on the front of its skull — only on
the side. It doesn’t have vision — only sight. It lives in fear, ready to
run at the slightest sign of trouble. Success for the prey is just to live
another day. Success for a predator is a winning strike and a
celebratory meal.
They both can see, but only the predator has vision, while the prey
simply has sight.

Four ways to become a predator.
•Set a vision for your professional career and company, and set annual goals that get you to your
vision.
•Don’t worry about the market — stay aggressive and focused on your goals. Stay optimistic.
•Stay hungry. A predator’s hunger and fear of starvation is what fuels its passion to hunt. A
predator’s fear of failure becomes its drive toward success. The prey is afraid to die, and that fear
leaves it paralyzed and increases the chances that it will die.
•Make sure that each kill, or sale, you make builds confidence for the next one.

SALES BURNOUT
An extended period of time where someone experiences exhaustion and a lack of interest in
sales, resulting in a decline in their job performance.

Sales rep burnout can be caused by any number of factors:
•Every sales conversation or review focuses solely on numbers — getting prospects to buy,
closing deals, filling the pipeline, etc.
•Customer needs and exciting new initiatives are tossed aside as reps scramble to hit quota.

Avoid Sales Burnout
1. Build a Culture of Learning and Teaching
2. Put the Customer’s Needs Front and Center
3. Set Aside Time for Feedback and Idea Sharing
