PRICE
Price is an excuse for my sales skills are not that good.
Price is an excuse for my inability to prove my worth.
Price is an issue because salespeople let it be an issue.
Price is the best part of selling. It’s where weak salespeople die and great salespeople make a profit.
Price is the difference between short term transaction and long term relationship if value is the driving reason to purchase.
When service is needed, the price that was paid is forgotten. All thatmatter is response. That response sets the tone for the next purchasewithout respect to price. Therefore, do not sell price. Sell service.
