As mention on our last sales mentor topic, we will now go unto the details of having a very convincing sales presentation.

Five Basic Sales Mentor Guidelines on Sales Presentations

Today is Father’s day, and I’m up on my computer to do a follow up on our current sales mentor lesson, which is about sales presentations.

We all know, that as sales people a high quality sales presentation will certainly help you close the deal but I’m surprised to learn that there are still many sales people that take for granted the importance of sales presentations.

Sales Mentor - Closing the Sale using Visual Aids

For today's sales mentor lesson we will now talk of the effectiveness in having a good presentation material to ensure a salesperson closes the sale.

To tackle this topic we need a little background in Psychology. Don't worry I'm not going to talk about parts of your brain or any Psychology concepts to make you understand this topic.

All you need to know as a salesperson is this; when you target audio 15% of the person's attention is with you; if you use audio with proper diction and voice stress you are able to target a preson's attention by 45%; and lastly if you use audio with stress and include visual aids in your presentation 95% of the person's attention is with you.
