1. Focus - Find your focus. Surround yourself with podcasts, books, audio and video from subject matter experts. There are many free resources.
2. Be curious – ask questions about the person, company, or industry at the first meeting. Many people "show up and puke" at their first business meeting.
3. Active listening – listen to check understanding. Listen to and confirm your message. Actively listen and ask questions based on what you learn.
4. Do Your Research – The best way to earn credibility and trust is to demonstrate a deep understanding of your customer's world.

7. Time Blocks – Create time blocks on your calendar to dedicate the rest of your day for exploring, following up, and more.

What's the best way to improve your sales skills?
Short answer: Knowledge, confidence, interest and most importantly the art of timing Is required.
Whatever product you sell, you want information. You are always well-informed to answer any questions about the product, even if it is your own.
You must also be confident in your words, body language and overall presentation. It is essential to inspire and sell confidence in your product.
The product requires some interest. I found that the more interest I got in something, the more time I spent on it. Interest in your product is also very important because you don't need a pitch to sell and you're always ready to pitch to any audience.
Timing surpasses all of the above. If you can get customers at the right time, you can sell anything. Timing is very important, so hopefully you can even sell God a Bible. Timing is defined as a specific point in time. I would also like to say that timing is the right place, the right environment, the right environment, the right mood, the right weather. You can always ask your customers for a convenient time and they will give you an honest answer.
