Web sites are good marketing tools, but we all know that even the best marketing doesn't close the sale!
In today's competitive sales environment, time is money. You cannot afford time delays in the delivery of sales material. Distribution and presentation of your virtual sales material instantly and professionally - while providing personal attention to the guest - can make the difference between the sale and lost business.
Today's service sales web sites have been built to reflect the web designer's technical goals and restrictions instead of the goals and needs of the sales professional. Traditional web sites do not provide the virtual tools, knowledge and training service sales professionals need to close the sale quickly and effectively.
Web sites need to become a tangable sales tool, allowing the sales professional to conduct an instant presentation of services and providing all information and tools needed to close the sale. Once the call is completed there should be no need to access e-mails, send attachments, word documents, web links, powerpoints and PDF brochures or resort to faxes and snail-mail to complete the inquiry or sales call (other then a proposal or follow up call).
The Internet offers many cost effective (even free) resources and tools to forward virtually unlimited sales information to capture prospective business! Web sites are good marketing tools but they do not provide sales professionals with the resources and education needed to streamline the service sales process to each sales and inquiry call.
The service sales industry must start analyzing its cost effective virtual options, organize its virtual sales procedures, train its sales staff and begin distributing and presenting sales information to include traditional sales standards to ensure an increase in profits and a decrease in annual marketing budgets. Further consideration, from a business perspective, must be given to the millions dollars of misdirected revenues in production and postage each year.
