75 Powerful New Sales Actions

In sales as in life, we tend to choose the same habitual actions or reactions – even when they have failed to work for us in the past! This particular form of insanity can keep us stuck indefinitely. Here are a few steps to get you out of that rut, along with a list of potential new sales actions:

1. Get honest with yourself. It is only be becoming aware of what you are currently doing that you can replace it with a more informed choice.
2. Choose a new action to replace a habitual one; a new word can trigger a whole new attitude and open up surprising new opportunities. For example, how different does unveiling a new feature feel as opposed to just telling someone about it.
3. Experiment with these new actions by trying them in the different “scenes” of your life, before applying them to important sales calls.

Here is a list of 75 potential Sales-related actions to stimulate your imagination. Try one on for size!
