Setting Sales Budgets by Chris Coltran - Consultant, Keynote Speaker, and Trainer.

Have you set your sales budgets for next year yet?  Have you set your sales goals?  Do you know how to set your sales goals?  Do you know how to set budgets?

If not, now is the time.  Salespeople are humans and they don't like it when budgets or goals are set for them, so they either set goals on their own, and set budgets for themselves or you have to set budgets for them.  Without a vision of the future, it is often times very bleak.  You have to know where you are going in order to get there.  Another quote I often use is, Man without a vision will perish.  Goal are one of the most important steps towards your personal and business success. 
People will be more likely to hit goals and targets when they have them.  If management or sales people they don't have goals, they will fall short of expectations.  This is not good and in this current economy, there is no time or money to waste. 



If you are looking for a consultant or outside expert to help you with your company or small business, or need help leading your sales staff or management team, I can help.  It is what I do every day.
If you are looking for a trainer or training for your salespeople or your management, you have come to the right place.  I am affordable sales training for your staff.  I am your sales training on a budget.  I can do live training or webinars or conference calls.

This philosophy suggests that when interacting with customers, service providers should prioritize kindness, patience, and understanding.

How much should you pay for a keynote speaker?

                               How much should I pay for a Keynote Speaker? The amount that speakers charge for their keynote speaking is completely up to the individual person. Most will try to get as much as they can, and some will set their fee schedule so they can keep their calendar full and working.

This type of presentation is typically geared towards their products, and it will tend to feel like a sales pitch and not an actual keynote.

The "R" in the Grandmother Philosophy

  The "R" in the Grandmother Philosophy stands for "Remember to treat every customer like you would your own grandmother." This final step encapsulates the core principle of providing exceptional care, attentiveness, and respect to each customer. It serves as a reminder to go the extra mile, anticipate needs, and create a personalized experience that goes beyond expectations.   Treating every customer like you would your own grandmother means showing genuine care and empathy in every interaction. It involves putting yourself in the customer's shoes, understanding their perspective, and tailoring your approach to meet their unique needs. This step emphasizes the importance of treating each customer as an individual, with the same level of care and attention you would give to a loved one.   When businesses treat every customer like their own grandmother, it creates an atmosphere of warmth, kindness, and respect. Customers feel valued, appreciated, and understood.
