A Becoming a Business Mentor I made a common mistake that most junior sales people make. I didn’t shut my trap once I gave him the proposal. I was so nervous that the only thing that quelled my anxiety was the sound of my own voice that kept droning on and on and on like an annoying empty gong. It was almost as if the silence begged to be broken by my voice and I couldn’t help myself. “And look how much we can save you on that 800 line,” I said. No answer. Long pause. “And the calling cards, too. It’s all there. Look at that, sir. See? See? That’s big savings.” No answer. Long pause. “Look at that. And the extra lines get the discount also. That’s even more savings, sir.” Long pause. Long pause. Long pause. More nervousness. “Did I tell you that our company was founded in . . .”Becoming a business mentor is probably one of the most rewarding and challenging things that you can do with your time. Helping those just starting out in business and giving them your advice from past experiences, building a friendship and becoming a confidante are just some of the benefits that you can get from being a mentor.However on saying all of this, mentoring is not suitable for everyone and certain criteria needs All of a sudden this quiet man finally said something, and it’s something that I’ll never forget. “Boy,” he said in a thick mountaineer drawl, interrupting me right smack in the middle of my enthusiastic babbling. “I done bought from ya ten minutes ‘go.

When you are on your next sales call, pay attention to how silence is used in the meeting: 1) After you present your formal proposal to your client, let them look at it. Let them be the ones to say something first. There is an old rule of thumb in the world of selling and negotiating that says whoever talks first loses. Let them bring up the questions and issues after you present it to them. If they don’t say anything, then just let them mull it over. They’ll ask you questions when they are ready. Don’t appear too anxious to be the first one to speak. 2) Use silence to convey a point. When you are talking to someone and want to emphasize a key point, pause right before it. Say it like this: “Bob, this is why I think you need to consider our product. (pause, pause, pause). It’s because of…” The longer pause gets their attention. 3) When you are asked a question, you don’t need give the first answer that pops in your head. Give them the right answer. And if you need more time to answer their question, say, “That’s a good question, Bob. Let me think about that for a second.” More than anything, you will be considered a true professional that is giving serious thought to solving their problems. 4) Anytime you are in a negotiation, when someone makes an offer to you, pause before you give a response.
