Selling Contracting Services - 101

INTRODUCTION:

Sales and Advertising are essential in operating a business, obtaining a job, and making money. Too many contractors and others are very good at their jobs, they may even be considered to be 'experts' at what they do, but if they cannot promote their services to others, it does not put money in their pockets.



SALES vs. CONS:

There are plenty of con-men out there in the world, and some make out quite well financially, but do you really want to 'cheat' people or do you want people to respect you and source you and your product? Sales is a technique about how to provide a service or product to a person that has wants and needs, but is uncertain about if you are the person that should be supplying his or her wants and needs.



This guidebook will help you to help him or her eliminate that uncertainty.
