Closing Technique 1: Invitation Closing in a Sales Presentation

This presentation tip is in the category:  The Perfect Sales Presentation Series

I have read many books about sales techniques.  I personally found Brian Tracy’s series of sales book the most useful.  In the book Be a Sales Superstar: 21 Great Ways to Sell More, Faster, Easier in Tough Markets written by Brian Tracy, it had a good discussion about Invitation Closing.  I will hereby share with you my personal summary of that section in this article.

Invitation closing is considered to be the most basic, logical and pressure-free type of closing technique.  It could be applied in almost any sales occasions. 

You can simply follow these steps to do an invitation closing:

1. Ask your prospective customers whether they have any questions.  Answer all their enquiries.
2. Ask your prospective customers if you are making sense so far.  Is there anything that requires clarification?  Solve all their concerns.
3. Simply ask your prospective customers to give it a try.
4. Remind your prospective customers that you will take care of all the details.

As long as your presentation makes sense and could fulfill your prospective customers’ needs, closing shouldn’t be a problem for you.

I personally enjoy using this technique because it won’t make you appear as very hard-sell.
