What is Servant Sales?

Servant Sales is what happens when Servant Leadership and Coaching start a serious relationship together. A salesperson is first and foremost a servant. A servant to the company and the customer. 

I have always done servant sales, without realizing it. I never wanted to become a salesperson. This meant when I got the chance to do sales I had not adapted any magic tricks for selling. (using win-lose psychological tools to close a deal, telling white lies, etc.) My silver bullet was doing the right thing. I Only called someone if I believed my product would help them. I tried to discover within 15 minutes if we are a fit and if not, I would tell it and also explain why. This was a massive time saver and enabled me to be friendly with everyone. 

Over time always having the servant mentality proved to be highly successful and customers were super happy to be references for me. I knew I had discovered a different way of selling and that I truly enjoyed it. When effectively implementing the Servant Sales attitude a company can find a steady growth path. Forget quick wins and blindly following activities. Discover the real bottlenecks and make sales more FUN!

I especially enjoy working with tech startups and scaleups. If you are a founder of a startup, you should FIRST sell and then do anything else. How to get started? Talk to me 🤝 If you are a scaleup with an existing sales team then I can audit your sales process, and sales meetings and help you win more business without the need to sell sand to Sahara.
