Below is the assignment I have for the course "The Art of Persuasion" I've never been in sales, so I need assistance in completing the assignment.
Step 1: Summarize the "Sale"
Think of a time you needed to "sell" an idea. This could be something big or something small. Answer the following questions:
- What were you selling?
- Who were you selling it to?
- Why were you selling it?
- Describe your sale's pitch.
Step 2: Analyze the Attempt
Answer the following questions:
- How successful were you in getting buy-in?
- If it went well, then why do you think that was? What did you do to make it successful?
- If it did not go well, then why do you think that was? What did you do to make it unsuccessful?
- How will you approach these kinds of opportunities differently in the future? What skills will you use and why?
