Here are 5 tips that will help you in mastering the skill of smart sales
Understand the Work & Work Requirements
- Before bidding on any project, ensure that you understand the work and requirements to pitch a better plan to your client, increasing the chance of getting the project.
- You can take references from similar past projects. By this, you can get an idea of the project’s scope and the potential risk during the execution.
- If you have yet to gain experience, you can take guidance from senior contractors in your community.
Understand your Client
- Try to understand your client completely. Building a good understanding between you and your client will help you negotiate with the client quickly. You have to negotiate with the client so that you get the project and your project profits are secured.
- You have to understand the client’s priorities and expectations and get to know whether the client has any preferences except pricing so that you pitch the project plan accordingly. Also, by understanding the client’s priorities, you’ll be able to execute the project according to the client’s expectations, and your client will be satisfied with your work.

Understand your Competition
- In any business, keeping an eye on the competition is a must. While bidding or applying for any project, you should always know which other contractors are also applying for the same project so that you can pitch your project plan with unique propositions that your competitors lack.
Build a Connection with your Client
- To take on more projects and grow your business, you should always try to make a positive connection with all your clients.
- Whenever you do meetings with your client, always arrange tea, coffee, or snacks because it is easier to make a connection when you eat or drink together. That is why businessmen or politicians often arrange their meetings during lunch or dinner.
- Always respond to clients’ messages and calls to build up trust with your client, and chances of getting the project will increase.
Make your Prospective Client Speak to your Previous happy Clients
