Episode Highlights
00:28 - One of the simplest ones that everybody's used to is the one that we hate, transactional selling. That's when I'm just telling you, "Hey, you want to buy this? Hey, see this iPhone? It splices. It dices. It does this." That's the guy that we see on the infomercial that we don't want to be. We don't want to be Billy with the squeegee thing. We don't want to be Billy that can scrape the stuff off the frying pan to show it to people. That's more transactional selling. I have to get above it, all my information on you, in order for you to buy something from me right now. I don't care what you think. All I want you to do is to hear what I'm saying. That's transactional selling. Used car dealers, a lot of insurance agents are that way. Does that make sense?
