Look directly into their eyes. • Firm handshake. Men shake men first, women shake women first. Introduce yourself: “Hi! I’ll be your Pahio representative today. I’d like to thank you for coming and hope you’ll enjoy your time with us.”

  5. 10 Steps To The Sale • Warm-Up • Make a friend. Don’t talk about the program, talk about them. Find a commonality.

  6. 10 Steps To The Sale • Agenda/Statement of Intent • Get gift concerns out of the way; confirm they’ll get what they are promised for coming. • Let them know this will be a 60-90 minute presentation. • Give them an agenda of what’s to take place; guest profile, written presentation, speaker, wall tour, 2 programs available, at the end someone will show them how to get involved. • Let them know, “all we ask for is a yes or no at the end, that we have some great incentives if you like what you see.”

  7. 10 Steps To The Sale • Discovery • Don’t ask the questions in front of you! Get to the real them. Time to get 3rd level. • Discover their hot buttons, what do they like? Create/discover the warm and fuzzy. • Avoid interrogation!! Transition properly to written presentation.

  8. 10 Steps To The Sale • Podium/Pahio Credibility/Cendant • 15-20 minute video showing the Pahio resort and what we have to offer. • We are not a timeshare presentation, but this is what is offered today.

  9. 10 Steps To The Sale • Presentation • Rent vs. Own • The Evolution of Timeshare. The 70’s, 80’s, and present. Fixed week, floating weeks, point programs, and now a universal point program available only with RCI. • Build Value!!

  10. 10 Steps To The Sale • Standard Program/Anytime • Anyone can purchase Pahio at anytime for the standard resort price. • Try out the membership first and then all equity from the trial goes towards purchase of standard program. • 85% of people purchase the standard program.

  16. Key Phrases • Can’t you just see yourself… • Can’t you just imagine… • As a member would you… • What this means to you is…

  17. The 2 Silver Bullets • Third Party Stories (Feel, Felt, Found) • Silence

  18. The Discovery • Philosophy • The Discovery is the single most important part of the sales presentation. Too many salespeople assume that they know why the customer would buy our product. The biggest mistake salespeople make is not asking the customer questions, not asking the right questions, and not listening for the response.

  19. The Discovery • Finding the Dominant Buying Motive • A problem can be viewed as the customer’s Dominant Buying Motive (DBM). A DBM can be a “hot button”, an emotional or logical need, the want of something they don’t have. We begin to uncover the DBM through the asking of first, second, and third level questions

  20. The Discovery • Strategies for Getting to Level Three • Ask “why” questions • Ask any question with the word “feel” in it • Just listen. Listen so hard it hurts! The more we listen, the more our clients will feel safe to open up to us

  21. The Discovery • Questions you Must Ask • Why are vacations important to us? • How important are vacations to you on a scale from 1 to 10? • Do you see your vacations changing any in the next few years?

  22. The Discovery • Find a Problem with Timeshare Alternatives • If you could change anything about your current vacations, what would it be? • If you could go anywhere in the world on your dream vacation, where would you go? Why haven’t you gone yet?

  23. Self-Test • What are the Ten Steps to the Sale? • What are the two silver bullets? • What is one of the rep’s functions? • Why is it important to listen? • What does DBM stand for? • How do you uncover the DBM?
