Sales & Its Types

Sales is the process of persuading people to buy a product or service. It’s about building trust, solving problems, and closing deals.

Types of Sales

1. By Business Model:

B2B (Business-to-Business): Selling to companies (e.g., software, consulting).

B2C (Business-to-Consumer): Selling to individuals (e.g., cars, retail).

D2C (Direct-to-Consumer): Brands selling directly without middlemen.

2. By Selling Method:

Inside Sales: Selling remotely (calls, Zoom).

Outside Sales: In-person selling (field sales).

Consultative Sales: Problem-solving approach.

Transactional Sales: Quick, one-time purchases.

3. By Product Type:

High-Ticket Sales: Expensive products, long sales cycles (luxury, enterprise software).

Low-Ticket Sales: Affordable, fast sales (subscriptions, fast food).

Inbound Sales: Customers come to you (ads, referrals).

Outbound Sales: You reach out (cold calls, emails).

Top Sales Tips to Close More Deals

1. Build Trust First – People buy from those they trust. Use storytelling and authority.

2. Focus on Customer Problems – Sell solutions, not features. Ask deep questions.

3. Use Trust, Emotion, and Leverage – Build credibility, create urgency, and show proof.

4. Handle Objections Like a Pro –

“Too expensive” → “Compared to what?”

“Need to think” → “What’s stopping you from deciding today?”

5. Always Close with a Clear CTA – Offer choices: “Should we start with Plan A or B?”

Since you're getting into high-ticket sales, you’ll need persuasion, negotiation, and closing skills. Want a roadmap to land your first client?
