Mike Dastic - The 5 Functions of a Top Seller The functions of a seller are tasks aimed at improving the commercial performance of a product or service in the market. That is usually measured by sales volume, but also by returns, repurchases and recommendations. There are sellers who take orders when the customer comes to them (the seller at the counter of a store), and there are the sellers who must go out to look for the customer. All sellers must be creative to achieve their goal, but especially those who must go out looking for their customers. A salesperson has the ability to make people do what they would not do spontaneously. Mike Dastic -The main functions of a seller The functions of a seller are organized into three main phases or stages: preparation, argumentation and transaction. Throughout the three phases, every seller must fulfill the following functions: 1- Know your product The first function that a seller must fulfill is to investigate the characteristics, functions, uses and possibilities of the product or service that he intends to sell. You should also know the policies and features of the organizational culture that describe the manufacturing company. This point is important, since people expect a seller to be familiar with the promotional messages, offers, and slogans of what they are selling. Only by knowing very well what you sell, will you be able to highlight its benefits and detect ways to improve possible failures. Mike Dastic -Another issue that a seller must master is that of the conditions of sale. Thus, you can offer an option that is favorable to both parties to the negotiation. Knowing your product also implies knowing in depth the competition that it may have in the market. 2- Advise potential buyers
