What are “Sales” Anyway
Well, there is the obvious… someone making a purchase, but how do you
get that to happen?
Market Your Business
Have a good salesperson who knows how to sell.
Work your book of clients, which include call downs.
All part of the typical Sales Funnel… but that’s antiquated.

In the New Sales Funnel… Pie, Some of the Tools Have Changed
There are all types of sales funnels out there. Some are simple and some are
more complex. 6,7,8, 10 or 12 point sales funnels and so on.

So What Do We Mean By “Tools Have Changed”?
Well, the same “tech” that has changed how people shop online has
changed how people communicate as well. Email is an example and has
been around for decades, but now there are many ways to communicate
with customers online, including website forms, pop-ups. In addition,
people communicate using social media, texting, etc.
Let’s go back to email and look at an example of how tech can create a
better customer experience.

Website and Inventory Management
Making basic changes to your website, such as changing images or copy,
should be fairly easy. However, if you need to use a third party to do
these updates, it can take longer than you’d like.
Having someone on staff who can manage product management and
simple tasks will greatly improve the online experience.
