Types of customer Based on unique behavioral attributes, customers are of following types Loyal customer Discount customer Impulse customer Need based customer Wandering

customer

Page 24: selling skills pharmaceutical

Loyal customer 20% of our customer base but make up more than 50% our sales. Completely satisfied customer. Keep

returning to company. We need to communicate with these customers on a regular basis by telephone, mails, emails.

• customer experience

• customer expectation

• Positive word of mouth

You can , never do enough for them. many times, the more you do for them, the more they will recommend you to other. Invest maximum time and effort to serve these customer

Page 25: selling skills pharmaceutical

make their decisions based on the size of discount. This category helps ensure your inventory is turning over and as a result, it is a key contributor to cash flow.

Merely satisfied customers, also show defection ready to switch. Chase low prices. Milk these

customers as long as they are active or in discount seasons

Page 26: selling skills pharmaceutical

do not come for buying a particular item but on a whim. They will purchase what seems good at the

time. Buy on impulse. Maximize the profit on each transaction.

• This is the segment we all like to serve. There is nothing more exciting than assisting an impulse BUYER and having them respond favorably to our recommendations.

• pursue fashion trends. We want to target our displays towards these customers

Page 27: selling skills pharmaceutical

Need based customer People in this category are driven by a specific need. It is difficult to satisfy

these people. Customers are habitual of particular brand.

• Show inertia in brand switching. Need based customer can easily be lost to internet sales or a different retailer. So to overcome this threat, positive personal interaction is required. They can also become loyal customers if they are well taken care of

Page 28: selling skills pharmaceutical

Wandering customer They have no specific need or desire in mind. They want a sense of experience or

community.

They make up the smallest percentage of sales.

keep in mind, however, that although they may not represent a large percentage of your immediate sales,

they are a real voice for you in the community. Although wandering customers cannot be ignored, the

time spent on them needs to be minimized.

• Creates a brand image• Detailing must be perfect with mixture of • Scientific information, • Quality of product • And • The manufacturing technique used

This will provide maximum mileage in the shortest possible time

communication as well as personal selling.

"Whether our prospects like it or not, their bodies and words say it for them,"

TYPES OF BUYING SIGNALSverbal signals

non-verbal signals

Page 74: selling skills pharmaceutical

that has already been fully answered, and generally acknowledging that it has been - "How much did you say it costs?" - Be aware that

if it's said in shocked surprise and incredulity, it's a cue for more probing!

"I could see you on a Thursday" - "How often would we need to meet face to face?" - "We'll need to involve Janet"

that's not necessarily free - "Can I try it for a month and see if it works?" - "I'll need to see it in action"

Page 75: selling skills pharmaceutical

"That sound really good" - "Who could say no to that?"

"What will happen if it doesn't produce results?”

We don't need examples here. Even if they say it's overpriced, to have got to the top of their priority

stack, these comments or questions say they want to buy.

Page 76: selling skills pharmaceutical

"When can we start?" - "It'll have to be next week" - "Can't we do it in four weeks instead of five?" - "I'm tied up until Thursday" - If this

type of signal arrives as a question, you can legitimately avoid answering it by asking back, "When would be best for you?"

"What do you think would be best?" - "What would you do if you were me?"

who's in the room - "What do you think?" - They've decided but they just want confirmation that they're not being daft.

Page 77: selling skills pharmaceutical

with a previous supplier - "Everyone I've tried has been useless!" - These types of comment are actually cues for more probing

or for a personal contact with a satisfied client - Again no examples needed. It's effectively a no-brainer! Again they just want confirmation

that they're not being daft.

Page 78: selling skills pharmaceutical

• Spending time concentrating on just one of your products

• Asking/looking for help

• Asking questions about details - "Which of my people will be directly involved?" - "What exactly will you be doing?"

• Touching their wallet or its contents, or their chequebook - Literally or metaphorically

• Changes of body state - Relaxing, moving stance, gestures, skin tone, style of speech

• Getting out their pen - Literally or metaphorically

Page 79: selling skills pharmaceutical

• Maybe it's time to move on Unwillingness to trade commitments - At least unwilling to make their own in return for yours

• Your calls, messages and e-mails go unanswered• "I really like your suggestion but I need to ........

before we can go ahead"• Avoiding eye contact when you meet• "We'd really like you to help us but we just need a

bit more time/have some other priorities to deal with first"

• 'Playing' with your product, or looking at many without ever concentrating on one

• Physically moving around a lot, quickly

Page 80: selling skills pharmaceutical

Greet the doctor further ask for his wellbeing.

Give a small 15 seconds introduction oncompany image.

Listen to the doctor and use the FUNNELTECHNIQUE to get the flow of conversation.

Once you have understood the requirement,use the DAPA Method of Selling so as to confirm thereis no GAP between the need and the offering.

Page 81: selling skills pharmaceutical

In case the doctor has a doubt/objection, thenconcentrate and resolve that before moving ahead.

In case the doctor asks about the PRICE. Tell him/herthat you would give him/her the best price comparing others.(Use the price postponement techniques)‏.

In case the question still arises on PRICE, use theSANDWICH METHOD to answer it.

Pleasantly Close the sale and confirm theprescriptions.
