Entrepreneurship & Small Business
Help! My main contact left, and I’m panicked!
Dear Jeffrey, I sell copiers in NYC, and this year I finished as the number one rep in the nation. I truly believe that would not have been possible had it not been for your Little Red Book of Selling. I do have a question and would greatly appreciate your advice. Recently I have been noticing a high turnover of people (including executives) at my accounts. When this happens it's almost like the reset button has been pressed and the replacements have no allegiance to me or my service and are usually unaware as to how hard I've worked to earn their company's business. How should I conduct myself when I know there is a new person in a company I have to work with? Is there a specific process I should follow? Thank you in advance. Dan
