10 Things To Blog About If You Have A Sales-Related Blog

by Mike Sigers

Sharing

I’m sharing as hard and fast as I can, but I can’t always find a great deal of sales tips and advice on other blogs, so I thought I’d share some of the topics that I get asked to write about, in hopes that someone with more time than me can help the needy readers out there find what they’re looking for.

Here’s 10 topics to write about if you have a sales-related blog:

1. What makes a good salesman better.

2. How to develop sales imagination.

3. How to find prospects.

4. How to answer sales objections.

5. How to regain lost customers.

6. How to find a theme for a sales contest.

7. How to build repeat sales.

8. How to close a sale.

9. How to open a sales call.

10. How to beat low priced competition.

Can a blogger get a little help here ? Can somebody else do some posts about these topics ? Can you point us toward some posts already done about these topics ?

MIke, I have 31 sales articles and links to 14 sales and selling tips on my blog at:

Hmm, thought I already commented on this post. For some reason I thought your track back was broken with the double hash. Will try again.

Hi Greg,

Those SPAM filters get a little aggressive sometimes and snare a legit comment. I apologize.

I’ll add you to my Blog Roll and point my readers towards your blog with a post this weekend.

Thanks for stopping by, we appreciate those that add to the conversation around here.

No problem Mike, I am glad that it got through to you. I look forward to your post and links.

Have you thought of adding a subscribe to comments plugin? It allows readers to opt in/our and manage subscriptions to comment threads. It works great.

Thanks again.

Hi Greg,

We can’t get that plugin to work with this version of WP and the theme I use.

I’m having a new design and theme built and it should be deployed inside of 2 weeks.

New theme, latest version of WP and several new plugins.

Thanks for coming back.

Thanks Joe.

Nice group of articles you have over there.

I sell to contractors ( Masonry ) every day and should do a site like that !

Except I’m too busy with our sites -

Thanks for adding to the conversation !
