Calculate time
spent doing specific activity |
|
| |
How
can I calculate the time spent on custom activities in ACT! - for instance,
the hours spent traveling or time spent meeting with a customer, etc.?
You can create a report of time spent on custom activities by creating
a new activity type and recording the time spent in the History. To
do this:
| 1. |
Create
a new 'Activity Type' by clicking 'Schedule > Manage > Activity
Types'. |
| 2. |
Whenever you
do this, right-click the 'History' tab and record the activity and
the time spent. |
| 3. |
Create 'History
Time Spent' report to view the total time spent on this activity. |

Use
Plain Speak; Avoid Jargons |
|
| |
Focusing on benefits, rather than jargons can help you sell successfully.
If you want to cultivate a long-term relationship with your customers,
avoid using acronyms or buzzwords and explain the benefits clearly.
When negotiating or making a sales presentation, you should speak the
same language and use the same terms as your prospects. This ensures
that you are clearly understood. Never try to sound impressive. Always
remember that prospects would not invest in a product that they don’t
understand.

Negotiate
to Win |
|
| |
If you do your ground work and prepare beforehand, negotiating will not
be a necessary evil for you. When you are adequately prepared you will
be confident, positive and ready to win.
Before beginning the negotiating process, you should have established
a good relationship with the client. After you have a good idea about
what they feel about this sale, you will be able to negotiate successfully.
Set aside your ego and concentrate on being logical. Patience is a virtue
that comes handy during a negotiation. Listen carefuly to reach a win-win
compromise.
