Tips You Can Use When Selling During The Pandemic


At the moment, people keep asking me how I can continue to sell to customers without being perceived as insensitive or disconnected from current events.


There are a number of relevant sales conversations about how your B2B solution can help your customers adapt to the key benefits of coronavirus to help them get through the crisis.


A few best tips we can give is:

  • to develop a solution,
  • stay in business during the pandemic,
  • and develop new strategies and manage the effects it causes. 


I am speaking to prospective customers at a time when their opinion is guaranteed to be on the COVID 19 crisis. 

Even if the coronavirus turns out to be a short-term panic and the US economy slides into recession, investing in a well-stocked pipeline with sales prospects is not a bad idea.


When people send me their questions and concerns in times of crisis, I have seen the same two mistakes repeated by many different sales teams. 


By being able to use these simple strategies, you can not only increase turnover but also increase traffic, which means that you will probably continue to come out on the other side even during pandemics.


  • Using content as a marketing strategy


Content marketing strategies that are able to adapt to difficult times and send a clear message to customers about the company's current business can lead to the certainty that customers will receive their products and that shopping is safe for them.

Instead of marketing your products, you choose to share memes and other positive vibes and stories with your customers.


This may seem very simple and simple, but I think it is important that you share your goods with people, so I have decided to actively communicate with my customers and let them know that I am open and businesslike.


If you do your best to stay positive and focus on your task, your team will be kept on their toes and not sink. If you continue to sell and build your business even in difficult times, this is the best career for your company.


I reached out to some of them, offered help, sent mask donations to Michigan charities, and made sure that both my customer and my supplier were informed of the status.


We worked on giveaways in New Orleans and sent masks to New York and New Jersey, as well as a mask donation to the Michigan charity.


  • Continue to sell and serve


If you sell fashion items to the visitors of a music festival, you may be in a very difficult position during a pandemic but if you continue to work effectively on your pipeline and focus on serving your customers, you will be able to survive this.


If you sell on during a crisis, you contribute to the economy and help the world to continue to function during the pandemic.


  • Rethink product's positioning 


Spend some time thinking about how you can reposition your product to allay customers' concerns.

Depending on what type of B2B solution you sell, your prospects may be significantly affected by the coronavirus. Spend some time thinking about how you can change your product or service, which is a key asset, in a way that is not only relevant but also effective for your concerns.


At a time when it does not look as if it can be met, such as a lack of food, water, or medical care, you may be facing particular challenges. 


These pain points are not uncommon, and you should be able to adjust your messages so that your product or solution can help resolve them while life returns to normal.


The good news is that those of us who are used to using the same sales arguments we have used before is probably still relevant; we just need to adjust the way we present them and align our product with people's most pressing concerns.


During your pitch, you should not only talk about your company's products and services, but also about how you and the company can help your customer adapt to this ever-changing situation, and the key benefits it will bring them through difficult times. 


It is likely that many e-commerce store owners lost a significant amount of business as a result of the pandemic. However, there are also some that are currently thriving, such as Amazon, eBay, Google, Amazon Prime, and many others.


  • Change the perspective


A good way to increase sales is to change the angle of view and focus on your product.

For example, if you are an outdoor store selling camping equipment like torches, a new angle might be to market the torches as survival tools.


To Summarize


Companies need to recognize one thing if they want to survive a pandemic If we do not develop solutions and strategies to deal with pandemics, it is highly likely that we will not be in business. Selling during a pandemic is different from selling at any other time, as we just reported.

  1. Things are not going to change in a snap of the fingers, and highly likely things are not going back to the 'old' normal.

    Things are not going to be the same anymore but that doesn't mean we, as salesperson or business people just laid back and drift with the flow.

    We should be able to do something, and the tips above should give you ideas to move on. Like they said, "This too shall pass."
