In-Person: There are many ways to meet potential clients and customers

        For B2B, you can walk into their business a quick internet search for cannabis
        shops in your area does wonders. Or you can call and make an appointment to
        meet for B2B or B2C. Most times, you can meet clients while you're out and
        about at the grocery store or on a taxi, or wherever you may be.

        It's important to remember a few key points to effective in-person selling. Don't
        tell them everything all at once. Instead, find out their wants and needs and
        tailor your presentation to show how your product or service solves their
        problem. Always have our sales material on hand to help you in this process
        (such as samples or our digital catalogues). Make sure and end with a call to
        action and a promise to follow-up.



        Follow-Up and then Follow-Up Again
        The fortune is in the follow-up. You're going to hear “no” a lot. For some people,
        that “no” is firm. But for others, the “no” is only “no” for now. Many sales rep’s

        hear “no” and give up. But 80% of sales are not made on the first, second, or even
        a third contact! It can take five or more contacts to achieve a sale.


        Finding customers and clients requires a thick skin and a firm belief in
        what we are selling.

        Just because someone tells you “no” today doesn’t mean it will be a “no”
        tomorrow. The trick is to have a non-annoying system of follow-up such as an
        email list, or agreement to call again in a few months.
        Keep track of your communication with various leads and clients by using some

        sort of  database. Create calendar reminders to follow-up in the future with
        everybody.


        The system for getting clients and customers is straight forward.
        You need to entice them to learn about us through our marketing efforts, then
        you need to build a relationship with them that will hopefully lead to a sale.

        During the process, you'll want to get their contact information either through an
        email follow up system or keeping your own contact management list. Finally,
        you want a system for staying in touch for as long as they're open to hearing
        from us.



        Encourage word-of-mouth recommendations
        Satisfied customers are the best advocates for our business, so urge them to pass
        on our details to people they know. Ask friends and family to do the same. We
        will provide customised business cards and clothing to the sales reps that we see

        are serious about this.
