The telephone has arguably done more to help sales professionals than any other invention in history. And still it is the most under-utilised tool in your toolbox. Note I don't say under-used, because if you're like most professionals, you are probably on the phone more than two hours a day. The question is, how effective are you at using the phone to move your prospects closer to the sale and going deeper with your clients/customers to generate more sales and cross-selling opportunities? It's a fact that some people are naturally good on the phone. Others need to work at it. Here are some key skills and qualities you need to be good on the phone.

Yet people, including the guy I am referring to, talk about the 500 channel universe as if it has been a reality for over 15 years. Anyway, I emailed him and challenged his 500-channel assertion. He promptly and sarcastically replied back that everyone knows the reference to 500 channels is "just a concept." Everyone but me, it seems.
