How to Be a Great Brand Ambassador

Summit Retail Solutions prides itself on recruiting and training the best brand reps in the industry. Our energetic, motivated teams run product demonstrations in high traffic, big box retailers, and have the secrets to helping products stand out to new customers.

 

  1. Know Yourself: Research has shown that 55% of people who are engaged in selling are actually in the wrong profession. Not everyone can be an effective salesperson. Summit Retail Solutions prides ourselves on identifying raw talent and mentoring our people to help them grow into successful salespeople.
  2. Have Focus: This is one of the most dominant indicators of sales success. Successful brand ambassadors are focused on their sales goals, their brands, and their customers. Knowing all three of these things inside and out allows you to identify new opportunities and close the deal.
  3. Understand Your Customer: Put yourself in your customer’s shoes. This level of empathy allows you to understand their purchasing behavior (or lack thereof) from the inside out and provide real, actionable solutions to their problems.
  4. Be Enthusiastic: Sales is a challenging industry, but finding the right connections is extremely rewarding. Always look for the next opportunity and keep your energy levels high so that you can positively connect with your next customer. Be excited about the product you’re selling and the ways it can help your customer.
  5. Take Action: Successful brand reps are able to identify new opportunities and aggressively pursue them. An action-driven mindset allows you to drive big results for your brands, hit your personal goals and provide real value to your customers.
