There are really only two ways to sell anything. One is a struggle most of the time. Let's call this one "Hard Selling". The other seems pretty effortless. I call this one "Collaborative Selling". I must admit that both will get you some business. However, "Hard Selling" is always uphill battle. "Collaborative Selling," on the other hand, guarantees you huge rewards, an endless flow of ready-to-buy prospects, and creates an environment for you to have incredible fun doing it. Before we go any further we have to clarify which method you have been using. Here's a simple test that should give you a clue if you're not already sure. Answer these 3 questions: *How much of your business comes from unsolicited referrals? *How many of your customers buy from you again and again? *Is the closing of the sale easy or hard? When you become a part of your customers' very own support staff (which is the case in "Collaborative Selling"), you will consistently get referrals and repeat business. Hopefully you do get a lot of referral and repeat business. Unfortunately, too many salespeople I work with can't say that. If that sounds like you, I can help you transform your results. Here is the pattern I notice in many sales people. They constantly jump from job to job. They change entire industries. And they are constantly looking for new customers. I had to learn this lesson myself the hard way... Back in 1966, when I was just 19 years old, I made more money than my dad or anyone else in my family. You won't believe how. I sold pots and pans. They were very expensive. They sold for nearly $300. Remember. This was over 35 years ago when you could buy a decent used car for that amount. On my first sale, I sold a friend what we called our "Golden Opportunity" package. So not only did she get the pots...she also plunked down an extra $200 on some china. Hey! They were nice plates. Now she didn't really want all this stuff. She just didn't have the power to say "No." My offer and my close were way too strong for her to resist. Sounds good right? Not so fast. You have to look deeper. Here's what happened next... When I delivered the cookware, I asked her to go get her address book. It was time to get a list of referrals. Right? Wrong! She said no. I asked, "Why not? I don't understand." She said, "I don't want you to do to my friends what you did to me." "What's that?" I asked. She looked at me and said, "Tony, you sold me." I still remember how terrible that statement made me feel. She might as well have said I violated her. That's what it sounded like to me. It was a crushing blow. What's the lesson here? Sure, I made the sale. But ultimately I paid the price. I couldn't see it at first. But I paid for it emotionally. I paid for it financially. But worst of all, I paid for it spiritually. It didn't happen all at once, but my sales eventually began to drop off. The biggest reason was, I didn't feel good about what I was doing. It sounds a little cheesy, I know. But don't think for a second that the way you feel, who you are, or what you believe about your product or service, does not affect how well you do. It does! But that's not all. I also didn't feel good about the way my customers saw me. I remember I used to practically pray that I wouldn't see my customers at the store, walking downtown, or standing in line at the movie theater. Maybe you've been there. Anyway, it took me a number of years to figure out what was causing all the struggle. That was then. Here's what I discovered... Back in the 60's and 70's, selling was pretty simple. All you had to do was have a great opening line, a good pitch, and a strong close and you would get sales. You can't do that today. Your customers are too smart. They are too savvy. Yet a lot of sales people way underestimate the knowledge and intuition their prospects come armed with. Just think. They research the Internet. They shop around.&nbs

Right of withdrawal
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
