The Ag Sales Professional’s Guide
to better discovery methods

A big contributor to the salesperson’s problem is the poor listening habit of, “thinking about the next question”. This happens when we fail to listen to the farmer’s answer. Instead, we are thinking about our next question. All the while, missing out on the gold mine that is just one or two additional questions beyond.
