The Cosmetic sale is a fine balance of education and continuous relationship-building. Psychology plays into every sale, but in the cosmetic industry, â??Thinking like a shrinkâ? to connect with the patient on an emotional level must occur to connect naturally through empathy. Examining the emotional drivers through a step-by-step consultation technique can also allow you to address and manage priorities, â??Red flagsâ??, manage expectations, and of course, close the consultation. But it doesnâ??t stop there. Always consulting through subsequent touch-points is necessary to build trust, anticipate needs, reinforce your message and mission, up-sell, and set up continuous sales. Consultation techniques surrounding the first-time consult including credentialing, extracting and exploring emotional drivers, managing expectations, avoiding problems by addressing â??red flagsâ?? proactively, approaching continuous sales, and reinforcement through subsequent touch-points are proven leads to long-term, sustainable patient relationships and sales.
