Miele Availability Update
Nov 2, 2021 by Leave a Comment
Hello,
It’s the first of the month so I’m sending, once again, an email that gives ETA dates on units based off of today’s availability. As you can see as you scroll through dates are pretty good, vast majority within four weeks. With the holidays coming up I’m sure there will be a bit of an uptick in cooking replacement business and we have plenty in stock. There’s far more in stock items but this list gives a good idea of the availability of top moving items.

Even a Correct Decision is Wrong When It Was Taken Too Late

Sales Tip #567 From The Sales Doctor
“Even a Correct Decision is Wrong When It Was Taken Too Late.”
– Lee Iacocca, Former Chairman of Chrysler
I thought about one of my favorite sayings, “Time Kills a Deal,” when I read this quote by Lee Iacocca.
Don’t let the fear of rejection keep you from asking for the business in a timely fashion.
You have to close for commitment before the customer has decided not to buy. When that decision is made too late you can lose the sale.
