The Science Behind Why People Buy
Ever wonder why some salespeople consistently outperform others selling identical products? The answer isn't charisma or luck - it's science. After a decade of research synthesizing findings from social psychology, neuroscience, and behavioral economics, David Hoffeld discovered that traditional sales methods often directly contradict how humans actually make decisions. The evidence is striking: when companies implement science-based selling techniques, they've seen closing rates increase by up to 92% and revenue growth of 156%. This matters tremendously because today's buyers complete 60% of their purchasing research before ever engaging with sellers, leaving no room for error when salespeople finally get their opportunity. The problem runs deep - research shows only 37% of salespeople consistently perform effectively, while the remaining 63% engage in behaviors that actively reduce their performance. Most sales training remains stuck in outdated approaches, with 85-90% producing no lasting positive impact. Why? Because selling has traditionally focused on techniques rather than on how people actually buy. The persistent myth that extroverts make the best salespeople has been thoroughly debunked - research shows that ambiverts (those between introvert and extravert) generate the highest revenue, outperforming both introverts and extraverts by significant margins.
