    IDENTIFY THE BUYING STYLE OF EVERY CUSTOMER

    TO INCREASE SALES PERFORMANCE

    In the same way that eHarmony leverages key factors to match subscribers,Client Types software identifies the buying style of each customer and translatesthat knowledge into actionable steps for each salesperson to create higher closeratios, more sales and increased insight for sales management.

    The company has developed, tested, launched and delivered to sales floors afast online assessment tool that identifies a customers buying style and details

    how to best interact with that customer.

    Client Types is the only software system that identifies the four key behaviors ofbuying style, predicts customer behavior/response, and directs the salespersonhow to act/not act to improve the interaction and close more sales. This data hasnot been available before in sales environments.

    Know Your Customer Before Selling Begins

    Proprietary software identifies the buying style of each customer during a four-minute multiple-choice survey delivered via email, iPad or iPhone, touch-screenkiosk or online.

    More than 99% of customers who are asked to take the survey do so, based on

    over 8,000 surveys taken in person at timeshare resorts and automotive dealers.

    Sales performance has increased 10%30% in these companies. Case studyreports indicate an average 13% volume increase per salesperson in thesecompanies after using the Client Types system, and that increase is sustained.

    For sales management, the aggregated results of a sales floor can be viewedremotely to diagnose sales floor challenges, optimize efficiencies, assess salesperformance and increase profits.

    Case study reports of targeted training show increases of nearly 100%improvement in challenged areas.

    For the salesperson, Client Types software pinpoints predictive behavior,including key motivations, type of salesperson desired, hot buttons, masks, likelyobjections, how to act/how not to act and sample closing phrases, all withinseconds of the survey being completed.

    The Manhattan Club

    Dear Jason and Sterling,I wanted to express my thanks to both of you for your recent visits. As you knowfirsthand, our staff has been most excited about the inclusion of Client Types as part ofour presentation. Your training with our reps was very exciting and informative. Most.impressive about Client Types is the idea that it takes the guesswork out of thepresentation and really helps you understand who it is that is sitting in front of you. Itallows the representative to speak the client's language and provide better customerservice. As well we have found that the presentation is less generic and more specificbecause we are able to gain an understanding of how our client likes to be dealt with.The Manhattan Club has been fortunate in that we have been able to bring in some of theindustry's top trainers. These people have been great and while a bit pricey, we havelearned so much from them. I have found however, that Client Types is just taking us toa whole other place and without any major upfront costs. It is exactly what I was lookingfor in the sense that it gets us to the next level. It also allows us to be a better and moreprofessional sales organization. We want to be as cutting edge as we can be so we candeliver the best customer service and best product we possibly can. I feel Client Types ishelping us get there.Some of the other things I have come to appreciate as well in working with Client Typesis the "all-inclusive" nature of your training. You have freely shared training bookletswith us, training websites, webinars, PDFS and more importantly your time. I sincerelyhave the feeling that we are in thi.s together and when my business succeeds, yourbusiness succeeds. Your customer service and-support have been first class and for thatwe are very thankful.Since your first visit our site has had record sales figures, and we see this as thebeginning. As our reps continue to use your program, I predict even better results tocome .

    . As you can tell, I am a fan and the players on my team are fans. We look forward to along and prosperous relationship and I want you to feel free to share this letter with othersthat may be considering a relationship with Client Types.Sincerely

    The sales floor results on the next few pages reflect the first 4 months

    of Client Type use from one of our clients. During the first few 90 day

    cycles they used their Client Type Surveys inconsistently and still saw

    closing ratios increases by 13% and their Value Per Guest (VPG) soar

    up.

    They then decided to use our Turn-Key Premium Package (where we

    provided a full time person to facilitate the survey upon arrival of the

    guests) and their improvement in closing jumped another 5% and the

    value of each guest was up again!The Individual Results pages show how we can track each individual

    sales persons performance to specially help them improve on their

    areas of weakness and share what is working with other salespeople

    from their areas of strength. It allows for very targeted training and

    management.

    Note that some sales people do better with different Client Types. InPhase 3 (after 90 days with the program), we will teach you how to

    match each prospect with the sales person who has the best chance of

    closing each individual prospect. Think what that will do to your

    results...
