Dealing with timeshare first and foremost make a friend! This builds trust within your customer which must be established. A relationship is built by finding commonality between myself and the customer. Simply, listening and being able to relate is key. It shows you care and you're a real person just like them! I then use the information discovered about the client to illustrate how beneficial the product will be for them and their family. Value is then recognized by the customer and recommendations are made. When closing a plan is put in place to save money and make memories that the family deserves!
