Laughter just might be the solution. You can immediately reduce stress,
increase productivity, teamwork, focus and motivation for your entire
organization or team with laughter. The bottom line impact from improving
all of these factors means better sales results. As a former director of
sales for multiple organizations, I was always looking for innovative ways
to motivate my entire sales force. I wish I had known about laughter
exercises at that time!
There has never been a simpler way to bring more laughter into the
workplace, until now. The most powerful and effective way to bring laughter
into the workplace is to hire a certified laughter yoga leader like myself,
to conduct a laughter seminar.
Many professionals have experienced the benefits of laughter exercises
first hand, yet laughter seminars are still far from being mainstream. When
I have conducted laughter seminars, it is not uncommon for perceived
motivation and productivity to nearly double, right away. Unbelievable,
right?
Below are some of the reasons why you should bring a laughter seminar to
your organization or sales team:
1. Reduce Sales Stress
While there are many tools available for stress
management, laughter seminars provide a unique system that helps to reduce
physical, mental and emotional stress at the same time. It works
simultaneously both on the body and mind.
2. Improved Sales Attitudes
Performance is connected to attitude, and
laughter has the power to change the attitude and mood within minutes by
releasing neuro-peptides from the brain cells called endorphins.
3. Sales Team Building
“People who laugh together, work together” John Cleese, a renowned British comedian, once said during his visit to Mumbai
for a laughter seminar, that laughter is a great connector of people. It
breaks all hierarchies and is a force for democracy. Laughter has the
ability to change the work environment drastically by making people happy
and cheerful, bringing positive mental attitude, and optimism into the sales
force. It also increases communication skills which further help in team
building.
4. Sales Innovation and Creativity
Some of the most creative people in
the world are children. The essence of laughter exercises is to cultivate
childlike playfulness. This playfulness stimulates the right brain activity
which is where the creativity originates. This helps to generate new ideas
and insights about sales challenges and problems.
5. Increasing Attention Span During Sales Conferences,
Sales Training, or
New Product Training Studies have shown that even after just 30 minutes, the
concentration levels start to decrease. A brief laughter seminar can provide
a great energy boost during a full day of training, meetings or conferences.
6. Positive Sales Force Environment
Sales job dissatisfaction can compel
people to change jobs more frequently which will affect productivity and
profitability. Laughter creates positive energy and improves communication
between people. Studies have shown that positive emotions are increased
while negative emotions are decreased from laughter. Happier, more balanced
employees increases loyalty and commitment.
7. Sales Motivation
Laughter helps to bring a smile on the face and
generate good feelings within the body. This enhances communication and
motivation. Positive energy is contagious, and will be felt by prospects,
clients, and the entire sales organization.
These are just some of the many reasons why you should consider a
laughter seminar to increase your sales results. Most sales leaders have
tried just about everything to increase sales results and motivate their
sales force; however, it has not been until now, that laughter has been
viewed as a viable solution.
