Explanation:

The selling process is the series of steps followed by a salesperson while selling a product. Selling Process is a complete cycle which starts from identifying the customers to closing the deal with them. It is more relevant is B2B business sales where the sales cycle is not short and might take a longer duration to close. In B2C the selling process may be transient and shorter.
Let us assume a newly open gym in a posh locality to understand the selling process steps. The gym owners will first search for prospects who can afford the gym fees and are in need of accessing a gym with facilities. The pre-approach & approach stages would be when the owners of the gym would market the brand through leaflets, brochures etc. This would entice the people to give a call and arrange for a visit to the gym. Here the gym amenities, facilities, instructors etc. would be shown, which would be a part of the presentation and demonstration. The queries regarding fees, trainers, equipment etc. would be handling the objections of the prospect. Once a person is satisfied, they would be willing to join the gym by paying the fees & hence that would be closing the deal in the selling process. Follow-up would ensure that the customer keeps on attending the gym in the future as well.
