Value Selling – in company training
For years, traditional consultative selling was the approach many sellers used to successfully compete and consistently win sales. Consultative selling is a sales approach centered around understanding buyer needs and positioning offerings as solutions to problems. Consultative sellers use empathy and incisive questions to learn about a buyer’s reality and how they can succeed.
However, massive changes in buying technology and the vast amount of information on the internet are significantly changing how buyers buy at an unprecedented pace. They are more aware of their problems and possible solutions than ever before. Here’s the deal: customers don’t need a sales person to tell them what they already know. Instead, they are looking for ways to accelerate results: increase revenue, cut costs, mitigate risks and save time. We call that value. If you can make customers perceive value from your mutual interactions you’re setting yourself up for success.
Your ability to differentiate yourself and your company based on value while assuming a trusted-advisor role is vital if you want to be competitive.
So if you’re looking for ways to keep up with the changing buyer landscape and stay on top of the game, make sure you enroll for our Value Selling course!
