Here's a sample from
the "15 Biggest Mistakes" report:
Rule 7: Do they identify enough of the customer's buying criteria before they present.
Studies show that the more buying criteria on the customer's mind, the less important is any single one (such as price) is to the purchasing decision.

Competitive Selling Skills
for the New Millennium

10 biggest mistakes
(Sales Roles #3: The Architect; #4: The Coach; #5: The Therapist)

          Expect competition . This is an important shift salespeople must make in planning their sales process. While most salespeople know competition exists, most have the habit of reacting to the question "Why should I buy from you," instead of preparing for it.

          Competitive Selling Skills for the New Millennium provides a step-by-step method salespeople can use to help customers define their own needs in a way that places the salesperson's offering in the best possible light. When customers have this perspective, salespeople can defeat their competition without slashing price.

         In Sales Role #3: The Architect, salespeople design unique solutions that simplify the customer's research and lock out competitors. In Sales Role #4: The Coach, salespeople compare their offering to the competition and implement a game plan to win the sale. In Sales Role #5: The Therapist, salespeople draw out prospects' last-minute fears and help to resolve them.

         Your audience will receive:

  • Tools to influence customer buying criteria
  • A system for analyzing and presenting strengths and weaknesses
  • Techniques for diminishing the impact of your weaknesses
  • An accurate, proven way to anticipate buyer behavior, rather than react to it
  • Actual experience applying the concepts to a sale they are currently working on
  • A finished "game plan" to take back out into the marketplace - and win more sales

             This program uses a practical, how-to format and includes discussion and small-group exercises. Participants leave with the confidence that comes from having developed new competitive selling skills - and a specific plan to put the new skills into action .

             Formats: Keynote, half-day seminar, full-day seminar

              "Your program provided us with a road map for analyzing our strengths and weaknesses - and those of our competitors, too. Now, we are much more effective at communicating our advantages to our prospects."
