The concept of being One-Up in sales isn't just about knowing more than your client; it's about knowing the right things to guide the client through their decision-making process. To do this, you must create value for your client and position yourself as a trusted expert. This concept is crucial for effective sales conversations , especially when your clients are making high-stakes decisions and lack the experience to confidently choose the best option.

One of the biggest problems I hear consistently from my clients (even big, established companies) is that they get stuck in a sea-of-sameness and struggle to differentiate themselves from their competition. “We have a unique solution, leading technology, and an amazing, experienced team, but our customers still see us as a commodity! In the end, we have to give deep discounts to drag deals over the finish line.

One of the key strategies for very early stage companies, for new product developers, or lean practitioners, is the concept of the “Minimum Viable Product.” It’s a very customer centric approach in launching new products. It seeks to minimize the risk to the company by introducing a product with just enough functionality to gain interest, then to learn from that, quickly improving and enhancing the product.

We know that salespeople who accomplish their goals do these things consistently: Their goals are written down and they have a plan to achieve them. They have a timeframe that they stick to and their goals are defined and measurable. Lastly, they have an accountability partner or a coach to keep them on track. A sustainable sales goal plan is more than just thinking about and writing down goals.

So I caught up the other day with the CTO of a leading SaaS company with tens of thousands of customers, growing quickly. AI is all over their homepage and website and comms.

Its rolled out to about a tenth of the customers we plan to, and the uses cases are pretty simple today.

Many marketers have approached AI-generated content with understandable skepticism, questioning its ability to capture the nuanced voice and creativity that great marketing demands.

In the old days of selling, closing was about what happens at the end of a client or prospect meeting did we get them to sign something, give us the green light, or seal the deal? The activity was about applying pressure on the buyer to make a decision NOW. Lets pause and think about how we, as buyers, feel when a person is pressuring us to make a buying decision now.

“You’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t.” This expression applies when trying to create and execute personalized campaigns. If you go too deep into understanding prospects’ or customers’ needs and preferences, you can’t scale the campaign. If you go too shallow, then the message lacks relevance and connection to buyers. It’s a challenge we’ve faced while working with clients over the years.
