When it comes to change, some clients are more difficult to help than others. This post is not about clients that are difficult to help. This post is about the reasons that prevent a client from changing, even when doing so is necessary and would improve their results. Over the course of my time in sales and sales leadership, I have found that there is a small set of reasons that prevent clients from changing.

While there are many differences between elite salespeople and average salespeople, two of the more important distinctions are the ability to sell value (they can sell at a slight premium on price) and the ability to reach the top levels of the prospect’s decision-making team (typically the C-Suite).

The ability to be One-Up requires you to have more knowledge and experience than your clients. It doesn't suggest that you are smarter, better looking, and an all-around superior human being, even though these things may or may not be true. Instead, being One-Up means you know things your clients don't know. Being One-Up, in large part, is what allows you to create value for your clients because it occurs when you transfer your knowledge and experience to them by providing counsel, advice, and r

We struggle to get a foothold in a large account. Winning that first deal in the account requires us to get the customer to change. To get them to think differently, addressing problems/opportunities differently. If we succeed, we have helped the customer innovate, to rethink what they currently do, and to do it differently. The customer chose us because they felt compelled to change.

In any conversation between a salesperson and their client, the salesperson is either One-Up or One-Down. The term One-Up means the salesperson has the knowledge and experience their client lacks. The definition of One-Down is "not One-Up." It's binary. You are either one or the other when comparing your knowledge and experience to that of your client.

You might win your next sales call before it even starts. No, it isn’t a new “sales hack”. Yes, I’m talking about sales call planning. And it’s what separates the best reps from the rest.

The data shows that salespeople are not doing well. A search for something like “quota attainment” reveals that a large part of the sales population is missing their target. Sales cycles are growing longer, while more opportunities stall as clients disengage. New—and young—salespeople are leaving their sales roles sooner than ever. Every week, we hear from sales leaders and sales managers who complain about how their teams are unable to get a second meeting, an indication something is amiss.

This is a trick question—but there is a lot of confusion about whether sellers should be focused on the selling or buying process. Of course the answer is both. Some might fairly argue, “We are better aligned with the customer when we focus on the customer buying process.” Of course! And too often we fail to do this, focusing on what we want to accomplish–executing our selling process.

Salespeople need stories to sell. Much of the time, salespeople use stories about their client's problems and how their solution was essential to turning things around. You will not hear me criticize these stories, as they are often an important tactic to helping a decision-maker or B2B buyer recognize themselves while also providing proof. A sales organization must have a catalog of stories available to help their clients move forward with confidence.

They’re spending more time on TikTok too (44 minutes per user per day), busting Facebook’s record of 38.9 minutes and defying predictions that usage would decline as nations emerged from lockdown. These are just some reasons that it’s hardly surprising that competitor platforms are looking for ways to replicate TikTok’s success.
