By Tibor Shanto. Value is not always easy for salespeople to define, making it hard to leverage in sales conversations. Many in the trade sidestep the issue while copping out, saying something socially acceptable and meaningless at the same time. One practice is throwing out something that sounds more right than it is, thus making it hard to argue with.

Are your cold call scripts costing you potential qualified leads? Cold call scripts are not one-size-fits-all, so what works for one team may not work for the next. If you sell telecommunications, your cold calls could and should be different than a salesperson selling software. If you sell IT services, your cold calls could and should be different than a financial services consultant.

The Gist: Some salespeople try to acquire a meeting by mentioning their prospective client’s direct competiton. This approach is problematic because it implies that you’ll share confidential information that will somehow benefit your prospective client, making you untrustworthy. A better approach is to speak about your experience in your prospective client’s industry, something that shows both your expertise and your integrity.

Crafting a killer sales pitch? Well, did you know that it’s not what you say but how you say it ? In fact, how you’re visually perceived by your audience can matter more than what you say. You could have the best speech written down and not a single person would remember it if you spoke in whispers while looking down. How you deliver a pitch is far more important that what you actually have to put across.

The Gist: When we focus on selling, we can lose sight of our obligation to create value for our prospective clients. You must provide your prospective clients with the ability to improve their results. Working to be your client’s competitive advantage is the surest and truest path to winning deals. It’s easy to sell on autopilot, especially when we believe that the conversation is mainly about our winning a deal —a goal best accomplished by not actively pursuing it.

The Gist. The legacy laggard approach to sales views the product as the main source of value for prospective clients. The legacy solution approach to sales finds value in the solution the salesperson provides. The modern approach utilizes the salesperson’s insights, advice, and recommendations to create value in conversations. Although salespeople have always tried to create value for their clients, the place where they locate that value has changed a lot over the last seven decades.

The Gist: In a transactional sale, the salesperson has too little power to lead the client. In the legacy solution approach, the salesperson must negotiate a linear sales process. In the modern approach, the salesperson leads the client. One way you can identify where your sales approach falls on the continuum of legacy to modern is by asking who leads the conversation and what challenges they are addressing.

The Gist. The legacy approaches follow processes that were effective in the past, but they have been consistently losing their value for sales organizations and their clients. The nonlinearity of the sales conversation has reduced the value of a linear approach, even though the concepts are worth retaining. A modern approach uses agility to create the right value for the right conversation, facilitating the buyer’s journey.

Are your sales org’s deals getting stuck in the proposal stage more often than not? If so, it’s not a rep problem. It’s a process problem. Stalled deals are usually a result of placing too much emphasis on optimizing the top-of-the-funnel at the expense of the bottom. Adding insult to injury, that imbalance means all that time and money it takes to get prospects to the closing phase goes to waste.

Sales people have always had a bit of a weird mindset on objections. We do everything we can to avoid them. We go through all sorts of training on how to “handle” them. We rehearse scripted responses to those we anticipate might arise, crossing our fingers, hoping they won’t. Somehow, we have this “negative” reaction to objections.

Maximizing sales rep performance is no easy task. 📈 Traditional sales training methods focus heavily on the first few weeks in the sales role. Companies dedicate time, resources, and budget to onboarding new hires, only for them to forget what was learned in those first few weeks, lose motivation, and struggle to come to grips with their role.
