Description

In an increasingly complex, and information driven selling situations, the challenge before both prospective customers and sales professionals is not lack of knowledge anymore but an overwhelming abundance of it.Imagine the quality of background research you conduct every , before you make a big ticket purchase, somes even for smaller and frequently purchased items. The customer feedbacks we go through, the websites we scavenge, the opinions we seek, the information we gather before we actually make a buying decision, is often hard work, but that which we happily embrace before we actually buy. And when it comes to selling in B2B businesses all this hard work increase exponentially and is well rewarded.

Sales conversations are no longer about products and services, they are now more about ideas and perspectives. It is one thing to impress the customer with your offer and advice , quite another to influence the customer to accept and adopt them.
