Everybody knows you need a good value proposition in order to sell effectively. But does anyone know exactly what a value proposition is? If you ask 100 sales professionals, you’ll likely get 100 different definitions, some more useful than others.
There are a lot of skills and techniques that are important to sales effectiveness, but few are as overlooked and undervalued as empathy. We don’t talk about it when we’re building sales process, we rarely discuss it in sales meetings, and it’s not usually mentioned in sales training.
Few factors impact the success of a sale more than how you communicate the value that your product or service will bring to the customer. Yet many salespeople fail at having meaningful value conversations with their prospects.
“It’s the sexiest software to manage sales I’ve ever seen, and makes my job of managing and scaling the business easier.”
As much as sales people try to sell solutions or sell value, too often they fall back on great products. They focus on product, features, functions, feeds and speeds.
One of the main reasons why apparently well-qualified sales opportunities fail to close or move forward is that the sales person is so intent on pursuing their sales campaign that they fail to accurately diagnose where their prospect is in their buying journey.
