'Selling Distinctive Value'

Seminar Overview

Selling Distinctive Value is an interactive seminar focused on acquiring revenue from customers.

You've prepared your business for the market. You've done marketing research. You understand technology adoption models, "whole" solution offerings, product positioning, and you've determined the price you can charge. You understand what need your product solves for your customers, but they're still not buying your product in great quantities.

Selling Distinctive Value focuses on:

·      Diagnosing the severity of the customer's problem that your product can solve
·      Helping the customer build a business case to buy your product
·      Getting initial attention from customers
·      Understanding and engaging with all the customer's buying influences
