Love it or hate it, if you're in a business or technology company of any kind, selling is a skill you must have; however, you can't just focus on selling your product or service. You must also have a strong sales message or presentation that effectively sells your ideas, vision, or strategy and builds rapport with your audience. So how do your sales communication skills rank? Especially, if you're in the technology field where the complex details of software, products, or services make sense to the people in your building but often confuse the people you're selling to. Are you losing the deal once you get to the presentation phase of the sale? Do you find yourself spending too much time listing the features and benefits of your product or service? Are you often talking right but your team walking left? Brian Williams brings a new perspective to the old business of creating sales messages and presentations that work. In his six-step systematic approach you will learn to design and deliver sales messaging that drives your prospects towards a clear decision, and you, to increased revenue as you learn to create sales messaging that is clear, concise, and compelling. If your sales message is confusing, you are definitely losing because confused prospects rarely buy. So learn the systematic approach that has been proven to work for Fortune 100 companies, small businesses, and entrepreneurs everywhere. With this six-step system you will learn to: * Focus on your audience and understand their greatest issues or concerns. * Use the Cornerstone Principle to build a message with a strong foundation that is results-focused and audience-focused. * Create a sales message that is clear, concise, and compelling - every time. * Deliver your sales message with a confidence that creates connection.

Download or read book The Challenger Sale written by Matthew Dixon and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-11-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What's the secret to sales success? If you're like most business leaders, you'd say it's fundamentally about relationships-and you'd be wrong. The best salespeople don't just build relationships with customers. They challenge them. The need to understand what top-performing reps are doing that their average performing colleagues are not drove Matthew Dixon, Brent Adamson, and their colleagues at Corporate Executive Board to investigate the skills, behaviors, knowledge, and attitudes that matter most for high performance. And what they discovered may be the biggest shock to conventional sales wisdom in decades. Based on an exhaustive study of thousands of sales reps across multiple industries and geographies, The Challenger Sale argues that classic relationship building is a losing approach, especially when it comes to selling complex, large-scale business-to-business solutions. The authors' study found that every sales rep in the world falls into one of five distinct profiles, and while all of these types of reps can deliver average sales performance, only one-the Challenger- delivers consistently high performance. Instead of bludgeoning customers with endless facts and features about their company and products, Challengers approach customers with unique insights about how they can save or make money. They tailor their sales message to the customer's specific needs and objectives. Rather than acquiescing to the customer's every demand or objection, they are assertive, pushing back when necessary and taking control of the sale. The things that make Challengers unique are replicable and teachable to the average sales rep. Once you understand how to identify the Challengers in your organization, you can model their approach and embed it throughout your sales force. The authors explain how almost any average-performing rep, once equipped with the right tools, can successfully reframe customers' expectations and deliver a distinctive purchase experience that drives higher levels of customer loyalty and, ultimately, greater growth.

Knowledge without action is worthless.” – Jason Sisneros, Chairman - Anton Jae Global Ever tried to hustle your way through a high-stakes poker game, knowing that the month's rent was on the line? Ever used the velvet touch of persuasion to angle your next pool shot or card play, ensuring the game's outcome before the final move? That's where I crafted my mastery in sales. Some get their sales savvy from polished boardrooms or prestigious MBA programs. Me, I learned the art of sales, persuasion and negotiating in the streets. Every move was calculated, and every game was a lesson in negotiation. The streets were my Ivy League, teaching me more about the human psyche and persuasive moves than any traditional classroom ever could. In this book, I reveal how the art of the hustle—from setting up poker games to guaranteeing wins in pool by sheer negotiation prowess—sculpted me into a sales titan. But this isn't just about my glory days on the streets. It's about translating that raw, unfiltered skill into a sales methodology so potent that today, I'm recognized as one of the nation's premier sales trainers, molding elite sales teams and advising the behemoths of the corporate world. While many said I was just a gambler, they didn't see the strategist within. My stories of perseverance, grit, and the raw energy of someone who's played against the house and walked away with the jackpot will prove to you that the world of sales isn't just about transactions; it's about strategy, audacity, and setting the stage for the win. Let's turn the tables on convention and beat the odds together.
