Selling Value Over Price
#SalesChats: Episode 38

Price is what you buy. Value is what you get. Value is what a customer perceives as worth paying more for. Unfortunately, this isn’t always what salespeople think it is, it’s what customers think it is, because they are the ones that are going to pay for it. Maura Schreier-Fleming discusses value over price in this #SalesChat, hosted by John Golden and Martha Neumeister.

Schreier-Fleming explains:

• How value-added sales processes begin with the sales manager
• The ways to ask questions in order to ensure that customers understand the value behind what is being sold
• Management is responsible for ensuring their sales team understands how to communicate value to the prospects
• The importance of having a very specific, defined ideal prospect who is most likely to want or need what you have to offer
• How to identify criteria for analyzing customers in order to target ideal prospects
• Rethinking the idea that pipeline size leads to more revenue
• Common obstacles that salespeople create when they start utilizing value selling, including salespeople presenting too quickly before they help the client see the pain in their problems
• Traits of salespeople that are good value sellers, and how sales managers can verify their quality
• What to do as a value seller when you encounter a prospect who isn’t a value buyer
• Learn from other successful salespeople in order to master driving value when selling
