BtoB sales

1) The challenges of today BtoB sales field:

Does this sound familiar?

greater difficulty differentiating your company's products and services from competition's;

customers/prospects only looking for the lowest price, ignoring value and trying to commoditize everything you have to offer;

gatekeepers keeping you from meeting with key decision makers;

reps facing an increased number of product evaluators, trying to cut costs and focusing on price;

longer and more complex sales cycles.

Did you answer yes to most of these questions? You are not alone. Indeed the game has changed.

Customers have hijacked key aspects of the selling process.

According to the Marketing Leadership Council, clients are now almost 60 % into the decision process when they call the vendor.Sometimes they won't even offer you a chance to pitch your products/solutions.They do their own online research and reach out to sales organizations on their own terms. They define their own criteria and find who best matches them.

Consultants, buying committees and procurement departments play now a bigger role in the buying process.

Meanwhile an increasing number of gatekeepers tend to deny access to a shrinking number of real decision makers.

As a result, solutions/products tend to be commoditized, putting prices under heavy pressure. 

Sales cycles tend to be longer.

Therefore, winning complex sales has become more  complicated than ever.

Going to market with unique, high-quality products and services is no longer a guarantee that sales will be made and accounts will be retained.

No wonder so many sales reps are confused by the new game. Some even get disheartened.

Yet the ones who know how to adapt to the new environment, and regain control of the sales process, differentiate themselves and become very successful.
