Mastering the Technical Sale

Zoom or In Person Workshop

 

Is your sales team made up of scientists and engineers?  Highly educated professionals know how to best present their skills and know how, but often have little training in analyzing the customer's gap and its value.

  • Do you want more repeat business from your best clients?  
  • Do you want to retain your most talented salespeople?
  • Do you want your CRM to be more than just your contact list?
  • Do you spend dozens of hours on a proposal for a close rate of 25% or less?
  • Have you ever wanted your sales process to be more than a "shots on goal" approach?

 Mastering the Technical Sale is designed to introduce consultative, high value sales techniques to sales teams operating in a highly technical industry.  Teach your team to use their deep knowledge in a new way, to connect instead of showcase, to understand rather than to impress.  

Push your success rates, your return on your investment in your team, and your client retention to new highs.  Contact us to talk about how.

Measure the Impact of Better Selling on Your Company

"Jeff and his team put in the effort at the beginning to know the project the way we knew the project, and fully understand our target times and quality expectations. 
 
Occasionally, they would even point out a thing or two that we had not thought of to make sure it was addressed.  The result was that we got the quality we needed at the time it was needed - like clockwork. 
 
But senior management wanted us to use [a lower priced competitor].
 
With [the competitor], it was hard to get much more than "we can do that" and a picture of their instruments.  Quality and timing were all over the map.  In the worst cases, the results were unusable, and the work had to be repeated.  We had to pay for the same milestone twice - and the execs blamed us for the costs and delays.
 
We finally convinced senior management to stop forcing us to use [the competitor] and allow us to use higher priced but preferred alternatives like Jeff's.  We could execute the projects in the predictable way they wanted.  Our outsourcing efforts were well-regarded and cited as something that was working well within the company.  Senior management got their bonuses, and that trickled down with returns for us too."
