Tips & Tactics: Let the Seller Beware
By Gary Walker, Co-founder of CustomerCentric Selling®
I was cleaning up my hard disk recently when I came across an old article that first appeared in Wall Street & Technology back in February 2003. It was entitled, "Let the Seller Beware: How to Get Better Deals from Software Vendors." The article was written by a 'software industry veteran' who, during the article's introduction, offered that he had "learned and refined many techniques to get as much of your money as possible," and that "very few buyers of enterprise software and related services are as expert at buying as most vendors are at selling." For that reason he had "switched his allegiance" and was now assisting enterprise software buyers in structuring the best deals and terms with their software vendors. My immediate reaction to this article and his 'insider tips' was simply: interesting. Nothing particularly earth shattering. Click here to read more.
Are you Rethinking the Sales Cycle?
The advent of the Internet has brought websites, blogs and social networking to empower buyers to engage salespeople much later in buying cycles than ever before. If and when they choose to speak with salespeople, buyers are knowledgeable about their requirements and will resist traditional selling efforts to alter them. Vendors in search of a sustainable competitive advantage have failed to understand that sellers that can align with new buying behavior will provide superior buying experiences. Rethinking the Sales Cycle provides insights into buying cycles and a roadmap of how a salesperson's role must change to align with buyers.
