DESIGN YOUR SALES TEAM & TACTICS TO WIN YOUR SALE

How are you selling your product? Is it the most efficient or effective way? Does everyone know who is meant to be doing what?

​

Sales are different, sometimes because of different products (prices and complexities), sometimes because of the different customers who need them and sometimes because of the different markets they are sold into. The sale needs to be matched to the needs not copy-pasted from previous experience or borrowed from a competitor.

​

SalesDISK© is designed for sales and business leaders looking to improve sales revenues by understanding the mix of people needed, and tactics that could be deployed within their sale. The overall result is a solid go-to-market plan where people know what they’re doing, and scale can be achieved as you grow.
 

At its heart, SalesDISK© is the review of the four key areas of the sale, referred to as segments - DEVELOP, IDENTIFY, SERVICE and KNOWLEDGE - the initials of these segments forming the acronym DISK.

SALES FORECAST AND HIT RATE IMPROVEMENT

Sales teams who adopt STRONGMAN© have higher hit-rates and significantly higher forecast accuracy.

 

The STRONGMAN© process, developed by Ed Wal of the BDW Partnership, helps salespeople plan and develop the sale to ensure its success. Unlike sales training which focuses on needs development, STRONGMAN© focuses on the sale as seen from the prospects point of view.  The focus being to progress the opportunity together in partnership.

 

Internally STRONGMAN© builds a shared language between salespeople and their managers, allowing opportunities to be assessed in one-on-one or group opportunity reviews where everyone can quickly understand the situation and suggest routes forward.

 

For those new to sales it helps provide a structure for planning the sale and for those with experience it helps improve their hit rate and build their success. For Sales Managers and Leaders, it helps ensure you provide accurate forecasts and helps identify which deals can be moved to fill gaps.

 

STRONGMAN© has helped thousands of Salespeople and their Managers take control of their pipeline and increase their sales.

DESIGNING MESSAGES, FINDING CUSTOMERS, DRIVING CONVERSATIONS

Imagine you have nothing. No CRM full of previous relationships. No one knows you and you want to change this.

 

This is of course true for start-ups but also for established businesses who want to progress out of the comfort zone of trade shows and print/banner ads. It’s also true when you want to enter new markets where your history and brand offers little value, and you find yourself back at square one.

 

From Zero Marketing starts by segmenting your market, developing personas & profiles, and then creating value propositions, messages, and content to match. Using our ideas and campaigns, we build audiences for social advertising campaigns, email outreach and sales prospecting, always ensuring there are solid, valuable and relevant reasons for contact.

​

Highlights

​

  • Understand your customer segmentation

  • Create value propositions, messages, content

  • Design your brand and pick a market position

  • Design email and social advertising campaigns

  • Understand Google/LinkedIn/Twitter

  • Create segmented audiences for outreach/prospecting 

  • Enable salespeople to make calls and book meetings

EMBEDDING VOICE OF CUSTOMER IN YOUR PRODUCT DESIGN

Products are built for customers.

 

Those customers are trying to achieve something, some would be satisfied simply by doing their “job-to-be-done” faster, cheaper, easier, etc. These are the easy improvements, what Henry Ford referred to as “faster horses.” However, simply by engaging and discussing job-to-be-done with prospective and existing customers you can uncover improvements or alternatives they would have never imagined.

​

Engineers build to specifications. Often by accident, due to a lack of input, they can end up leading product innovation without really understanding whether they’re new technical features delight, excite, or in fact are ranked unimportant by the desired users. Engineering is such an important resource it can’t be wasted and needs to be focused on winning products – getting it wrong costs time, money and missed opportunities.

​

Dial-VOC is a framework that product and marketing managers can use to help them design and embed the voice-of-customer at the heart of their innovation strategy, allowing them to not only uncover important insights but also rank them to ensure you build not only novel but must-have products.

​

​Highlights

​

  • Create focused VOC programs

  • Segment and target the right customers

  • Conduct high quality interviews

  • Extract quality information and rank needs

  • Obtain data to support and drive engineering

  • Learn which values products will resonate

  • Use data to drive marketing communications
