inbound maintaining control of the sale final v1a
DESCRIPTION
Whether you sell a B2B product or service the internet gives your customers the option to shop. All a customer needs to do is go on Facebook and ask 500 friends, what's better SAP or Oracle? The sales person for these vendors has absolutely no control. The biggest problem in this situation for B2Bs is that they have no predictable, revenue growth model for the upcoming years. As an SMB for an owner that needs to make payroll, or a mid-market CEO that has to ask for more money from investors, or the Chairman of the Board who has to make the shareholders happy, businesses in sales and marketing need to start taking back control of the sale. In this session, I am going to share 6 sure ways to keep control of the sale while your customers are shopping.TRANSCRIPT
