A Sample of Techniques

The Psychology of Influence -
accelerate your new business
The
'Psychology of Influence' is a set of proven ways to influence buying behaviour.
They derive from extensive studies of human responses to certain
key buying stimuli. Just some of these stimuli are summarised
below:
|
|
-
Pain/Dissatisfaction
-
Money
-
Effort
-
Time
-
Pleasure
-
Popularity
|
These factors have a unique
power and should be the
mainstay of any successful growth, sales or marketing programme.
They have all been shown to multiply the buying response, increase
sales and ultimately make a unique contribution to
business growth.
How you can apply the
psychology of influence
You need to know how to use
these factors, particularly those factors on the left of the list, but
when you do you will understand why they are so effective. In
general they are applied in both selling and marketing cycles to
multiply interest levels and the buying response.
In the Business Breakthrough
Programme you will be given full access and understanding of these
factors and how to apply them in your specific case.
In practice they are VERY
powerful and have been used to achieve, in the right circumstances,
improvements in response rates of over 300%.

Active
Referral -

position in our network of trusted companies and individuals.

Value
Innovation -
diamond-tip your product.
Value Innovation is a very
powerful methodology for product and market development. Created
over a decade ago by W. Chan
Kim and R. Mauborgne it is now being
used by a significant number of companies to sharpen-up their product and marketing
positioning.
In its original form it
proposed an alternative growth strategy - one based upon developing
highly targeted solutions to well defined markets.
How you can apply value
innovation
We have significantly
developed the original concepts of value innovation to work for the
mid-market and start-up company.
By using these techniques
you can
identify the 'diamond-tip(s)' of your solution portfolio or product,
translate them into their own piece of Sales DNA and use these as
a very powerful way to achieve breakthrough growth.
This approach is
particularly well suited to mid-market companies that are trying to
compete with much larger enterprises. It is very powerful, but
does require an investment in success.

Magic Box -
tell it well - sell it well.
A "Magic
Box.... (yeah!)" I
hear you say...!
More
correctly this is called the 9-Box Value Proposition™, but even that
name doesn't
describe it much better, because it actually contains over 25 boxes and
150+ critical success factors for successful selling.
What
the Magic Box is - is the capture of all of the key factors that
you need in order to successfully accelerate the sales and marketing of your
product or solution.
It
captures all of things that make a 'real' difference in the successful
selling and marketing of any product. Things that are often known
by those that can sell the solution successfully, but unknown to those
that are responsible for the business growth and breakthrough.
How you can apply the Magic Box
We recommend the 9-Box exercise as the prelude for any
serious sales or business growth initiative because
its 9-Box format structures the
selling factors in such logical way - that
it can then be used by any proficient sales person to sell much more
effectively.
This is an exhaustive analysis that looks at each of the
factors that influence the buying decision - from the problem adopted, pains
and trigger points to
the unique business concept and qualification criteria. And we would not leave home without one.
In practice the 9-Box forms the DNA of all downstream
sales and marketing, from web site content, marketing collateral, sales
interview techniques, presentations and proposals. It is an
invaluable sales and marketing resource.

ROI Selling -
sharpen your
sales.
Successful growth
companies are increasingly turning to ROI Selling as
a way to create strategic alignment, reducing sales cycles and
increasing competitive advantage. An ROI solution selling approach
helps any sales force, consultant and channel partner prove and
improve the value that clients receive from your solutions. But
in itself even ROI Selling is not enough, so we have augmented
it with a combination of some of the worlds better sales systems
to create a very powerful selling formula.
This is
NOT just putting together a compelling ROI business case. It
involves a complex mix of selling styles through the key selling stages:
-
Using the 'Magic
Box' to align selling and buying
-
Using ROI
Selling in Lead Generation and Prospect Capture
-
Using the
'Psychology of Influence' to maximise buying behaviour
-
Using ROI
Selling in Peer Comparison and Competitive Position
-
Using Solution
Selling, Sander Selling and some subtle sales linguistics to
augment the skills of persuasion
-
Using ROI
Selling in Enterprise Selling
-
Using Advanced
Account Management and Customer Relationship strategies to
maximise customer spend.
Why is ROI Selling
so critical to business growth?
In a recent
study:
79% of CFOs, CIOs and
IT executives rate financial justification as important for IT
purchase approvals however around 65% of buyers indicate that
they do not have the knowledge or tools needed to do ROI
calculations.
The important thing is that
ROI analysis cannot be left to the
prospect alone because they
typically do not know how to quantify the value or
differentiating value of your solution and can take months to
perform the justification, slowing your sales and sales cycle
significantly.
This is further
demonstrated in a recent study by Ernst and Young where:
81% of buyers expect
IT vendors to quantify value proposition of proposed solutions
and 61% of buyers rate a vendor’s ability to quantify their
value proposition as important in the vendor selection process.
How you can apply ROI Selling
Using ROI Selling
techniques you will learn how we can help you to sell more
successfully to frugal buyers – helping to improve selling
effectiveness, reduce sales cycles and improve competitive
advantage. A completely customized Enterprise ROI Selling
Program can be developed and deployed for your specific goals
and solutions in as little as 30 days.
ROI Selling should
provide the following sales advantages:
-
Power
marketing campaigns to generate and capture leads
-
Empowers
team to uncover opportunities and engage executive level
prospects
-
Easily quantifies
the business case for the proposed solution(s) including:
project costs, direct and indirect benefits, risks,
strategic benefits, ROI, TCO, IRR, NPV, payback period, P/L,
Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow impacts
-
Accelerates sales
cycles by 30-40%
-
Reduces
discounting by 20-30%
-
With a
cost-justification report and business case, it is estimated
that a project is 60% more likely to be approved.
-
Increases selling
effectiveness by around 60%
-
Improves up-sell
and cross-sell opportunities by 30-40%
-
Drives unique
competitive advantage
-
Integrates with
current selling methodologies.

selling methodologies that can measurably increase your direct
