Understanding what your customers value is one of the key things you need to understand.

If you don’t understand what your client values, then you’re in trouble.

One of the mistakes that many salespeople make is they present the price early, without actually discovering what the client may value.

The flaw with presenting the price is that the person gets to choose the price before the person in front of them.

What is the sauce?

I think it’s the ability to differentiate your key benefits and positioning the change from where they are now, to where they want to be in the future. The value you add is in the middle. It’s often the ‘bridge’ – to use an analogy – to get to the desired result.

Does your product or service solve the problem better than what they currently have, but better, simpler?

These differences do matter to your client, you must try and present the difference before you ever get to the price.

Sit alongside your client

The new sell is trust. The clients in this new normal are more cautious, not as committal, unsure and afraid.

Never forget though, that you are both in the business to produce profits, for you, your company and your customer.

What drives your customers’ trust in you?

  1. They want you to provide a service, product, a better life, or something they need to happen to them.
  2. They have to believe in their heart and head that they are making as much as you or more out of the deal than you.
  3. Are you different enough for them to change to you?

These days customers want to feel as if you are on their side, and what you are selling is more valuable than the price. If you get them to that point then the price is not a factor, I promise.
