A Sales-Led SaaS Positioning Masterclass with Ton Dobbe

B2B SaaS positioning masterclass: How to stop competing on features, shorten sales cycles, and win 80% of your deals.

Most sales-led software companies are commoditized, losing deals to discounting and feature comparisons.

Long sales cycles, low win rates, and constant price pressure are symptoms of broken positioning and differentiation.

In this season finale, Ton Dobbe (author of The Remarkable Effect) reveals the exact B2B sales strategy and positioning framework he used to take win rates from 20% to 80% at Unit Four - same product, different approach.

Ton has 30 years of experience helping B2B software companies break through growth barriers.

This conversation covers: sales-led SaaS strategy, problem definition, customer qualification, creating differentiation competitors can't copy, and the counter-intuitive sales confidence framework that creates "pole position" in buyers' minds before demos.

What You'll Learn:

✅ The #1 reason software companies get commoditized (and the single focus area that fixes it)

✅ How to find differentiation that competitors literally cannot copy

✅ Why what customers tell you is their problem is actually just the symptom

✅ The "midnight sweating test" for validating if a problem is worth solving

✅ The 4-level sales confidence framework that shortens sales cycles and stops discounting

✅ How to create customers who become fans and sell for you

✅ The Value-Viability-Volume framework for building remarkable companies

✅ Why "better" loses to "different" every single time

✅ How to qualify out bad-fit customers in 10 minutes (and why that's a good thing)

Perfect For:

• B2B SaaS founders struggling with long sales cycles
• Sales leaders tired of competing on price
• Marketing teams trying to differentiate in crowded markets
• Anyone building a sales-led software company

Key Takeaway:

Stop trying to be better.

Start being different.

When you nail your positioning around a specific problem for a specific context, sales becomes about helping customers see problems they didn't know they had - and suddenly YOU become the only logical choice.
