Join the most tactical sales newsletter in the world: https://hubs.ly/Q01-R33G0 FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Ask your inbound leads what prompted them to take the call. Start your calls with outbound leads by calling out that they might not know what you do and explaining the problems you solve. Then make the transition into discovery.  Categorize buyers’ answers into problem language or solutions language. Buyers often answer “problem” questions with solutions, so ensure you get the problem language. Avoid discovery fatigue with a mix of emotionally intelligent techniques. (Examples: quick customer stories, summarizing, questions) PATH TO PRESIDENT’S CLUB Co-Founder & CEO @ Stealth Startup Director of Sales & Go-To-Market @ Gong Co-Founder & CEO @ Conversature Regional Sales Manager - New Business @ InsideSales.com  RESOURCES DISCUSSED Join our weekly newsletter Things you can steal

Join the most tactical sales newsletter in the world: https://hubs.ly/Q01-R33G0 FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Don’t block yourself by prospecting and meeting with non-champions / non-economic buyers / below-the-line prospects. Use your champion to pre-brief your economic buyer before you present to them so that you don’t have to spend time demoing. Identify the right champion by seeing who takes the next steps, who gets listened to when they speak, and gauging the rigor of their questions. Play the negotiation table with ALL of your asks. If you get an ask on pricing, decline it, but in return give a non-monetary ask. PATH TO PRESIDENT’S CLUB Regional Director Majors-West & Central @ ThoughtSpot Regional Sales Manager @ Expanse Inc.
