#516 - How to Differentiate Yourself in Every Sales Cycle | Chad Prezlomski

FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS Burndown: Every day before the end of the month, make your team put all open deals in a spreadsheet with a two-line update. When you’re rolling out a methodology like command of the message, you can’t stop at the initial training. Every single new product launch needs to be trained in that framework, otherwise, it’s forgotten. Make sure your reps tell you what role you need to play on calls! Your CRO can always freestyle, but they much prefer you tell them what to do. 80% of the upward communications should be focused on the problems you need to solve. Often times your CEO just wants to know that you’re aware of the problems.

FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Anytime you’re asking about a get — sell why it’s important to the business. IE: You moving faster allows us to get ahead in our heavy implementation season. Assign values to the different “gets” from a customer and put together a slide that walks the customer through these. When turning down bad deals, walk them through how finance wouldn’t ever agree to multi-year flat deal, but how they can achieve a similar outcome with a different commercial structure. If someone slips on a timeline commitment, you might have to honor the number, but you can always ask for another get in return.

Download Jason Bay’s Cold Calling Framework FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Open a Cold Call with a permission-based opener to get prospects to opt into talking to you. Your tone of voice is key because it’s hard to hang up on a genuinely nice person. Go for the reverse pitch by sharing what is top of mind for their peers. Start with what is relevant to them, not what you’re trying to accomplish. Hook prospects into scheduling the next meeting by finding problems you can solve. Start with the problems they share with their peers. If you know the prospect is a good fit, don’t ask if they want that next meeting at the end of the call. Be assumptive and roll right into scheduling. PATH TO PRESIDENT’S CLUB Founder & CEO @ Outbound Squad Owner @ Jason Bay Consulting Director of Marketing @ Chamber DS, Inc.

FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS Start & End of Week 15min stand-ups: Start each week by listing out by individual what you are going to accomplish this week, it should be measurable. Breakdown calls into the sum of their parts: intro x discovery x demo x closing, but then coach to the THEMES across the parts. Situation-Behavior-Impact Feedback: Describe the situation (put them back on the scene), remind them of their behavior/what they did, explain the impact of it. Send the 3x3x3 to your CEO every day on Friday: 3 Up for the Week. 3 Down for the Week. 3 for Next Week.

FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS The person asking the questions is the person running the call. While it can feel good to respond to rapid fire questions, make sure you don't lose control of the call by seeking to understand the 'why' behind the question. Objections are opinions. Instead of jumping to overcome them, seek to understand them, by identifying if the objection is rooted in a lack of why change, why now, or why us. Use the 2 minute call prep drill: Call Purpose, Desired outcome, Predict their Pains, Guess Behavior Style. Exchange of information on a sales call should be bilateral, not unilateral. Make the exchange of information equitable by "reversing" (answer a question with a question).
