What is B2B Sales Experience. B2B sales experience is the experience that a business-to-business customer has while they work with you. This can include the process of how to buy, when, and what type of support they get, as well as any other interactions from your company. It is the customer’s opinion of the company that they are buying from, based on how well you handled their needs.

By Tibor Shanto. There has always been an uneasy dance involving selling and buying when it comes to trust and honesty. While it is natural to be guarded or cagey when you first meet someone new, but this goes a bit further, by both sides. While both sides expect embellishments and the most positive spins, many take it too far and over complicate things.

When you focus on a natural strength, magic happens. They say that when you spend time practicing and honing a strength you have, you can grow in that area by as much as 10xs! Investing that same effort in an area that’s not a natural strength pays little return. Imagine the improvement that a salesperson could see if they had the innate ability to ask probing questions and uncover meaningful information—and then spent time practicing and developing that ability!

My sales numbers when through the roof when I changed one simple thing: I asked for double or even triple the deal size at the end of each presentation. Before this, I used to give my presentation and automatically default to the lowest deal size and be happy if I got it. In fact, it was so bad that I even dropped the price to half the minimum amount, and I was happy if I got that!

How do you handle the following two big objections? “Your price is too high.”. “I can get a better deal/rate/price using XYZ”. Arguably, these may be the two most frustrating objections sales reps get, and interestingly, there is one technique that works amazingly well—but few sales reps use it. Instead, the vast majority of reps stumble when they get these objections, or worse: they lower their prices to try to compete.

The other day, I was speaking with a colleague about the state of sales/selling. We started talking about the irony of change, how our jobs are all about change–yet we, somehow, seem the most resistant to changing how we sell. Sales/selling has little to do with what we sell. It is strictly about change, helping our customers/prospects recognize the need to change, helping them in that change process.

This method of learning and recall works for millions of people who need instant answers to questions all the time.

Most businesses selling a product or service will be familiar with a sales funnel. You cast a wide net out to your target demographic and slowly squeeze potential customers down the funnel until you reach the end goal — that all-important sale. A sales funnel can be effective at converting potential customers into paying ones. However, not all sales funnels are created equal.

Reps want to spend time selling and closing. To do that, they need a continuous pool of contacts. And not only that, but they need the right contacts. A tool like PeopleFinder gives them the ability to do just that. No more guessing, just connecting with the right people. THE PROBLEM: Sales reps spend on average 35.2% (or ?) of their time selling. That’s only 14-hours in a 40-hour workweek.
