For four straight years, Salesforce has found that over 75% of buyers want sellers to always act as a trusted advisor. On top of that, they want sellers to meet them “wherever” they are. That’s a lot of pressure to add on top of economic uncertainty and rising quota. How can a salesperson meet all of these standards while also enjoying what they do?

There is nothing worse than having to mark an opportunity record in your CRM as "closed lost." The second-worst prompt is "closed lost reason." The field in your CRM may have a drop-down menu, so you can easily document the reason you lost the deal. It stings a little to acknowledge that another salesperson won the client's business. It is proof your competitor did something different, something that gave them an edge in creating a preference.

We need to develop a deeper understanding of the value creation/realization process. Too many sellers tend to think about value creation as something sellers create “for” customers. Sellers focus on the value customers receive in the implementation of their solution, or “value realization.” Sellers focus, often using sophisticated analytic tools, on the return customers would get in implementation.
