The Gist: The legacy approaches to the sales conversation have created a form of commoditization. In these approaches, conversation order is a well-worn path that prevents differentiation. For salespeople who want to be treated as partners, there is a new sales conversation that creates greater value. The structure of the legacy sales conversation was sound in its time, but like everything else, it must adapt to a new business environment.

By Tibor Shanto. One of the reasons I like sales is you don’t need an MBA to succeed. It helps, no doubt, but a lot of MBAs fail at sales. Mostly because it is about what you do, not about what you think or believe. Which is why it is a surprise that many who avoided academic endeavours in the past, want to do so much research. Ask most sellers their view on research, most will respond without a thought, “it is an absolute must.

This applies to prosperous companies as well as those that have recently started their activities on the market. Therefore, it’s very important to use the right tools and services for collecting leads, developed to solve such problems.

The Gist: One of the primary obstacles to better results is a refusal to unlearn poor techniques. Many still believe that all that is needed to produce greater results is “more activity.”. Unlearning and relearning is a better and more certain path to greater effectiveness. “The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.” ?

As roadmaps for best practices, sales playbooks matter. But now, as we emerge from the maelstrom of the pandemic, they matter more than ever. To start this playbook conversation, let’s build our understanding through one of our favorite methods – the sports analogy. I wrote an article a while back comparing sales playbooks to soccer corner kicks. In a sport with very few settled situations, they present unique opportunities for strategy.

The Gist: Your clients have expectations for how you use the time they give you. It is important to give them what they need in order to move forward in the conversation. The new sales conversation has shifted to new areas where buyers need greater help. While some decision-makers and decision-shapers still have “ legacy expectations ,” more and more, they are left unimpressed and unsatisfied by their conversations with salespeople.

Documents are the backbone of enterprise operations, but they are also a common source of inefficiency. From buried insights to manual handoffs, document-based workflows can quietly stall decision-making and drain resources. For large, complex organizations, legacy systems and siloed processes create friction that AI is uniquely positioned to resolve.

I believe that any business model should underscore the fact that we’re living in a time in which a shared economy is crucially important. I should also point out that many systems that began as “shared” models ended up on the opposite end of the spectrum—Uber being a classic example. In its beginning, many took to it and were excited because they were bringing home decent money, but this is no longer always the case.

As an employee, you might come across many situations where you’ll be required to provide proof of income. After all, you’re employed, right? Producing a copy of your pay stub might be the easiest way to prove your income. But things will not always go as planned, considering not all companies provide pay stubs to their employees.

The Gist: Conversations are better than automation. Use automation only when your outcome doesn’t require creating value. It is a mistake to believe more is better than better. Whenever your competitors reduce something to a transaction, you can create an immediate competitive advantage by treating it as something more. Making that thing important enough to create value for your client or prospective client provides enough differentiation to improve your position.

From word-of-mouth. Bill.com at IPO saw 50% of its new customers coming from word-of-mouth and second-time buyers.
