Theodore Levitt, a marketing professor at Harvard Business School taught his students that people don’t buy drills; they buy quarter-inch holes. No one wants to buy a drill , they buy the outcome the drill provides them. Too many salespeople have been convinced that their solution is superior to that of their competition. Most companies have a solution that can produce the same outcome as their competitors.

If you believe that selling is difficult, know that buying is often more difficult. Part of what makes buying challenging is that buyers research on their own to avoid engaging with salespeople. Some are buying without fully exploring their options, which can lead to buyer’s remorse. Spending time with a good salesperson can prevent this.

Most of the time, as sellers, we focus on our self interests. As a result we spend a lot of time looking at our selling process and the things we want to do to our customers. We focus on the things that drive our success, perhaps not really understanding what the customer is trying to achieve and their success. Sometimes, though rarely, we think about their buying process.

Amazon is by far the largest e-commerce in the US, making up more than 37% of the US e-commerce market. Because of its vast customer base, it’s an attractive marketplace for online sellers with the current number of sellers exceeding 500,000 individuals. If you aren’t already selling on Amazon, you’re missing out on a lot. Anyone can meet the requirements and become a seller on Amazon, but not everyone makes it to the top where they earn upwards of $1 million from Amazon alone.
