- 12. Our Approach – Our Competitive Advantage
Culture & Campaigns Consulting Barrett 28 Day Sales
Capability & Training & Coaching Research Challenge
Our Competitive Advantage – The 21st Century Sales Specialists
The ‘sales’ times - they are a changing… At no other time in the history of the sales profession are we witnessing
such dramatic shifts in how we do business - products are replicated in ‘minutes’, people are more informed, the
world is interconnected like never before and clients want to interact with ‘business people’ who can sell and think
about possibility. Clients are looking for partners to assist them map a pathway forward into the future. They
recognise that true value lies, not in a product, but in the collaboration of ideas. However too many sales team are
stuck in the 20th Century with a ‘Product Mindset’ and so are many of our competitors.
Barrett are specialists in 21st century Sales Culture, Capability, and Campaigns and focus on helping sales leaders
and professionals achieve Sales Mastery in a 21st Century world. Although we are small in size compared to our
direct competitors, who are usually larger international training firms, we ‘punch well above our weight’ when it
comes to delivering relevant, dynamic, results oriented projects.
Same, Same but Different
Clients are also realising the value in using Australian based research regarding sales competencies, training and
assessment content for their sales people. For instance research is clearly showing that Australian and NZ sales
cultures are different from our USA sales colleagues. American sales management and training and procedures
adhere to US presupposed values and perceptions, and may not be optimal, or even suitable, for other countries.
Research is showing that it is often better to access country and culturally specific training for your sales people.
That is why BARRETT has invested heavily in developing Australian based content to suit our market. Our research
and work has given BARRETT a tremendous insight into the contemporary view of selling, trends and the wide
variety of sales practices that exist in both Australia and overseas. BARRETT also works across the Asia and Pacific
Region introducing contemporary, relevant sales practices to these markets. BARRETT works in partnership with
people to deliver a holistic and sustainable approach to business growth and sales performance in organisations.
