The game has changed. Cold calling, marketing collateral, template proposals, two-hour business lunches, deals on the golf course and the selling system you subscribed to for 10 years?

Dead end.

A new era has emerged where more sophisticated and demanding buyer’s carefully guard their time and approach any buying decision with caution, scrutiny and rigor that simply didn’t exist a few years prior. And earning a partnership through a competitive decision cycle with today’s Buyer requires advanced Sales PROCESS, SKILL and STRATEGY.

This presentation provides 10 principles to ignite sales success, sell like a Rock Star and build a client community of brand evangelists in the knowledge economy.

Rock Star Selling Presentation Transcript

“Those that build great companies understand that the ultimate throttle on growth is not markets, technology or competition. It’s one thing above all others: the ability to get and keep enough of the right people.”

Are You Good Enough To Getan Appointment With Susan
“
I love the viewpoints of consultants and vendors.
They are truly valuable. But I also don’t have time
(nor does anyone else) for multiple one on one calls
with multiple consultants I know little about.
I got 17 cold calls, yes 17, last week from vendors. And
I hate not being able to call them all back (because I
don’t want to be rude). But truly, from a time
perspective, I just can’t.
-Susan, Buyer & Decision Maker
Fortune 500 Company

“
What Does it Take to be Great?
In study after study, of composers, basketball players, fiction writers, ice-skaters, concert pianists, chess players, master criminals, this number comes up again and again.
Ten thousand hours is equivalent to roughly three hours a day, or 20 hours a week, of practice over 10 years…
No one has yet found a case in which true world-class expertise was accomplished in less time. It seems that it takes the brain this long to assimilate all that it needs to know to achieve true mastery.
