My learnings on B2B sales for a market place
1. Ask, listen & learn
2. Nothing can substitute a personal meeting
3. Always punch above your weight
4. Be persistent & don’t be discouraged by rejection
5. Create aligned incentives
6. Don’t be too timid to use negotiation tactics
7. Be short-term pragmatic and long-term dogmatic on customizing vs.
setting standards
8. Competence pays off
9. Understand the buyer’s organization, key players and their interest
10. Formalize and scale the sales process; discipline
