Many organizations have developed spreadsheet-based ROI / TCO tools to help financially justify solutions to frugal buyers.
Often these spreadsheets are developed by a field subject matter expert based on the demand of the client. However, many of these same cumbersome spreadsheets are also being used by sales reps and channel partners as their customers want and need financial justification to make purchasing decisions.
These spreadsheet-based ROI / TCO tools are meeting a need but can be difficult for users and prospects alike. There are typically issues with version control, calculation errors, output reports, credibility, ease of use, tracking, security and validation.
In this session, industry leader and ROI Guy, Tom Pisello will show you how to address these issues and more.

Business Value Summit Keynote - IDC + Alinean - Why Financial Justification /...Alinean, Inc.
Financial justification remains a requirement, this according to research by IDC’s business value consulting group, with a whopping 95% of decision makers requiring proof of business value outcomes prior to considering and approving a business purchase.
Although required to gain approval, buyers struggle with the metrics and models to provide financial justification to ever more frugal executives and buying committees, delaying or in many cases stalling the decision entirely.
If you are an IT or B2B solution provider, the research clearly indicates you can’t leave financial justification to your buyer, or worse, to an unarmed sales rep.
In this keynote presentation at the Business Value Summit in Santa Clara CA, Randy Perry VP of Business Value Consulting for IDC and Tom Pisello, CEO / Founder of Alinean discuss the increasing need for financial justification by IT and other B2B buyers and what you need to do now as a solution provider to meet and exceed this requirement.
If you are in product marketing, content development, value engineering or sales enablement, this is a must attend event, to get tangible advice on how to drive more deals, win rates and sales cycle acceleration.
Webinar: The Value of "Move the Needle": Financial Peer Comparison to Engage...Alinean, Inc.
Today’s B2B buyer doesn’t want a sales pitch. They want to know how your insights and experience can help them beat the competition.
But this is easier said than done:
• Are your sales reps empowered to engage earlier and have poignant financial discussions you’re your prospects?
• Can they compare the prospect to the competition to help them uncover issues and drive improvements?
• Can you prove how a small improvement using your solutions could directly impact their competitive position and drive significant business value improvements?
In this session, Tom Pisello, the ROI Guy, will introduce you to the new Alinean Peer Comparison application, your ticket to sales rep financial acumen and early business value engagement.
Developed in conjunction with S&P Compustat, you’ll see how this elegantly simple, yet powerful benchmarking application empowers your sales reps, pre-sales support and value engineers to quickly and easily:
• Compare your prospects to named competitors, from a database of 60,000+ worldwide companies,
• Examine the leaders, laggards and peer averages across over 30 dimensions of financial performance.
• See how small “move the needle” improvements from your proposed solutions can drive big improvements, business value and ROI.

SiriusDecisions - The Value of Value Selling & Marketing - Using ROI / TCO To...Alinean, Inc.
Your buyers are concerned about the economics of each purchase decision, and as a result, require financial justification early and often throughout the buyers journey.
At the same time, your standard product-centric content and demo-laden sales approach haven’t kept pace.
You have to change, and in order to do so, need to invest in new content, tools and training to effectively implement a value-focused sales and marketing approach. But this is easier said than done, as many organizations are scrutinizing new sales and marketing investments, spending less, not more, on content and enablement.
So, how do you make the case for more investment in value?
How do you quantify the tangible value of value, to make a solid business case?
In this interview, Peter Ostrow , Research Director from the sales and marketing advisory firm SiriusDecisions, discusses the business benefits of Value, with solid advice on how to measure the impact and prove the ROI from taking your value selling and marketing from “good” to “great”.
This session will give you the practical models and metrics to quantify and communicate the business case for Value, providing the framework to establish the right Value Marketing and Selling programs, project the potential business value and drive outcomes post deployment.

The Five Pillars of Value Marketing & Selling Success - Maximizing your ROI f...Alinean, Inc.
Featuring:
Dave Stachura – VP Customer Success, Alinean
Tom Pisello – CEO / Founder, Alinean
“If you build it, they will come” is a quote made famous in the movie Field of Dreams. While the philosophy behind this saying worked great in a Hollywood movie about a fictional baseball field built in an Iowa cornfield, applying it when launching a new value / ROI tool to your organization may prove disastrous.
Once you’ve wrapped up development on that new value / ROI tool, you now have to make sure the launch is successful. A business value / ROI tool can be a fantastic foundation to business value selling success, but to elevate to greatness, you need more.
We have seen incredible roll-out success over the past 20 years of developing and delivering value marketing and selling tools. Some launching with great adoption (>80%) and >$100M+ incremental revenue results, and some, not so much.
In this informative session, Dave Stachura, former Sales Enablement lead at AMD and Alinean’s new VP of Customer Success, will discuss the common “failure to launch” characteristics and discuss in detail the Five Pillars of Value Success: the definitive roadmap for launch success.

The document discusses sales content and how it influences buyers' decisions. It summarizes data from a survey of B2B buyers that found content provided by reps is very influential in vendor selection. Winning reps provided 22% more content overall than runners-up. Content needs to activate buyers and empower reps. To succeed, reps must uncover buyers' needs, provide personalized content, and clearly articulate their unique value proposition. The document presents frameworks to help reps diagnose needs, align solutions to benefits and ROI, and tell compelling value stories.

Several analyst firms have predicted the "Death of the B2B Sales Rep", with their research indicating how sales reps are engaging later and later in the sales cycle, when the decision is already 57% complete , and that over 1 million B2B sales reps will be in search of new jobs in 2020.
Are these findings accurate? What can you do to stay ahead of the curve?
In this “myth busting” interview, Jim Ninivaggi, the Sales Enablement Practice Director for SiriusDecisions will discuss their latest research of 1,000 B2B buyers, to separate the fact from fiction and provide specific guidance on what you need to do now to remain relevant and effective.
Tom Pisello, the ROI guy and author of The Frugalnomics Survival Guide, will be asking Jim the tough questions you need to know, about the disparities in the research, and why there is a new movement underway to #SavetheB2BSalesRep.
Unisys Case Study - New Product Launch Success - From Product Pitch to Value ...Alinean, Inc.
Assuring New Launch Success: Migrating from Product to Value
Jim Howard, Solution Architect at Unisys
Unisys, a global IT solutions company, was readying for the launch of two new products:
1. Forward! - a new converged infrastructure solution for the secure data center
2. Desktop as a Service (DaaS) – personal computing delivered more efficiently as a service.
It was important to generate immediate demand for these new products, and get new sales reps up to speed in order to effectively sell the solution.
But how could Unisys quickly and effectively educate prospects on the value of these solutions, and differentiate them uniquely from other offerings?
In this informative session, Jim Howard from Unisys will be interviewed, discussing his new product launch challenges, which are likely similar to your own, and ways he leveraged value messaging, provocative insights, value marketing / ROI tools and training to achieve success.
The document describes the features and capabilities of the Alinean ValueStory Player, which allows users to create and deliver customized presentations and reports. It allows specifying company profiles, selecting roles to communicate value to different buyers, challenging status quos, exploring challenges in detail across chapters, and quantifying costs and benefits. It also supports collaboration, brainstorming, self-discovery, and review/printing of customized reports.

The builder is accessed through an online community and provides tools for authoring, editing, and organizing vignettes into plays.
Are White Papers Dead? Advance your B2B marketing campaigns from one-size-fit...Alinean, Inc.
White papers have been the mainstay of B2B marketing campaigns for decades, but each year the effectiveness of white paper fueled marketing / demand generation (demand-gen) campaigns is on the decline. Information overload, short attention span theater and personalization expectations are just a few of the reasons why relying on white papers to drive demand / generate qualified leads is not enough.
You need to advance your marketing into the 21st century with more interactive, dynamic personalized content that articulates your value to prospects / buyers / customers.
ValueStory Marketing Tools combine visual storytelling / whiteboards, provocative insights, diagnostic assessments, financial justification / ROI / TCO calculators to deliver a personalized one-to-one engagement and white paper deliverable.

• Are your sales reps empowered to engage earlier and have poignant financial discussions you’re your prospects?
• Can they compare the prospect to the competition to help them uncover issues and drive improvements?
• Can you prove how a small improvement using your solutions could directly impact their competitive position and drive significant business value improvements?
In this session, Tom Pisello, the ROI Guy, will introduce you to the new Alinean Peer Comparison application, your ticket to sales rep financial acumen and early business value engagement.
Developed in conjunction with S&P Compustat, you’ll see how this elegantly simple, yet powerful benchmarking application empowers your sales reps, pre-sales support and value engineers to quickly and easily:
• Compare your prospects to named competitors, from a database of 60,000+ worldwide companies,
• Examine the leaders, laggards and peer averages across over 30 dimensions of financial performance.
• See how small “move the needle” improvements from your proposed solutions can drive big improvements, business value and ROI.

SiriusDecisions - The Value of Value Selling & Marketing - Using ROI / TCO To...Alinean, Inc.
Your buyers are concerned about the economics of each purchase decision, and as a result, require financial justification early and often throughout the buyers journey.
At the same time, your standard product-centric content and demo-laden sales approach haven’t kept pace.
You have to change, and in order to do so, need to invest in new content, tools and training to effectively implement a value-focused sales and marketing approach. But this is easier said than done, as many organizations are scrutinizing new sales and marketing investments, spending less, not more, on content and enablement.
So, how do you make the case for more investment in value?
How do you quantify the tangible value of value, to make a solid business case?
In this interview, Peter Ostrow , Research Director from the sales and marketing advisory firm SiriusDecisions, discusses the business benefits of Value, with solid advice on how to measure the impact and prove the ROI from taking your value selling and marketing from “good” to “great”.
This session will give you the practical models and metrics to quantify and communicate the business case for Value, providing the framework to establish the right Value Marketing and Selling programs, project the potential business value and drive outcomes post deployment.

“If you build it, they will come” is a quote made famous in the movie Field of Dreams. While the philosophy behind this saying worked great in a Hollywood movie about a fictional baseball field built in an Iowa cornfield, applying it when launching a new value / ROI tool to your organization may prove disastrous.
Once you’ve wrapped up development on that new value / ROI tool, you now have to make sure the launch is successful. A business value / ROI tool can be a fantastic foundation to business value selling success, but to elevate to greatness, you need more.
We have seen incredible roll-out success over the past 20 years of developing and delivering value marketing and selling tools. Some launching with great adoption (>80%) and >$100M+ incremental revenue results, and some, not so much.
In this informative session, Dave Stachura, former Sales Enablement lead at AMD and Alinean’s new VP of Customer Success, will discuss the common “failure to launch” characteristics and discuss in detail the Five Pillars of Value Success: the definitive roadmap for launch success.

The document discusses sales content and how it influences buyers' decisions. It summarizes data from a survey of B2B buyers that found content provided by reps is very influential in vendor selection. Winning reps provided 22% more content overall than runners-up. Content needs to activate buyers and empower reps. To succeed, reps must uncover buyers' needs, provide personalized content, and clearly articulate their unique value proposition. The document presents frameworks to help reps diagnose needs, align solutions to benefits and ROI, and tell compelling value stories.

Several analyst firms have predicted the "Death of the B2B Sales Rep", with their research indicating how sales reps are engaging later and later in the sales cycle, when the decision is already 57% complete , and that over 1 million B2B sales reps will be in search of new jobs in 2020.
Are these findings accurate? What can you do to stay ahead of the curve?
In this “myth busting” interview, Jim Ninivaggi, the Sales Enablement Practice Director for SiriusDecisions will discuss their latest research of 1,000 B2B buyers, to separate the fact from fiction and provide specific guidance on what you need to do now to remain relevant and effective.
Tom Pisello, the ROI guy and author of The Frugalnomics Survival Guide, will be asking Jim the tough questions you need to know, about the disparities in the research, and why there is a new movement underway to #SavetheB2BSalesRep.
Unisys Case Study - New Product Launch Success - From Product Pitch to Value ...Alinean, Inc.
Assuring New Launch Success: Migrating from Product to Value
Jim Howard, Solution Architect at Unisys
Unisys, a global IT solutions company, was readying for the launch of two new products:
1. Forward! - a new converged infrastructure solution for the secure data center
2. Desktop as a Service (DaaS) – personal computing delivered more efficiently as a service.
It was important to generate immediate demand for these new products, and get new sales reps up to speed in order to effectively sell the solution.
But how could Unisys quickly and effectively educate prospects on the value of these solutions, and differentiate them uniquely from other offerings?
In this informative session, Jim Howard from Unisys will be interviewed, discussing his new product launch challenges, which are likely similar to your own, and ways he leveraged value messaging, provocative insights, value marketing / ROI tools and training to achieve success.

Are White Papers Dead? Advance your B2B marketing campaigns from one-size-fit...Alinean, Inc.
White papers have been the mainstay of B2B marketing campaigns for decades, but each year the effectiveness of white paper fueled marketing / demand generation (demand-gen) campaigns is on the decline. Information overload, short attention span theater and personalization expectations are just a few of the reasons why relying on white papers to drive demand / generate qualified leads is not enough.
You need to advance your marketing into the 21st century with more interactive, dynamic personalized content that articulates your value to prospects / buyers / customers.
ValueStory Marketing Tools combine visual storytelling / whiteboards, provocative insights, diagnostic assessments, financial justification / ROI / TCO calculators to deliver a personalized one-to-one engagement and white paper deliverable.

Is ROI a Good Way to Make the Case for Change?
1. Is ROI a Good Way to Make the Case for Change?
Buying and selling of B2B solutions has fundamentally and permanently changed, an evolution called
Frugalnomics, requiring buyers to provide quantifiable proof to executives that proposed solutions will deliver
bottom-line impact, and requiring vendors to help create and deliver the quantified proof-points and business
case if they want to win the deal and avoid stalled sales cycles.
One of the best and most commonly used methods used to calculate bottom-line value of proposed projects
is via an ROI analysis. Although many may be familiar with what is done to perform an ROI analysis, it is
important to standardize the definitions as to what a typical ROI analysis is, and what key calculations are
required.
An ROI analysis, more descriptively called a discounted cash-flow analysis, is used to measure the value of a
proposed project over time. The analysis compares the cost savings and other benefits of a proposed solution
versus the total investment in order to determine whether the project makes sense. Because of this, ROI
analysis is often referred to as ―making the case for change‖, providing the analysis and proof points as to
whether the proposed project / change makes fiscal sense.
The analysis compares the ―business as usual‖ scenario, where the organization continues to operate as it
intends to without the solution (often called As Is), with the scenario where the solution is implemented (often
called To Be). The analysis usually is performed over 3 to 5 years to match the proposed lifetime/lifecycle of
the investment.
Examining the As Is (business as usual) scenario can help illuminate the cost-of-doing-nothing to buyers.
The difference between the revenue and costs in the As Is (before) scenario with those in the To Be (after)
scenario determines the bottom-line impact, and the overall cash flow of the project.
To calculate the opportunity, the analysis first starts with an understanding of revenue and cost projections
over the analysis period. The team gathers current revenue and costs, and projections of how the revenue and
costs are expected to grow without implementing the proposed solution.
2. It should be noted that in many cases, if the project may only be focused on cost savings, and revenue is not
relevant. Therefore, only the cost portion of the equation is tallied for these cost savings projects and analyses.
Next, the impact of the proposed project is simulated on the As Is revenue / cost projections to determine:
What incremental investment is required
What are the benefits – savings in IT and Business Costs, or improvements in Revenue
Simulating the impact of the solution – both the required investments and benefits - generates a To Be scenario, which when compared to the As Is
quantifies the ―ROI‖ of the project.
The simulation lets the business tally the level and duration of required investments, which add to costs
initially, usually as capital investment such as hardware / software, and over time, usually in the form of
incremental operating expenses such as service agreements, support and management costs.
The simulation also estimates the magnitude of benefits such as cost avoidance, savings and revenue
improvements, and importantly, how quickly the benefits can be realized.
Comparing the incremental costs versus the benefits, the difference between As Is and To Be, creates a cash
flow over time.
When the difference is calculated, if the results are negative over time in total, a negative cash flow, this means
the project, the To Be scenario, costs more over time than the As Is. This can be a result of the investment
being too high, or the benefits being too little to make up for the incremental investment.
If the cash flow is positive, it means that the incremental investment to implement and manage the solution is
compensated for by savings and benefits.
To make sure the cash flows make sense financially, and to compare the project with other projects and
investment options, an ROI analysis typically summarizes the cash flow into financial key indicators. These
indicators are typically:
3. Return on Investment (ROI) – ROI is a ratio of the net benefits divided by the total investment. A
higher ratio means that the projects net benefits are much higher than the investment, and the project
is often judged as less risky as a result. To calculate the value, ROI = net benefits / total investment,
where net benefits are equal to total benefits – total investment.
Net Present Value (NPV) Savings – NPV savings is a calculation that measures the net benefit of a
project in today’s dollar terms using a discount rate to discount future cash flows. Many times a project
requires up-front investment, and this is more expensive in time value of money terms compared to
future benefits, so looking at the cash flows over time assures that all cash flows over time are made
equivalent. Sometimes a project may have a positive cash flow, but because of a large upfront
investment and a long time to accumulate benefits, may actually have a negative NPV savings. A high
NPV savings indicates that the project can deliver real bottom-line impact to the organization.
Payback Period - The payback period is the time frame needed for the project to yield a positive
cumulative cash flow, which is typically specified in months. The payback period starts by comparing
cumulative costs versus cumulative benefits by month from the beginning of a project until the point
when the cumulative benefits exceed the cumulative costs. A quick payback on a project usually is a
sign of less risk.
Internal Rate of Return (IRR) – The IRR calculates the effective interest rate that the project
generates. A higher interest rate than competitive projects means that the project has a higher return
and generates more effective interest on the investment. In mathematical terms, the Internal Rate of
Return is calculated as the projected discount rate that makes the Net Present Value calculation equal
to zero. The method of calculation involves a series of guesses, making it the most difficult to
understand, but when comparing projects, one of the most effective metrics in selecting the best
comparative project.
The Bottom Line
As buyers require proof of financial benefits from each investment, sellers must create the compelling
justification content frugal buyers demand, and arm sales professionals with new tools to engage these
economic-focused buyers.

buyers justify the purchase of your solution. The tools automate the process, in easy to use customer-facing
