7. In-Depth Evaluation of Critical Potential for Best Match: Territory Relationship
System Sales
IMAGE BUILDING
Tailors image to fit customer expectations; adapts to different situations with sincerity and realism, taking care
to avoid obvious role-playing or acting; recognizes the value of first impressions; studies the image or style
with which the customer is most comfortable and adopts the dress, conversational style, and language most
trusted by that customer
Skill/Capability Level: In order to make the first impression count, Mr. Moreno will generally research customers
carefully before making contact. He strives to understand each customer's expectations and will have ready testimonials
or other proofs to establish his credibility with that particular individual. For the most part, he is willing to tailor his image
to fit different customer expectations from the shop floor to the boardroom. He works actively to match the dress and
conversation style favored by the customer without being perceived as a phony.
PROMOTES CUSTOMER RELATIONS BY SOLICITING
FEEDBACK
Seeks customer feedback regularly to verify satisfaction and uncover minor issues which could escalate if left
unattended; solicits suggestions for continuous improvement and demonstrates personal attention to the
customer even when there is no problem; listens to feedback without judgment or defensiveness, remaining
focused on results rather than personal feelings; stays logical and objective and refrains from expressing
personal frustrations to the customer; ensures future business by anticipating and removing potential sources
of dissatisfaction
Skill/Capability Level: Mr. Moreno is consistent about regularly calling on customers and asking for their feedback and
suggestions. He seeks input for continual improvement and demonstrates personal attention to the customer even when
there are no problems evident. He stays objectively focused on increasing customer satisfaction and increasing the
longevity of the relationship. He listens to customer feedback and suggestions for improvement without becoming
defensive.
NEW BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
Takes a proactive approach to finding additional business opportunities; is comfortable with the networking
and cold calling needed to find new prospects and customers; takes the lead in meeting people and building a
contact base for new business development

and repeat business. He places a high priority on finding prospective customers and works actively to expand his
contact base. He is comfortable cold calling prospects and will take charge of the contact to promote interest in his
products or services. He will be conspicuously active in organizations or events in which prospective customers are

8. MAXIMIZES RESULTS BY PUSHING FOR QUOTA
ATTAINMENT IN DIRECT SALES
Takes pride in consistently meeting or exceeding quota and assumes personal responsibility for monthly sales
attainment; continually pushes self and uses that stress as a positive driver to focus on the tactics which will
produce the necessary sales results
Skill/Capability Level: Mr. Moreno is driven to achieve or exceed targeted results and uses sales as a means to get
there. He strives to be a top producer, both in his career and life.
SEEKS RECOGNITION AS A PROFESSIONAL
Uses position and prestige to positively influence others; enjoys public recognition and acclaim of his
achievements; wants to be seen as important and establishes credibility through title and credentials
Skill/Capability Level: Mr. Moreno may prefer a politically correct, low-profile approach and hence, might not be able to
summon the public recognition necessary to influence others. Potential followers, unaware of his accomplishments, may
question his authority.
Coaching Suggestions: Ensure that Mr. Moreno gets the recognition he deserves, but be certain that it occurs in a
low-key fashion that does not cause him embarrassment. For instance, praise him and his group for their efforts so that
he is not singled out of a crowd. Or, arrange for him to receive acknowledgement as part of a "Manager of the Week" or
"Salesman of the Month" program. This way, his name joins those of others who have reached the same level of
success.
ADAPTS APPROACH TO DIFFERENT BUYER
MOTIVATIONS

sales approach to fit different buyer motivations; influences or persuades others by determining how the other
individual can benefit, and then communicates those advantages
Skill/Capability Level: Mr. Moreno generally recognizes that individual prospects come to the table with different
buying motivations, and he understands the need to alter his approach in order to highlight the most important benefits
and to accommodate each of the various preferences.
