7 TIPS FOR DELIVERING A
WINNING SALES PRESENTATION
Knowing how to deliver a presentation
is IMPORTANT because…
presentations can
cost you clients
BAD
HOW can you deliver
a winning sales presentation?
Others think it is
AN UNNECESSARY EVIL.
Get to the point.
1
Your clients are
BUSY
Time is their most
precious asset.
So, DON'T
waste it!
Arrive early to
set up your
presentation.
Avoid long
introductions.
Get to the point within the first 5 minutes.
Others think it is
AN UNNECESSARY EVIL.
Ask questions.
2
Use questions to clarify your points.
For instance,
you might ask…
“Is this how
you’d define
success?”
“Have I prioritized
your goals correctly?”
“Is this a challenge for your company?”
“Have you considered
this strategy before?”
Others think it is
AN UNNECESSARY EVIL.
Sell a vision first.
3
DON'T begin the meeting
by talking about yourself!
Instead, focus on
selling a vision first.
Show clients how
you can help them...
…beat the
competition…
…attract new customers…
…retain current
customers…
…and increase
profit margins.
Others think it is
AN UNNECESSARY EVIL.
Lead with stories, not data.
4
Clients are realistic about data.
They’ve seen projects fail
despite the glowing data.
And they’ve seen projects
succeed without any data.
Stories resonate with people.
Tell stories first, then
use supporting data.
Talk about customer
experiences…
…and competitor moves.
Others think it is
AN UNNECESSARY EVIL.
Use PowerPoint or Keynote wisely.
5
Most slides are too complex.
Avoid using
too much text
Simplify
complex graphics

Others think it is
AN UNNECESSARY EVIL.
Keep it short.
6
Confirm how much time
your prospect has for the
presentation.
Leave time for Q & A.
NEVER exceed the time allotted.
Others think it is
AN UNNECESSARY EVIL.
Have a clear agenda.
7
Begin with the
challenges
your client is
overlooking.
Move on to the benefits
your solution will provide.
Then, present your plan.
Next, briefly
discuss your
company.
Finally, close the deal.
