SHIFT Open Finance Community’s Post

The Sales Bootcamp and our SHIFT members were put through a drill in Strategic Sales 💼 Thank you so much to our hosts James Varga and Charles Talbot for putting on a brilliant session with such valuable insights into enterprise sales processes. There was so much strong content but the main points that resonated with us were; ➡️Multi-threading; how you need to reach and nurture multiple contacts at your target clients to build momentum and avoid the risk of your champion leaving! ➡️Consultative selling; don’t sell, ask for advice and deeply learn about the client to identify and solve a real pain. Forcing a sale to someone who doesn’t want it can hurt you in the long term. ➡️Be human; people buy from people and the more you are interested in them the more interested they will be in you. How can your service/product help them, not just the business? This was a must-see so if you missed it then you can watch the recording on the SHIFT Slack. Also, the amount of insight we got in these 45 minutes, we can’t imagine how value you would get by spending the day with James and Charles, see their workbook and have access to monthly check-ins. So make sure to sign-up to their Sales Accelerator for Startups (SAS) Bootcamp here: https://lnkd.in/er3WgMm8 There are only a few tickets left and SHIFT members can get an exclusive discount! 🤑 #SHIFT #Webinar #SalesBootcamp
