Consultative Selling
The term Consultative Selling is a commonly used one in the B2B sales world. Since consultative selling is a discovery-based approach, it places the sales professional in the privileged role of a partner or advisor to the customer against the stereotypical insistent sale representative who merely looks at pushing a deal to closure at any cost. A Consultative Selling approach is adopted to resolve a pain the customer faces and it is the resolution of the pain that constitutes a “solution”. Also, products are just one of the elements that lead to a solution.
GrowthSqapes’ Consultative Selling Solution develops sales capability to enable the salesperson to diagnose and understand the existential issues, problems and challenges faced by the customer and then recommend a bespoke solution as a consultant/partner.
