CLOUT (Differentiation by Selling to Authority with Authority.)

The more skilful you are at getting top decision makers involved in your sales process the more sales you will close. In addition your sales cycle will be shorter and your deal size will be larger. This presentation illustrates how to gain audience with the person who has Purchase Authority and Budget Control. (P.A.B.C.)

Areas of Differentiation covered include:

  • How to create the warmth of a referral in its absence.

  • How to successfully engage gatekeepers.

  • Who's who? Understanding the Labyrinth of Influence and Authority (L.I.A.).

  • How to establish Business Equality with C-Suite decision makers, and understanding how they think and what they expect from those they give their loyalty to.

  • How to leverage the Trends, Issues, Threats and Opportunities (T.I.T.O.) your prospects face to capture their attention.

  • Ask the right questions – not the wrong ones – to avoid finding yourself on the outside looking in!
