Uh-Oh, it’s the No-Po As the political landscape becomes more complex, the probability of selling to the powerless decision-makers are multiplying daily as departments which traditionally held budgets and decision-makers who had signing authority are quickly disappearing. Salespeople are finding they are selling to the wrong people otherwise known as the No-Po’s- people who have No Power, No Potential and No Purchase order will ever come from it. These people hold prestigious titles such as Managers of IT, Systems Analysts, Training Directors and Network Administrators are powerless in terms of budgets.

This slide illustrates how these two can work together and complement one another. Explain how both must be combined and synchronized together to increase response.

Group Activity Organize and collect all voice mail and email samples received from participants Play the voice mail message while reviewing their emails- to analyze and verbal and written stamp Time estimate for this section: 15 minutes
- Trainer Notes When selling in a complex or enterprise landscape, it is important to have multiple touch points on a lead before closing it. This slide illustrates the multiple touch rule and highlights unique and different reasons to connect. A good way to move something through the funnel is by touching a lead multiple times with different reasons to call or email. Keep in mind your efforts are working in tandem with marketing. Discussion Question What are other ways to touch your prospects? Time estimate on this page: 7 minutes
- Trainer Notes Start a discussion on winning subject lines and ask team members to share which subject lines receive higher response rates. Encourage they test subject lines. This slide includes the top ten winning subject lines which each ensure a high open rate. Review the winning formula on crafting strong subject lines which is to include Cisco on the subject line and combine it with the name of the prospective company. Combining two companies on the subject line ensures the email will be opened. Also, the length of the subject line should be under 35 characters. As participants determine the right length of subject lines, this slide confirms studies reveal email subject lines with 35 or less characters are being opened. Time estimate on this page: 10 minutes
- Gerhard now poses questions on issues stemming from change in corporate power structure and the difficulties of identifying power buyers It’s getting harder to find power today; Too Many Layers of Management Title Mania Prospects have less time and grant less / shorter meetings Non-linear Organizations M&A / consolidation Risk Aversion Committee Decisions Educated Buyers Distributed Workforce Can tap into Social profiles for mid management but far ewer social profiles on C-suite, especially for F1000
- Greg discusses the completeness / accuracy of the prospect profiles
- Trainer Notes Now that all the questioning categories have been introduced and team members have the cards you have assigned to them (from the previous exercise) do not show this page yet. Ask everyone to hold on to their questioning category, instruct team members to line up in the order in which they think these categories belong. They must line up in order of the sales cycle, from beginning to end. They must determine where these questions would be asked in the sales cycle, at the beginning or at the end. Watch them line up, do not make suggestions to the order. Once they have lined up, ask each person to explain why their category belongs in that order. Have them also provide a definition of that category (see next page for definitions) Ultimately, it must follow the order of this thermometer. The lowest would be current environment which is the first order of questioning. The learning point is to ask questions in the right order and to start from the bottom and work your way up. ***Note, do not move into presentation mode but continue asking questions walking up the thermometer. The goal is to move things along on this thermometer. The next page provides example questions in each category. Show these before you go into the activity. ???Group Activity – will rewrite once Josiane runs through this. 1 st Activity- Have teams line up to discuss the questioning order and why Debrief Questions after 1 st Group Activity What order do you think your category belongs in and why? What two categories will keep a sales from closing? (Answer: the Pain (Business Needs) and Power (Decision-Making process) How many of you believe you can ask all of these categories on your calls? 2 nd Activity- Assign groups of 3’s to role play this qualification model. Each team will have a Epocrates salesperson, customer and observer. They must call to follow-up from a lead and start the qualification process. The goal is to get to as many categories as possible in the short time (3 minutes) while the observer checks off each category. Three rounds of this, everyone rotate roles and last round will be based on the customer having no time to talk. Get webinar lead or new prospect. Debrief Questions after 2 nd Group Activity How many questioning categories did you ask? Do you believe it is possible to ask these on one call?
