Are we
at Power?

• Are we at risk?
• Do we need to partner to get to Power?

What is our
prospect’s
reason to
change?
• Is our solution connected to resolving
our prospect’s business issue?
• Individual objectives, imperatives, drivers,
KPIs may be incomplete
• Wrestling with identifying the value/impact of
our solution? Good chance we don’t have
business issue confirmed
• Remember — VALUE accrues to the business
issue — not just to problem-solving

© 2020 ValueSelling Associates, Inc. | Creator of the ValueSelling Framework®
Is our solution
differentiated?
• What is unique or better about
our solution?
• All that matters is the prospect’s perception
• Why would a prospect require that
uniqueness?
• Prospect must articulate in some way that
we’re their best solution
• No Differentiated VisionMatch? Let’s be
deliberate and make visible unrecognized
business issues and problems that only our
solution can address!

What’s the
personal
motivation?
• People are motivated for
their own reasons…not ours
• Uncover and connect to WII-FM
• Helping our prospect achieve his/her individual
goals is critical to creating urgency
10. © 2020 ValueSelling Associates, Inc. | Creator of the ValueSelling Framework®
© 2020 ValueSelling Associates, Inc. | Creator of the ValueSelling Framework®
Is it worth it?
• What criteria will our prospect use
to justify their decision?
• Can the impact on their business be measured
and quantified?
• Do they believe the ROI or value?
• Are there any other initiatives that have a
bigger impact?
• Value is customer-specific!

Are we at
Power?
What is our
prospect’s
reason to
change?
Is our solution
differentiated?
What’s the
personal
motivation?
Is it worth it?

© 2020 ValueSelling Associates, Inc. | Creator of the ValueSelling Framework®
Do we
understand
our prospect’s
process?
• Evaluation, decision and procurement
• What happens after they select
a vendor?
• Who is able to sign?
• Are there phases, steps?
• How long does it take for a purchase order to
be issued?
• Can various processes be conducted
simultaneously, i.e., legal review?
13. © 2020 ValueSelling Associates, Inc. | Creator of the ValueSelling Framework®
© 2020 ValueSelling Associates, Inc. | Creator of the ValueSelling Framework®
Does our
prospect know
and own the
Plan?
• Is it mutually-agreed upon?
• Joint ownership
• Based on customer requirements
• Shaped to include the items we know will
lead to success
• Is it in writing?
• The end date…when the customer’s business
issue is resolved, Value is realized
One key aspect: have they agreed to the Plan?

Is timing
critical to
our prospect?
• Is the timing of the expense for our
services an issue for our client?
─Year-end budget dollars may need to be used
─Expenses may be postponed to make quarter or year
earnings goal
• Critical for each of us to understand
and manage…get creative, if possible
15. © 2020 ValueSelling Associates, Inc. | Creator of the ValueSelling Framework®

Are there
unaddressed
objections?
• Unaddressed objections will
stall a sale every time
• Objections are usually requests
for more information
• Use a 5-step approach to determine
what information is missing or has changed
─ Embrace the objection
─ Clarify
─ Diagnose using the QP Formula
─ Isolate – anything else?
─ Address the objection

Could we be
blindsided?
• What are the individual schedules
of our prospects?
• Vacations
• Holiday shut-downs
• Does prospect’s organization have a
purchasing “cut off” date to prepare for
year-end or quarter close?
• Find out TODAY, not December 31, and
make adjustments to the written plan

the door?

components
• Go to work, fill the gaps!
