THE ART OF SELLING VALUE
THE ART OF SELLING VALUE
VS
What’s the different here?
Brand Product
VS
The difference is
Brands

value
Products
competes on
price
Your customers want you to add
value to your experience
To break out of the price trap, you have to work
extremely hard at differentiating your offering.
Don't learn to sell price! Spend your time
learning to create more value than your
competitors and focus on showing you can
create greater outcomes.
If you believe that lowering your price is the only
way to make a sale, you have two choices; either
learn how to sell more effectively or get out of
sales altogether
Jerome The Salesman
Value-based selling are significantly
different from traditional sales behavior
Here are some concrete differences
Product orientated selling
•Sales pitches and features
•Selling to achieve own goals
•negotiate discounts
•Selling what customers say they
need
•Is good to sell
•Motivated by getting the order
Value-based selling
• Value for the customer
• Achieve customers and own goals
• Discuss value
• Investigates implicit needs
• Is good to help the customer
• Motivated by being successful
because the customer becomes
successful
The first step in value-based selling is to
understand clearly what your customers values
Each customer has his or her own perspective
on value
Usually falling into one of the
following categories
Transactional - Customers here have low needs for a
relationship and low needs for information. They just want the
right product at the right time at the lowest price.
Relationship - Customers here want a relationship with your
company. They need salespeople who have an in-depth
understanding of their situation.
Informational - Customers here have a high need for
information and a low need for a relationship.
They know what they want, and they want to be informed and
educated.
Partnership - Customers here have a high relationship need
and a high information need. They want a salesperson who
understands their company and their needs.
What customers want in a
value-based seller!
Here are the five characteristics of salespeople customers values
#1 INTEGRITY
Majority of customers say the No. 1 thing they look for in
salespeople is integrity. People want to do business with
salespeople they trust
#2 EMPATHY
Ability to view life from the customer’s point of view. There
isn’t a problem that aggressiveness will get you into that an
equally strong measure of empathy won’t get you out of.
I CARE
#3 INITIATIVE
This is the habit of being proactive. It’s everything you
do for your customers without having to be told to do it.
#4 KNOWLEDGE
Customers want to deal with salespeople who know what their
business does and what their needs are
#5 COURAGE
This is not the absence of fear — it’s the management of fear. Value-based salespeople
control fear and instill confidence in their customers by demonstrating their knowledge and
good judgment
To deliver more value
consider this
Experience starts before
arriving at store/website
Don’t keep customers
waiting and bored!
Pay special attention to
the on-boarding process
…and remember the
different buying decisions
&
Rational
• Price
• Quality
• Feature
• Reliability
• Warranty
Emotional
• Look
• Feel
• Brand
• Safety
• Features
But there’s one
more thing
TRUST IS KEY
Customers want to deal with salespeople who know what
their business does and what their needs are
Invest the time necessary to
understand your customer
completely
Be consistent. Earning
trust is a time-
consuming process, but
it pays off
Listen more, talk less.
Talking does not build trust
but listening does
Therefore start winning customers by closing
sales based on value instead of closing sales
based on the lowest price.
You can still be a solid competitor without being
the cheapest. You just need to sell value, not
price.
In order to keep a sales pipeline full of leads, you have to
prospect. When done correctly, prospecting is the fastest
way to increase both your conversion rates and closing rates.
1. Create an ideal prospect profile
2. Identify ways to meet your ideal prospects
3. Actively work on your call lists
4. Send personalized emails
5. Ask for referrals
6. Follow up, follow up, follow up
