3 Types of Sales Relationships • Transactional • Consultative • Strategic
Transactional Relationship • Customers know what they need • Contacts company to ask for product • Does not need Account Manager interaction • Views product or service as a commodity • Least desirable customer interface
Consultative Relationship • Create trust • Build rapport and develop ongoing communications • Fully understand the needs of the customer • Provide information & support beyond the scope of the original purchase
Strategic Relationship • Trusted confidant and subject matter expert • Customer values Pivot Point relationship and seeks our advice and guidance • Products & services are unique • We always exceed customer expectations • The Best Way to Sell is to Never Sell • This is where we MUST be positioned
Creating Strategic Partnerships… • Create a plan of action that allows us to move customers to a strategic partnership • What are the customers needs? • What sales activities must be accomplished? • What resources are needed? • Who are the key players?
Defining the Sales Process Guy Harrington VP of Domestic Sales & Field Education
Sales Process • Research the Customer • Pre-Planning • Meetings Initiated • Customer Needs Assessment • Proposal Presentation • Closing the Deal • Customer Service and Follow Up
Research • Detailed account plans for key customers • How many locations? • Number of enrollments? • Current Pivot Point contracts and sales? • What key issues should we be aware of? • Who are the key players and do we have relationships with them? • What competitors are actively engaged with the customer?
How Do You Pre-Plan? • What research do you need to complete the analysis of the customer? • What are the goals of the customer? • Who is the meeting with? What are their key initiatives and interests? • What questions do you prepare for the meeting? • What is the goal of the meeting?
Pre-Planning • The Customer • Needs • Perceptions • Relationships • Gather market intelligence • The value proposition (features, benefits, applications) • Competition

Sales Call Success • The Account Manager is well prepared • Understand the customer and know all of the issues prior to the meeting • Probe for additional intelligence • Purchasing process and requirements • Highlight Pivot Point’s success
Sales Call Success • Asking the right questions: • Cannot be answered with a yes or no. • Do not lead, control or try to manipulate • Begin with the words "when," "what," "how," "why" or "where" • Require thought to be answered • Encourage the customer to reveal information • Build rapport and trust
