There is an undeniable trend across the purchasing departments of corporate America towards selecting the suppliers that can offer required goods and services at the cheapest price. However there is often a cost of buying cheap. Rather than simply react to this trend by offering ever increasing discounts, it is the role of the sales professional to discover and quantify the true cost of buying cheap to their customers. |

Since what seems like the dawn of time, organizations have been
trying to adopt more of a solution or consultative style of selling. In fact
for many sales organizations this is the most commonly stated desire.
However, in spite of many attempts, few organizations have achieved this
elusive goal. This article defines the term "solution selling" and then provides the key ingredients to successfully adopt this selling style. It also examines the barriers and situations where the solution selling style may not actually be appropriate. |
