THE THREE BIG ROCKS

they buy outcomes
Sales is not about persuasion,
it’s about Trust and
Momentum
You need to choose your
customers wisely
THE FORMULA FOR SALES SUCCESS
PV – PR = $
PV = Perceived Value
PR = Perceived Risk
Two key points:
1. PV-PR determines customer motivation and confidence to do business with you.
2. Perceived Risk is the Silent Sales Assassin!
THE THREE MAIN SALES CHALLENGES
1. Lead Generation –Can’t get enough high quality leads,
consistently
2. Sales Conversion – Having trouble converting leads into
customers
3. Customer Retention –Customer churn is too high
THE TWO UNDERLYING PROBLEMS
1. Weak ‘Customer Promise’
 Who you serve
 The outcome/results you help them get
 Your ‘Unique Approach’
2. Ineffective Customer Acquisition Process (CAP)
 No clear and simple process
 Not executing consistently
 Process missing key elements
