I\u2019ve been fortunate enough to work my way up from being a BDR at Experian Marketing Services and an AE at LinkedIn Learning all the way to where I am now. As the head of business development at Untap Your Sales Potential<\/a>, we coach and train the top 1% of sellers at SAP, Microsoft, Gong, AWS, Google Cloud, Salesforce, HubSpot, and other blue-chip companies.<\/p>\n

Sales is an interesting landscape, because even the top sales companies don\u2019t really offer you solution-selling training. They give you product knowledge, yes \u2014 but ironically, that\u2019s probably one of the most useless things when it comes to closing deals.<\/p>\n

Think about it for a second: When you go to a luxury clothing store, they ask you questions like \u201cIs this for a special occasion?\u201d \u201cIs it an anniversary or birthday present?\u201d \u201cIs it for your mom or wife?\u201d These questions allow you to feel seen and heard and show that there isn\u2019t a one-size-fits-all strategy.<\/p>\n

If the sales rep didn’t get to know your needs, budget, appetite, and history, and just went straight to talking about how great the product is, you\u2019d feel like they were lacking the emotional intelligence to read the room better.<\/p>\n

In other words, sellers must have curiosity and ask thoughtful, intentional questions in order to understand the full picture.<\/p>\n

Remember: You can\u2019t sell a solution if you don\u2019t know the problem you\u2019re solving for.<\/strong><\/p>\n
