How can you handle indecisive technical customers?

I always strive to gather as much information as possible about the product. However, a common challenge arises when dealing with IT professionals who may be introverted and provide limited details. To overcome this, it's essential to ask the right questions, such as: Does the product save time, reduce costs, and boost sales? How easy is the product to implement, and what is the process? What are the unique selling points of the product? How does it compare to competitors? These questions, combined with technical knowledge, are crucial for gaining a comprehensive understanding of the product.

Siempre he pensado que es casi imposible vender algo sin conocerlo, tenemos que conocer su potencial, usos, comparaciones, sustitutos, etc Por ello que lo primero que se aplica antes de vender, es estudiar el producto o servicio que ofrecerás, además de ello adaptarse a la industria servirá para poder estar al tanto de lo que se usa, modismos, para comprender y llevar mejor la venta.

Uncover their needs: Ask open ended questions to understand their problem and desired outcome. Build trust: Demonstrate expertise and actively listen to their concerns. Focus solutions: Highlight features that directly address their needs. Simplify options: Present a clear recommendation, with a backup option if needed. Address concerns: Transparently answer questions and offer reassurances.

Indecisiveness often results in a negative outcome, so it's important to have a thorough understanding of and confidence in your product. Customers don't just buy a product, they buy the seller's pitch or the seller's word.

Listen actively and understand customer needs: ... Highlight the key benefits: ... Provide social proof: ... Offer guarantees and flexible policies: ... Create a sense of urgency:

Understand what they need. Does your product solve the problem? If yes, help them understand how it can help them. If it does not, the sale is not right and it is better to be honest with them!

Understanding the needs and problems of customers is a classic approach, but diving deeper into their fears can be even more impactful. Addressing and alleviating customer fears with your solution is key, as fear often drives sales more effectively than mere needs. Fear does not have to be conscious.It can also be subliminal. Additionally, it's crucial to identify what customers aim to achieve with the solutions you offer. Acting as a bridge between their current position and future goals strengthens your value proposition.

He participado de reuniones donde el ejecutivo lanza su producto, sin antes escuchar al cliente, este es un error muy frecuente ya que escuchar activamente podremos resolver el "dolor" específico, encontrar las objeciones, aversiones y dudas, para poder ofrecerles nuestra solución, por otro lado debemos tener identificadas esas necesidades para poder también destacar los atributos de nuestro producto.

While understanding the customer's need is essential, delving deeper into how your solution can profoundly impact their life and transform their need into a vital change is crucial. By articulating how your product or service addresses their pain points and enhances their quality of life, you can demonstrate its value and relevance. This shift from mere need to indispensable solution strengthens your sales pitch and resonates more deeply with customers.

Earning trust is easy when you prioritize fairness and prioritize customer needs over personal gain during product design. Maintain professionalism by respecting appointments, demonstrating empathy towards customers as individuals rather than sources of income, and assisting them through challenges with patience and support. With these practices, establishing trust becomes a natural outcome of genuine care and consideration for your customers' well-being.

Make sure you've identified all roles: users, buyers, coaches, etc. Often with technical sales you need to expand and escalate the field of coaches to rise above indecisive technical evaluators. Often there is a strategic imperative of the company or division that gets buried under political noise during technical evaluation. Often that's because technicians have a hidden agenda or want to develop the project internally. Your job is to determine whether this is the case, and if so, to rise above the objections organizationally so you can get traction quicker.

The fourth step is to address their objections and concerns. You need to anticipate the common objections they may have, such as price, quality, features, or timing, and prepare effective responses. You also need to listen to their feedback, acknowledge their perspective, and provide evidence and reassurance to overcome their doubts. You want to show them that you understand their objections, that you respect their opinions, and that you can help them overcome their challenges.

Most objections break down at some point. The important thing is finding what is really important to the customer and if you can solve that problem. If you can solve their problem then everything breaks down to Price and Timing.

‘FOMO’ is not just a word it’s more than that. Know how and when to use it is very important. If you use it at the wrong time or way you’ll not only loose a sale but you’ll also loose trust and customers. And if you’ll be able to learn how to use it no one can beat you in selling.

This depends on the whole sales cycle and what company you work for. Create compelling events. "You said this 'month was the best time for your team to learn a new software.'. Let's get you onboarded so we do not miss out on this window of time" Or create events from your side of the deal. "Hey, we are raising our series B at the end of this quarter. If you sign up this quarter I can give you a 10% discount."

I 100% agree with Joe Morone. Create a business case. In the cybersecurity world, the business case is the amount of risk, do you have the skill set in house, protecting your brand, and protecting PII.

Know your customers and their needs as much as you understand your product. Studying customers and what they really want is the most important thing.
