1 Set the Scene

Begin your presentation by setting the scene, much like the opening of a story. Describe the current landscape of the industry and the challenges your clients face. This context helps your audience visualize their own situation within the larger narrative. It's important to speak directly to their pain points, which will make them more invested in the solution you're about to present. Establishing this scene provides a backdrop for the journey you're taking them on, and it primes them for the solutions that your engineering product or service can provide.

1. Know your audience - have a good understanding of the customer to whom you are presenting. 2. Keep it Simple, always highlight the challenges or potential challenges then say how you can help. 3. Visuals, NO DEATH MY POWERPOINT. 4. Try to Demo where possible and pick 1 or 2 challenges and demo the solution. 5. Close with Problem-Solution, Cost Benefit Analysis where possible. 6. Always schedule a follow up meeting, this will give time for customer/listener to take your pitch back and think about it. A follow up will help Sales Engineers get that 1:1 relationship going.

Creo que es muy importante preparar la sesión justamente para abrir muy fuerte y enganchar a tus interlocutores desde el inicio. Si no te preparas conociendo lo que hace tu prospecto y cuáles son los principales dolores de cabeza que tiene su sector entonces la escena que vas a preparar será muy diferente a lo que esperan.

Beginnen Sie Ihre Pr?sentation, indem Sie den Rahmen setzen, ?hnlich wie am Anfang einer Geschichte. Schildern Sie die aktuelle Marktsituation und die Herausforderungen, vor denen Ihre Kunden stehen. Dieser Kontext hilft Ihrem Publikum, ihre eigene Lage im gr??eren Zusammenhang zu erkennen. Es ist wichtig, direkt auf ihre Schmerzpunkte einzugehen, damit sie sich st?rker für die L?sung interessieren, die Sie vorstellen werden. Durch diese Einführung schaffen Sie einen Hintergrund für die Reise, auf die Sie Ihr Publikum mitnehmen, und bereiten sie auf die L?sungen vor, die Ihr technisches Produkt oder Ihre Dienstleistung bieten kann.

2 Introduce Heroes

Every story needs a hero, and in your sales engineering presentation, the hero could be your product or the client themselves. Introduce the hero by highlighting how they will overcome the challenges you've outlined. Personalize this part of the narrative by suggesting how the client's own team or company will benefit from becoming heroes in their industry through your solution. This approach not only humanizes your product but also empowers your clients, making them feel central to the story.

Hier treten die Helden in Erscheinung. Jede Geschichte braucht einen Helden, und in Ihrer Pr?sentation als Vertriebsingenieur k?nnte dieser Held Ihr Produkt oder der Kunde selbst sein. Stellen Sie den Helden vor, indem Sie betonen, wie er die zuvor beschriebenen Herausforderungen bew?ltigen wird. Personalisieren Sie diesen Teil der Erz?hlung, indem Sie aufzeigen, wie das Team oder Unternehmen des Kunden von Ihrer L?sung profitieren und dadurch zu Helden in ihrer Branche werden kann. Dieser Ansatz macht nicht nur Ihr Produkt greifbarer, sondern st?rkt auch Ihre Kunden, indem sie sich als zentrale Figuren der Geschichte wahrnehmen.

3 Plot Twists

Inject a sense of excitement into your presentation with unexpected plot twists. Perhaps there's a common misconception about the technology that you can debunk or an innovative feature that sets your solution apart. These twists keep the audience engaged and help to maintain their interest throughout the presentation. By presenting information in a way that surprises your clients, you ensure that they remain on the edge of their seats, eager to see what comes next.

4 Emotional Connection

Creating an emotional connection is a powerful storytelling technique. Share testimonials or case studies that evoke emotions and show real-world applications of your solutions. When clients can emotionally relate to the success stories of others, they are more likely to envision similar success for themselves. This connection is crucial as it transforms abstract concepts into tangible benefits, making the technical aspects of your presentation more accessible and impactful.

Dar ejemplos "reales" de como has ayudado a otras empresas similares es muy importante para que se sientan identificados y entiendan que tu servicio o producto es la solución que estaban esperando. En el momento en que tus interlocutores escuchan los problemas que otras empresas similares han tenido y como los ayudaste a reducir tiempos, costos y riesgos, será cuando te darán toda su atención y se abrirán para contarte a detalle lo que les sucede a ellos.

5 Climactic Solutions

As you approach the end of your presentation, lead up to the climactic reveal of your solution. Build anticipation by recapping the challenges and showing how your product or service uniquely addresses them. This is where you want to showcase the most compelling benefits and features, making sure they align with the client's needs and desires. The climax should feel like a natural and satisfying resolution to the story you've been telling, leaving your audience with a clear understanding of how your solution is the answer they've been looking for.

6 Future Vision

End your presentation by painting a picture of the future with your solution in place. Illustrate how the client's world will change for the better, reinforcing the positive outcomes and long-term benefits. This future vision should inspire and motivate your clients to take action. It's also an opportune moment to invite questions and open a dialogue about next steps, ensuring that the story you've told doesn't end with the presentation but continues as a collaborative journey towards success.

Schlie?en Sie Ihre Pr?sentation ab, indem Sie eine Vision der Zukunft mit Ihrer L?sung zeichnen. Veranschaulichen Sie, wie sich die Welt des Kunden verbessern wird, um die positiven Ergebnisse und langfristigen Vorteile hervorzuheben. Diese Zukunftsvision soll Ihre Kunden inspirieren und motivieren, aktiv zu werden. Es ist auch ein idealer Moment, um Fragen einzuladen und einen Dialog über die n?chsten Schritte zu er?ffnen. So stellen Sie sicher, dass die erz?hlte Geschichte nicht mit der Pr?sentation endet, sondern als gemeinsame Reise zum Erfolg weitergeht.

Se real, no inventes historias ni mientas cuando compartas como tu producto o servicio contribuyó a lograr los objetivos de tus clientes.
