Are your salespeople stuck in a ‘feature land’? Understand Value Based Selling!

As a Demand Generation and Sales leader, I am constantly focused on giving my team the best tools and strategies to be successful. One method that has consistently delivered amazing results is Value-Based Selling.

But what exactly is it, and how can it benefit your team and customers?

Value-Based Selling moves away from listing product features alone to recognizing where your customers face unique challenges and are headed for their set goals. It means you earn trust and become a trusted advisor who helps them attain what they want.

This is why Value-Based Selling changes everything:

Stronger Relationships: By putting customer needs first, you create authentic connections beyond the buying process.

Increased Sales: Customers are more likely to buy when they realise that your product solves their specific problems.

Improved Customer Satisfaction: With Value Based Selling, solutions actually meet customer needs which leads to greater satisfaction hence repeat business potential.

The improved customer satisfaction through the value-based selling method ensures that solutions actually address customer needs by leading to higher satisfaction levels and possibly repeat business.

Imagine you are marketing project management software. Rather than focusing on advanced characteristics, you would rather concentrate on your prospect’s hurdles.

How about collaboration among teams?

What if beating deadlines is a problem?

When you’re relating features of your software to tangible benefits they really want to hear about, such as how it enhances communication and ensures projects get completed on time.However, Value Based Selling is not always a magic wand; instead it is a powerful technique that can change the way a sales person sells. It therefore means that when one focuses on customers’ requirements while creating trust, a win-win situation will be created for both customers and salespersons.
