The Customer Has Changed, Have You?

How to sell the the 21st Century Buyer

A Book Based On Customer Aligned Selling™ Curriculum

According to a 2015 Salesforce.com survey, 82% of sellers are out of sync with their customers. Twentieth century sales tactics no longer work.

The 21st century buyer is now empowered and engages the seller much later in the buying process. The playing field of sales has forever changed. The Customer demands more. How much value added is the #1 decision criteria.

Today’s buyers have changed in 5 ways:

  1. They are more skeptical – less likely to trust you and thus extra effort is required to build and maintain trust.
  2. They have more information and sophistication and thus are empowered to make decisions without sales reps.
  3. They are not tolerant of traditional sales methods trying to sell them something. Today’s buyer/customer wants value that will help them make a decision and achieve an outcome.
  4. Competitors are more determined to win the deal and customer’s leverage that desire.
  5. Having a good quality product with a fair price is just the ticket to get in the door to have a conversation. Innovative solutions and quality products are no longer the main deciding factor in why customers buy. It is the sales rep and the value delivered.
