SalesTech QnA with the Expert
Today, a sales rep’s world is different. Prospects are now far more educated before they ever have their first conversation with a rep. Most prospects can see at least a short online demo, get some idea about pricing, read all about others’ experiences with a product on sites like G2, and do a few backchannel references by matching customer logos on a vendor’s website with connections on LinkedIn. The value a salesperson provides isn’t in controlling the flow of data in return for information. It’s more as a trusted resource that can paint the picture for how a product can be an integral part of that prospect’s vision of the future. If you ask me, it’s a much more interesting, challenging, and fulfilling role. –Allen Pogorzelski, Vice President, Marketing at Openprise
