SalesTech Quote-of-the-Week!
Sales is going through a massive transformation, with buyers being much more educated about the needs they have, and the requirements they need to address. To drive business value, one needs to understand the initiatives that are important to the customer. Unpacking and truly understanding the business issues a prospect faces, allows them to serve their needs. Customers don’t necessarily buy what you do, they buy why you do it. Translated, that means we need them where they are, spend energy really driving into deep discovery, to unlock the joint potential of our capabilities that can match their vision. –John Giacomini, Senior Vice President of Sales at North America, Netskope
