IMPACT Marketing: MBC™
Managing the Buy Cycle Workshop
Does your sales team keep getting bogged down at the same point in the sales
cycle?
Do you know how your marketing messages and tools are being used during the
sales cycle?
Is your product always selected over competition but you struggle to get the
PO signed?
IMPACT Marketing: MBC is an advanced training session that shows your marketing
team how to propel the technology buyer through the sales cycle with high impact
messaging, tools, and collateral.
Does your sales team use messages and tools during the sales cycle without
regard to buyer needs?
Propel the buyer through the sales cycle with IMPACT Marketing: MBC. Find your
best sales leverage by applying this proven methodology that focuses on marketing
strategies and tactics tailored around the buying cycle. Designed to help marketing
teams understand the buying cycle from the buyer's perspective, IMPACT Marketing: MBC
matches information and messages to the most urgent needs and propels the buyer
through the sales cycle.
Do your distributors give away all their collateral on the first sales call,
then have nothing left to address the advancing needs of the buyer during the
sales cycle?
Align informational needs with the buying cycle. When materials, messages, and
programs are designed to address a buyer's informational needs, your sales effectiveness
will soar. Marketing delivers messages and value propositions that meet the
buyer's changing needs as the sales cycle progresses. This approach enables
sales to focus on selling and developing the relationship with the buyer versus
creating defensible positioning on the fly. It focuses on helping sales move
a prospect through the steps of the sales cycle quickly and effectively, and
complements a complex sales methodology.
Are you reps crafting off-the-cuff, one-off messages when faced with competition?
Develop crisp, consistent messages that differentiate your products and
services. IMPACT Marketing: MBC helps marketing develop multi-tiered message strategies
that center on identifying pains of buyers and businesses, and create a sense
or urgency around those pains through messages and positioning tactics. Once
pains are identified, sales can build a sense of urgency and help prospects
understand the impact of not addressing the pain, which helps drive purpose
and closure.
