Successful Solution Selling (S3)

ONE OF THE TWO KEY CHALLENGES that our clients say that they face in the fiercely competitive market conditions today is:

How do we change from a largely PRODUCT to a more SOLUTIONS sales approach?

The S3 Successful Solution Selling Workshop was designed to address this challenge and to move your salespeople from a 'Product-focused' sales orientation to a 'Solutions-based' sales approach.


In practice the S3 Workshop can also be used to:


Introduce/reinforce your key solution offerings.
Introduce/reinforce effective cross-selling across your organization.
Launch new key strategic solutions.
Develop real team selling.

The S3 Successful Solution Selling Workshop will allow you to REALISE:


More demand creation.
Earlier engagement in the sales/purchase cycle.
Higher and broader customer contacts.
Closer business-to-business relationships with your customers.
More/better business from existing customers.
Increased win-ratios.

How will we achieve these?

The highly interactive two-day Workshop uses an intense 'learning by doing' format to change your salespeople's sales approach. By introducing a 'Solution Selling Methodology' and practicing it in a safe but highly intense environment, we can achieve a real change in their behavior in the field.

During the first morning the SOLUTION SELLING METHODOLOGY is introduced, together with a number of other supporting tools. These are presented in a highly interactive way. In the afternoon the methodology is practiced in small teams, followed by preparation and planning for the Simulation the following day. The second day centers on the Simulation, where the teams enact their real roles as 'your account manager' selling 'your solutions' to one of 'your typical customers'.

THE ONE-DAY SIMULATION uses our 'Sales Camp' Methodology, where every fifteen minutes is one day, with the teams competing against each other for the customer opportunity(s). During the Simulation the teams have a number of customer meetings followed by a final presentation to an 'Executive Steering Team'. A number of other exercises also have to be completed, reflecting life in the real world.

The Simulation makes extensive use of CCTV, supporting the learning process both during and after the Workshop. During customer meetings the rest of each team can observe their colleague(s) and the tapes can also be used for subsequent review and coaching.

During the Simulation a number of your managers will be required to enact a variety of customer 'character' roles. This gives them valuable insight into the participants who are enacting their own roles - this is a very 'real-life' environment.

Each Simulation is developed specifically for you, to ensure that it represents a 'typical' customer for your organization, and that the opportunities that can be developed represent those to which you have key solutions.
