Mastering the Art of Teaching in Sales

ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS:

• Provide Hypotheses, Not Generic Questions: Instead of broad questions, offer informed hypotheses to invite deeper discussion.
• Ask Questions to Guide Next Steps: Use questions to guide the process without being pushy, keeping the prospect engaged.
• Teach Process Over Just Problems: Beyond identifying issues, recommend processes (like a custom demo over a POC) to build trust.
• Uncover Intent Behind Extra Steps: When extra steps are requested, ask what they aim to learn to suggest simpler options.
