Episode notes
ADVICE

Structure Discovery Calls

  • Structure and manage the 22 minutes after pleasantries and agenda, but before next steps, of your 30-minute discovery calls.
  • This will significantly impact your sales success.
ADVICE

Find Business Problems

  • Focus on uncovering business problems, not just process problems, to find pain that truly impacts the organization.
  • For example, non-compliant billing leading to write-offs is a business problem, unlike inefficient billing processes.
ADVICE

Vertical Questioning

  • Use vertical questioning, delving deeper into each answer rather than asking many surface-level questions.
  • Make discovery a conversation, not an interrogation, with give and take, and avoid long monologues.
