DiscoverOrg:

This would be a good place to highlight the depth of the offering, allowing users to confidently engage a larger segmentTriggersAbility to look for similar scenarios to the ones they just sold

What’s in Your Pipeline? www.SellBetter.ca (855) 25-SALES

@TiborShanto @discoverorg#sellbetterdorg

http://bit.ly/TheObjectiveSeller

1. A specific result that a person/company sets to achieve within a time frame and with available resources. Objectives are more specific and easier to measure than goals. Objectives are basic tools that underlie all planning and strategic activities. They serve as the basis for creating policy and evaluating performance. Some examples of business objectives include minimizing expenses, expanding internationally, or making a profit.

2. Neutral (bias free), relating to, or based on verifiable evidence or facts instead of on attitude, belief, or opinion. Opposite of subjective.

Objectives

• Objectives are the most POWERFUL and POSITIVE FORCE you can harness in delivering VALUE TO YOUR BUYERS AND TO YOUR COMPANY

• Objectives are Much more powerful than Pain, Needs or Solutions

• Every business – business owner – business person, has objectives

• Not all of those same people have or perceive a pain or a need, or recognize they have a problem in search of a solution

• Pain – short lived, people learn to cope; objectives – uplifting, people can’t get enough.
