The Art of Business Development™ (produced by Smalley & Co.)
Although many companies see business development (the art of winning profitable new business relationships) as an integral part of their growth strategy, most sales people are not properly trained in the special skills required to be successful.
Consider the following:
Many sales people do not have a clear, concise, and compelling value proposition. Research shows that in order to engage interest in a prospect your value proposition should be delivered within 10 seconds in a cold call, 20 seconds in a personal meeting (networking), or 2 minutes in a formal presentation.
- 80% of all new business is signed after the 5th meeting with a prospect yet 90% of all sales people quit after the 4thmeeting.
- 8% of sales people produce 60% of all new business.
- Most sales people spend less than 30% of their time actually engaged with clients or prospects.
- 67% of all sales people do not ask for an order, or a commitment from their prospect to move forward after a new business presentation.
- 70% of all leads generated by traditional sales and marketing activities are never followed up.
We teach and coach a disciplined process and specific tactics for overcoming these statistics and deploying an effective business development process in your organization.
