Challenging for Sales and Client
Success
For decades B2B organisations in
solution selling have focused their
sales approach on understanding
client needs and building strong
relationships. But research in
recent years has clearly
established that this is no longer
enough, and that the very best
salespeople go beyond traditional
consultative and solution selling
to ‘challenge’ their clients in
multiple ways. This session
introduces the ‘Challenger Sale’.

OBJECTIVES
• Understand the research
[by CEB] on the
behavioural characteristics
of top performing
salespeople and why they
are key in a modern B2B
solution selling
environment
• Understand how we can
adopt these behaviours to
supercharge our own sales
performance
• Appreciate how these
align with and address
modern buyer influences
and preferences

CONTENT AND LEARNING
• The five B2B salesperson profiles
• Which one are you?
• The star performer – ‘challenge’ for optimal sales performance
• Teaching for differentiation – bringing perspective and insight, insight-led
conversations
• Tailoring for resonance – at client and individual level. Generating widespread
organisational support
• Taking control of the sale – overcoming risk aversion and inertia, managing
pricing conversations, the difference between assertiveness and aggression
• The role of the individual seller vs the selling organisation
• The surprising truth about what drives client loyalty
