The Discovery Selling Series

Purpose

When customers have stopped beating a path to the front doors, and winning by being the lowest priced high volume competitor is no longer a sustainable strategy; success requires representatives who discover what is important to each customer, configure value-based offerings, and act to create strategic differentiation.

The Discovery Selling Series (DSS) provides a simple but powerful conceptual structure and skills for exploring and identifying unique value “gaps.”  By understanding and exploring what keeps customers from making changes and seeking help, sales professionals learn to go beyond competing for the order to become valued consultants that help solve problems or seize opportunities.

While there is power in thinking and acting differently, by helping sales professionals choose to feel differently about engaging each customer, the Discovery Selling Series transforms sales careers.
