Get the Answers You Need

Whether you have specific questions about building a more effective B2B sales operation—or just want to know which questions you should be asking—the library of questions in the SellingBrew Playbook makes it easy to find the answers and resources you need.

Here are just a few that subscribers get access to:

  • What's the difference between "explicit" and "latent" demand?
  • What can I do if I can’t really tell whether the customer is serious about needing the absolute lowest price?
  • If we have people with lots of experience in the industry, do we really need to conduct marketing research?
  • How would we modify our systems to incorporate our sales training?
  • What do I do if my internal team can’t reach agreement on a set of value-drivers and their relative importance?
  • We track close-rates by sales rep, but they always brush-off the massive variances as being "mix related". Any suggestions?
  • To be most effective, which major growth drivers should we be focusing on?
  • Is classroom training better than web-based training?
  • How do we get organizational support for tightening up our targeting criteria?
  • The prospect-targeting attributes we’ve identified are more like attitudes than attributes. Is that a problem?

This question is just one of hundreds of educational resources you get access to as a SellingBrew Playbook subscriber.
