Sales legend and trainer Steve Gielda—co-founder of Ignite Selling—joins Samuel to break down what truly drives performance in medical device, pharma, biotech, and diagnostics. Steve traces his path from selling 3M copiers out of a van to leading life-sciences consulting with Neil Rackham (of SPIN Selling) and building Ignite's simulation-based, gamified training that accelerates pipelines and product launches. We get tactical fast: how today's top reps think strategically, map real stakeholders (beyond the “friendly” contacts), and use smarter questions that challenge clinical and business assumptions—not just needs. Steve explains when SPIN still shines, where Challenger-style questions raise the bar, and why role-playing strategy is as critical as role-playing the call. For frontline managers, Steve lays out the playbook: coach early in the pipeline, ask more than you tell, know when to sell vs. when to coach, and—yes—let your reps fail on safe calls so they learn to win without you. We dive into work ethic vs. knowledge, turning average reps into top performers, and the signals that a high producer is (or isn't) ready for leadership. If you want practical frameworks to sharpen your questioning, focus your account strategy, and elevate your team's coaching culture, this episode delivers candid insights you can apply on your very next call.

En el competitivo mundo de los negocios, dominar el arte de cerrar ventas es la llave maestra que desbloquea el éxito. Este proceso va más allá de simples transacciones; se trata de forjar relaciones sólidas y entender las necesidades del cliente para ofrecer soluciones que resuenen. En este episodio, exploramos estrategias ganadoras diseñadas para impulsar resultados significativos junto con Edilson Ribeiro, que es especialista en ventas, negocios y desarrollo humano. Cuenta con más de 10 millones de dólares en ventas en América Latina y actualmente brinda su curso de Alta Perfomance en Ventas. “Para ser un buen vendedor primero tienes que entender para atender”, remarca nuestro invitado, y eso implica “entender cómo vive la otra persona y cómo podemos encajar nuestro producto en su rutina”. Al comprender a los clientes, las empresas también pueden personalizar sus productos o servicios, adaptando sus ofertas para satisfacer demandas específicas. La información detallada sobre los clientes facilita la segmentación de mercados, permitiendo a las compañías dirigirse de manera más efectiva a grupos específicos. “El cliente que no entiende tu valor como vendedor nunca va a pagar tu precio. Entonces primeramente es importante calificar bien al cliente para no perder tiempo con un prospecto que no está interesado en tu producto. Tengo que saber cuál es mi cliente ideal, dónde vive, si tiene hijos o pareja, cuánto es su sueldo mensual para ser más específicos en nuestra búsqueda”, enseña nuestro especialista. La habilidad para transmitir ideas de manera clara y comprensible no sólo facilita la transacción comercial, sino que también construye relaciones a largo plazo. Una comunicación efectiva implica escuchar de manera activa, comprendiendo las necesidades y preocupaciones del cliente. “Una venta no es hablar poco, pero sí es estar atento a lo que el cliente está diciendo”, aclara Edilson. Según nuestro invitado, hay 2 maneras que nos facilitarán comenzar a ser vendedores: “Primero capacitar mi técnica para crear fuertes conexiones con mis clientes y segundo leer el libro “SPIN Selling” de Neil Rackham. Tenemos que entender que una venta es una construcción, por lo que si yo no hago bien mi base, mi casa se va a tumbar. Entonces tengo que comenzar bien, creando una conexión con el cliente, hablando de cosas que son interesantes para él”. Hoy Edilson cuenta con varios clientes en Latinoamérica y en más de 15 países y afirma que llegó a conseguir esa cartera gracias a que estuvo interesado en los consumidores: “Hoy tengo amigos, no sólo clientes”, destaca. Llegar a ese punto no es fácil, pero tampoco imposible. “Existen técnicas que nos ayudan a crear conexión con el cliente. La primera es saber el nombre de la persona, es la palabra más importante que un cliente puede escuchar. Cuanto más repites su nombre en tu speech, más veces conectas. Lo segundo es ser el espejo de mi cliente, repetir sus movimientos, no de manera tan directa, y el cliente va a ver un parecido con el vendedor”, enumera nuestro especialista, y advierte: “Para repetir movimientos debes comenzar a hacerlo con tu pareja o amigos, porque sino queda muy robótico. Es una técnica muy poderosa, pero debemos ser muy efectivos”. El speech debe durar entre 10 y 15 minutos. “Para saber si está funcionando haz un movimiento distinto. Si la persona lo repitió puedes seguir la venta tranquilamente. Pero al comienzo necesitamos estar al mismo nivel que el cliente, no tenemos que presentar poder frente al consumidor”, subraya nuestro invitado, y agrega: “Hoy en día las ventas son más consultivas. Cuando sabes hacer las preguntas indicadas puedes controlar la conversación y eso te da poder sobre el cliente”. Como último consejo, Edilson nos recomienda ser persistentes, especialmente cuando sabemos que el cliente es potencial. “Cuando los vendedores hablan con un cliente nunca cuelgan una llamada sin tener una nueva reunión agendada y debes enviarle un recordatorio de ese encuentro. No tengo que ejercer presión, sino llegar a un acuerdo. Para esto tienes que tener un control de Excel para cumplir con los acuerdos”, indica nuestro especialista. Aunque no existe una frecuencia exacta para contactarse con el cliente, existe un límite para continuar la venta. Cuanto el tiempo se excede demasiado, tenemos que aclararle al cliente que no continuaremos la negociación si no hay un cierre, una decisión terminante que, en varias ocasiones, le ha dado buenos resultados a Edilson, consiguiendo finalmente la venta.

He highlights the significance of persuading others to embrace your vision and strategies as a leader, much like enabling people to invest in the desired outcomes that your product can potentially offer them. Why you have to check out today's podcast: Deep dive into how selling and leadership closely interrelate with each other Find out why sales experience is the underrated differentiator Learn how expanded solutions make way for higher margins “If you really want to think about pricing, then it's not a spreadsheet exercise. It's an exercise in thinking about how do we create value in the sales process. And that will determine how much you can charge.” - Scott K. Edinger Topics Covered: 01:24 - How Scott found himself in pricing 02:48 - A backstory of how he started in HR and landed in pricing 03:09 - A deep dive into why selling and leadership are closely related 08:06 - How to sell at a higher margin without too much discounting 10:15 - Questions to ask your team to uncover if they're bringing value to people's sales experience 12:11 - Making customers find aha moments in your offer/service 13:49 - How you make people choose you over competing options 15:16 - Building trust and what it takes to build it at this point in time 17:26 - Discussing about a faulty assumption on the idea of 'land and expand' 19:47 - Sales experience in relation to customer experience in the concept of 'land and expand' 22:08 - What drives expansion 23:51 - The 3 Cs of inspiring and communicating 25:31 - Scott's response to Mark's comment: Here's what I love about those three C's. They ought to be in chapter one 26:04 - Scott giving his best pricing advice Key Takeaways: "The sales experience is the first mile of the customer experience highway. And if it's not good, people get off at exit one and have a customer experience someplace else." - Scott K. Edinger "If you want to sell at a higher margin, sell at greater margins or sell expanded solutions, then your ability to help customers to think differently, to help them to see problems that they hadn't anticipated or solutions that they hadn't considered, that part of the sales experience has to be a priority. That can become a differentiator." - Scott K. Edinger "One of the things that I think really drives it [expansion] is if you recognize the sales execution in your business; sales becomes the execution of your strategy." - Scott K.

Le vendeur est souvent reconnu par ses techniques pour jouer sur les émotions et mettre de la pression pour conclure au plus vite sa vente. Toutefois, ce qui fonctionne pour des petites ventes n'a rien à voir avec les grosses ventes, les ventes se situant à un niveau stratégique. Il s'agit vraiment de deux mondes complètement différents. Dans cet épisode, je me penche sur l'ouvrage du Spin Selling de Neil Rackham qui révèle les résultats d'une étude scientifique portant sur 35,000 appels de vente. À travers une analyse rigoureuse, il est ressorti ce qui fonctionne et ce qui ne fonctionne pas afin d'en venir à des règles à appliquer. Le Spin Selling est un modèle applicable et très accessible. Il permet de comprendre les actions à poser pour développer un véritable partenariat avec son client. Si dans la petite vente, le produit est central, dans la grosse vente, la relation devient l'élément prioritaire. Pour ma part, ça m'a ouvert les yeux sur un tout autre univers. Afin d'accompagner cette réflexion, j'ai fait appel à Sylvain Renaud, directeur des ventes de l'est du Canada qui travaille depuis 20 ans pour la Quincaillerie Richelieu qui a un chiffre d'affaire de près de 2 milliards. Il nous fait part de sa vision de la vente et ce qui le passionne dans ce domaine.

THE Sales Japan Series by Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
If you are a student of sales, then you will know all about SPIN Selling developed by Neil Rackham, based on his 1970s and 1980s research involving 30 researchers who studied 35,000 sales calls in 12 countries. The acronym stands for S- Situation, P- Problem, I-Implication and N-Need Payoff. The concept was not to be just packaging up the details of the solution and then jamming it down the throat of the buyer- the preferred method of most salespeople at that time - but to become a trusted advisor, someone who would act as a consultant to the firm to help them improve their performance. The consultancy part required an analysis of the client's current situation and gaining clarity around what was the problem inhibiting their growth. Rackham's insight was that this wasn't enough to be successful in sales. We know that the human condition leans in favour of pain avoidance more than gain. For example, if I wrote two articles, one titled “How I Made $20 million” and another titled “How I Lost $20 million”, the latter is bound to get more attention than the former. This is where the Implication component of the formula comes in – what will be the downside, if the firm doesn't solve this problem. Drawing out the implication is key, because the easiest decision for any buyer is to do nothing. Keeping the same supplier is easy, making no changes inside the firm is easy, trying to incrementally improve what is already being done is easy. The key to success with the implication question is in how we ask it. It is also the most complex part of the formula. Asking about the client's current situation and what are their problems are relatively straightforward questions. If the implication question is done too aggressively then it will fail. For example, “Aren't you concerned about going bankrupt (or losing market share or running out of cash) if you don't fix this problem, which you told me was holding the firm back?”. Another too strong question would be, “Aren't you worried about your own job security if you cannot overcome this problem?”. Buyers will not react well to what sounds to them like a sad attempt at blackmail. They don't like the hard sell approach in Japan and this will backfire if attempted here. The implication question has to be subtle and considered. For example, “I am sure that over time, you can solve this problem you have outlined for me. I guess the question then is can the organisation afford to wait for that long or is there a greater benefit to making some changes now, to reap more immediate rewards?”. This is a good question because it doesn't say the buyer's company is stupid or that the buyer is stupid or that they are not capable to fixing their own problems. It just raises the issue of time and of course in business time is of the essence, so it is easier to conclude that taking action now is the wiser course. We are still faced with the problem though that although the buyer knows they should act, the inertia drag is so strong they still don't do anything about it and just procrastinate on taking any steps to fix the issue. When we see that this is what is going on in the mind of the buyer, we have to join them there and push them to take a more urgent approach, without tipping the scales too far toward panic. We can now say, “Change is always hard, however we know that progress requires change and there is always a big advantage to be gained over competitors who cannot make any changes. Rivals however may stir and steal a march on us and we don't want that do we? Increasing market share because of internal agility translates into better financial outcomes and quickly justify the changes needed to reap the greater rewards. When we think of it, on balance, doesn't it make sense to take the opportunity presented now, to gain the tangible benefits available?”. We have to drive in a sense of urgency around the decision to buy from us, otherwise they just never get around to making it happen. Japanese buyers in particular are very sensitive to what their competitors are doing and do worry about being outfoxed by their rivals. Certainly questioning skills are an important tool in the salesperson's toolbox, but the implication tool in particular, is one which must be fully mastered. The delivery is key and this requires practice and always remember never practice on the buyer! Clients vary in personality style, so we have to be sensitive to how we communicate with the buyer. Some prefer a more direct approach and others want to have a cup of tea and get to know each other first. Very detailed buyers enjoy data, proof, testimonials, evidence while others find all that boring and prefer the think in big picture terms. The important point is to know who we are talking to and then adjust our delivery to suit the way they prefer to communicate.
In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Jordan Spear discuss:Common pitfalls lawyers make in digital marketing. The unique challenges to marketing for your unique way of doing business. Creative content creation to stand out in the market. What to look for in a marketing agency. Key Takeaways:Marketing can help you to stabilize your inflow pipeline and allows you to bring in clients beyond just the referrals. Every law firm sees their business differently, even when they are in the same practice area. You need to know the firm to know how to market appropriately to their audience. When working with a marketing firm, they need to understand your firm - if they have a recommendation right out of the gate, they may not be the right one for you. You want to be able to trust that the marketing team behind you understands what your goal is and is bringing information to you about the market.

Stéphane Joanis started his career as a Chemical Engineer. It is with Thermo Fisher that he got involved in business and pricing, and just this January, Stephane launched his own consulting business which he calls SJ Performance, LLC. This is where he practices his expertise in B2B Instrumentation Pricing as he and his team provides coaching to help you build a strong pricing culture in a way that provides confidence and leads to trust. In this episode, Stéphane educates us on the importance of achieving organizational transformation in a company as you value the trust in the relationship you have with your customers. Why you have to check out today's podcast: The importance of having people from different functional groups to talk about and practice value-based pricing and keep each other in check How the creation of strategies that inspire trust with your customers help your sales velocity to go up The power organizational transformation has in shifting from conventional pricing practices to having a value-based mindset in pricing “The data is a means to the answer, towards getting insights. But it's a foundation. Only data can trump politics. So, I think it's important to get your data and extract value from that data. Out of the specifications, go and get what is that value to your customer.” – Stéphane Joanis Topics Covered: 01:40 – How Stephane got into pricing; the importance of trust 03:32 – On building trust: Attack the processes, not the people 05:55 – Starting his business to guide people towards organizational transformation 06:28 – What organizational transformation is all about 08:56 – The trick to see something as a loss vs. as a gain 11:13 – How to help people have a value-based mindset: Specification language vs. value language 14:00 – Talking to customers and splitting up win-loss 16:07 – Formula of sales velocity and how that relates to trust 19:31 – “I will raise your price to the extent that I'm not breaking your trust” 23:12 – Intuitive/statistical hearing as a way to talk to customers 25:01 – Stéphane's pricing advice Key Takeaways: “Everybody has a different point of view. There's so much psychology behind it. As you pointed out, there's a trust element. We have to agree to disagree. We have to have a certain level of trust, because everybody has a different objective with price. And so, how do you get everybody together, and how do you get prices aligned between them? It requires a certain level of trust if you want to do it well.” – Stéphane Joanis “That's the key to organizational transformation. It's not just about a process; it's about the people as well.” – Stéphane Joanis “You have to show what the customer is losing for them to truly appreciate what you have to offer and the value of your product and service.” – Stéphane Joanis “There's a price to trust.” – Stéphane Joanis People / Resources Mentioned: SJ Performance, LLC: https://sjperformancecoach.com/ Pricing with Confidence: 10 Ways to Stop Leaving Money on the Table: https://www.amazon.com/Pricing-Confidence-Leaving-Money-Table/dp/0470197579 SPIN Selling by Neil Rackham: https://www.amazon.com/SPIN-Selling-Neil-Rackham/dp/0070511136 Selling Value by Mark Stiving: https://www.amazon.com/Selling-Value-Deals-Higher-Prices/dp/1737655217 The Speed of Trust by Stephen Covey: https://www.speedoftrust.com/#the-book Data and/or Value (blog): https://impactpricing.com/blog/data-and-or-value/ Focus on insights and not data (blog): https://www.sjperformancecoach.com/blog/focus-on-insights-and-not-data Connect with Stéphane Joanis: Website:https://sjperformancecoach.com/ LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/st%C3%A9phane-joanis-6509921a/ Email: sjoanis@sjperformancecoach.com Connect with Mark Stiving: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/ Email: mark@impactpricing.com

This is your source for channeled holistic stress management techniques, guidance, inspiration and motivation to stay on your path to rapid financial ascension and massive impact as a conscious entrepreneur. The title of this podcast episode is Making Your Sales and Marketing Pop. So I get to have my friend John Golden from sales pub. Welcome to the podcast. John: Thank you. Thank you. I bought an introduction in the past. Well, I hope I live up to this to this billing. Victoria: I'm sure of it. So what I love about your personality, John, is that you are so positive and you have a really great CRM that also backs up our entrepreneurs being able to serve more people. So with that in mind, could you tell us like this, this could be you know, the very first time that someone is getting you here you learn about what you do in the world. And so with that in mind, if you could tell us in your own words, what it is you do, and especially what are the three things that you're known for? John: Yeah. So what I do today is I'm today I'm the Chief Marketing Strategy Officer with Pipeliner CRM and I'm also the the editor in chief or executive editor of sales pop online sales. I do the podcast that I was delighted to have sensei Victoria on and yeah and so to be honest, I'm known for, for business strategy for marketing for sales. I was fortunate earlier in my career. I ran. I was CEO of a couple of companies. One was international sales training, consultancy how Thwaites been selling the Neil Rackham book. So, that gave me a great background and grounding it also I was fortunate to work for a parent company that owned all of these businesses, but they allowed you this this this is an entrepreneur's dream in some ways, right? They allowed you to run the business as your own. But But you did but you had their backing, you know, so but but you have to deliver, right? And so that was a great grounding. And after that, then I started my own management consulting business. And one of my larger customers was Nicholas Kim, who had started Pipeliner CRM. He moved over from Austria to this state. We started collaborating it was going great and he then he asked me, come on, come partner with me. And that's kind of where I ended up today. I've worked at I've worked at startup companies. I worked in Silicon Valley during the.com. I'm originally Irish and that's where I ended up. I came to Silicon Valley in the mid 90s. I moved over there. And you know, that was a bit of a wild introduction, I have to say to to the States because that was as we know, that was a bubble. And so over the years, I think, yeah, I like to look I like to look at myself as having a lot of experience in different areas. And that I think, is the essence of if you're going to start or run your own business, you need to have at least a good foundation in each of those in, in business strategy in general, in sales and in marketing, and you don't have to be you don't have to be a super expert at all of them. But you do need some kind of grounding in those Victoria: 100% So like, what I found is that a lot of people who so we've been in the game for a while like I'm entering year 12 Right. - Let's talk about it! - Thanks for stopping by!

Why another podcast on sales? Surely out of the 500 million podcasts humanity has covered all there is on sales right? Well no.... here's the problem: Research tells us the average sales teams look like this: 57% of reps miss targets 66% have no intelligent forecasting 85% have no data on propensity to purchase The problem is massive in small to medium enterprise, sales people are often thrown into the deep end with any methodology of play books. Often sales people are either left to their own devices or worse they ignore the implemented sales playbooks thinking 'i know best' - which only results in underperformance. What is a sales playbook? A methodology + technology that is personalised to your people and business. It is a playbook that all in the business can understand, use and execute together in synchronicity. Let's get practice - the three methodologies we cover in the podcast are below. Note - we believe a methodology should be memorable and if a rep can remember it, they can do it. If they can't or don't learn it, then they clearly won't be using the methodology. Three examples that I think can be really useful for SMEs: 1/ Spin Selling A great book by Neil Rackham, go get it rom iTunes or Amazon. SPIN is an acronym for the four types of questions salespeople should ask their clients: Situation, Problem, Implication, and Need-Payoff. These questions help reps identify pain points and challenges and use their own creativity around these topics to explore and build rapport with the customer. 2/ 6 Steps to Sales (Or any agreed outcome via a meeting) Agenda: Global & Specific Position: Check In Fact Find: Identify Anchors / Problems Presentation: Solutions to Anchors, Specifics Summary: Services, Fees, Actions Open: Confirm steps, agreement & alignment 3/ MEDDIC During the sales process catalogue information against these 6 criteria Metrics: What economic metrics tell us we've achieved success? Economic buyer: Who holds the signature to sign off? Decision process: How will this purchase be made? What are the mutually agreed steps or the steps the purchase needs to follow? Decision criteria: What are the specific criteria the decision will be made against (both formal and informal)? Identify pain: What pain in the organisation is causing this purchase? Champion: Who is selling on your behalf when you are not there? How can a business leader apply this? Find out what your teams are currently doing, see what works, what doesn't. Ask different team members what the sales process is, see what aligns. Build your own! Take the best of many methodologies and apply to your own situation. Talk to us! Visit www.blirt.com.au
