Prospect Qualification for Breakroom Suppliers

Prospect Qualification for Breakroom Suppliers

One of the most important topics you can cover with your sales reps: the effect that a successful qualification call can have on the sales process. The impact is inimitable. Proper qualification saves the sales team time, so that labor that can be properly allocated to pursuable opportunities. This process prevents pipelines from getting filled with an abundance of unqualified, or more so underqualified, prospects that drain your sales rep’s time and energy. Imagine dialing in multiple times over to the same prospect that is estimated to have 120 employees, only to reach them and find out they actually have 22 on-site! Or making 6 calls over 3 months to Suzie, who turns out to be a “coordinator” – hardly a decision-maker.

Although certain criteria requirements vary from Operator to Operator, the importance of an effective qualification call remains constant.

It would be easy if there was one right set of questions to ask that would always guarantee responses that we want. The best approach is to create a mix of open-ended questions that get your prospect talking, along with questions that easily yield a “yes” response or get the prospect thinking of what their current broker is NOT doing for them.

Appointment Setting – Today’s Leading Sales Strategy

We all know and love movies like ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’ and ‘The Boiler Room.’ They give us an inside peek of what the sales world is like: fast-paced, addictive, and deceptive.

As much as there is to love about these movies, they have tarnished the reputation of the sales industry and created mass confusion about what appointment setting is.  Luckily, we have research and industry statistics to explain what appointment setting is, what the benefits are, and why it’s best to outsource the practice.
