Joining Andy for the roundtable discussion today are Richard Harris, Founder of the Harris Consulting Group, Mark Cox, Founder of In the Funnel Sales Coaching and host of The Selling Well Podcast, and Matt Dixon, Wall Street Journal best selling co author of The Challenger Sale, The Effortless Experience, The Challenger Customer, and his new book, The Jolt Effect. They begin by discussing some of the best ways to offer value to clients, the role of technology in enhancing sales, the challenge of being constantly pitched by vendors and the lack of interest in product details, and they propose a "common sense revolution in sales," where the focus is on improving clients' businesses. They challenge both traditional sales training methods, and current compensation structures, and argue that ROI is more crucial than simply offering a cheaper price. The group turns its focus to the essential skill of asking open-ended questions, which can separate the best sellers from the rest, the significance of listening and truly understanding the client's pain points in their specific context, how to earn the right to ask questions, and being one step ahead and adaptable to shifting buyer behavior.Connect with Richard, Matt, and Mark.  Connect with Mark Cox <ul> <li><a href="https://www.inthefunnel.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.inthefunnel.com/</a></li> <li><a href="https://ca.linkedin.com/in/markandrewcox" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://ca.linkedin.com/in/markandrewcox</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/inthefunnel" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.facebook.com/inthefunnel</a></li> <li>markcox@inthefunnel.com</li> </ul> SPECIAL OFFER for our Listeners!

He is a trusted strategic advisor to the CEOs of some of the largest companies in the world, including Procter &amp; Gamble, Lego, and Ford. In 2017, Roger was named the world's #1 management thinker by Thinkers50, a biannual ranking of the most influential global business thinkers. Roger has authored 13 books, including When More Is Not Better, Creating Great Choices, Getting Beyond Better, Playing to Win, and his newest book, A New Way To Think. We discuss the idea of his latest book, which identifies some classic models associated with different topics in business and thinks about a more effective model for that particular topic.
