The way we buy products and services has changed. The way we consume technology has changed. But the way we sell IT hasn’t changed all that much.
Our sales models date back to the 1890s when John H. Patterson (NCR) introduced the first sales playbook which Thomas J. Watson (IBM) later evolved into a sales process.
And here we are. Over 100 years later using outdated sales models that are no longer fit for purpose. But in a world that is forever redefining value and requiring us to reinvent ourselves in a profession that is not always appreciated.
Whilst at the same time constantly fighting to meet our quarterly targets. Battling to grow our pipelines. Agonising over the ongoing decline in margins.
No wonder the stress creeps in. Damaging our physical and mental fitness. Undercutting our self-worth. Lowering our self-esteem.
Our solution is to stop selling.
