Is Your Sales Team Challenged with Vendor Consolidation in Your Market?

Give your sellers the skills needed to build value and stay relevant in the face of vendor compression

Industry disruptors can take many forms, but a large number of our clients have come to us with the challenge of vendor consolidation. As purchasing departments look to streamline operations and improve efficiency, your organization may be at risk of losing out on steady business.

According to procurement experts, the trend toward vendor consolidation can actually be a tremendous opportunity for smaller providers to make a name for themselves and grow, as long as they’re capable of developing strong relationships, delivering as promised, and staying nimble to meet customer needs.

Having a team of sellers capable of consulting with buyers and establishing long-term relationships can become your sales organization’s competitive advantage.

Sales teams challenged with vendor consolidation in their marketplace must:

Build and Prove Value

Your sellers must use a value-based sales process to uncover exactly what a buyer values most, and present the benefits that align with their priorities.

Master Relationship Management

Successful salespeople are skilled at adapting their communication to match a buyer’s preferences, and staying relevant with key account management strategies.

Stay Nimble and Proactive

Buyers will choose to stay with a vendor who is easy to work with and adapts to their business requirements. Consultative sales training equips your sellers with a responsive and flexible style.
