In a recent Gartner study of almost 1500 significant technology purchases, only 27% were considered high quality deals that were good for the customer and the vendor.

This complimentary webinar explores findings from this recent Gartner research study on enterprise technology buying. We look at the data through approach-driven lenses that offer unique perspectives for how you should think about and interact with your customers and guide them toward successful outcomes.

The High-Performing Sales Approach EDT: 11:00 a.m. | PDT: 8:00 a.m. | BST: 16:00
Today?s customers have access to more quality information and less need to look to sellers for data and insights across the purchasing process. In fact, the amount of high-quality information available to customers far exceeds their capacity to consume it, and they develop coping strategies that often only reaffirm their existing beliefs and ignore information that is critical to an effective purchase decision. Sales leaders must recognize the opportunity presented by a crowded informational landscape and evolve the role of the salesperson to better reflect this new reality. This complimentary webinar helps sales professionals become what their customers need most: A guide who can help them navigate an increasingly noisy informational landscape to find the answers they need to make better decisions.
