Insights For Selling To Sofia

DO's

  • Leverage 'negging', or the art of asking negative questions like "you must not be convinced yet..."
  • Be prepared for a mix of questions and inquisitiveness, answer them in the tone in which they have been asked
  • Help them realize that any personal risk in making this decision is far less compared to what the results could mean for them

DONT's

  • Avoid long presentations and just 'high-level' value proposition, dive into the details
  • Don’t try to rush them into a decision, provide all necessary information first
  • Don’t be too objective but make sure to pad your storytelling with data points
