This book identifies and addresses the primary cause of declining B2B sales: corporate culture. It explores the factors leading to the COVID-19 crisis and highlights the post-crisis opportunity for sellers and companies to accelerate growth and capture market share. The text offers insights and guidance to enhance sales effectiveness and market presence. Currently, many organizations are overly inward-focused, and the rise of the gig economy has depersonalized the workforce. This shift, alongside a move toward inorganic growth strategies, has hindered customer-centricity, increasing risk and anxiety for buyers. Consequently, B2B sales have become a one-way street, negatively impacting customer experience and placing undue blame on sellers. Readers will learn how to become client-centric, increase B2B sales, implement effective sales tools, and diagnose and improve their company's sales culture. The book draws on extensive research, personal anecdotes, and biblical references to illuminate the cultural issues at play, providing an unconventional guide to solving these challenges. Chapter summaries and reference guides allow for quick access to key topics, making it a practical resource for those seeking to enhance their sales approach.

Märkte sind heißer umkämpft denn je. Deshalb kommt es heute auf mehr an, als nur den Kunden von einem Produkt zu überzeugen. An zahlreichen Fallbeispielen zeigt Jim Holden Taktiken und Methoden, die auch in schwierigen Situationen zu erfolgreichen Abschlüssen führen. Er schildert, wie gewiefte Verkäufer an den Bürokraten vorbei zu den Entscheidern in den Unternehmen vordringen und zu diesen wirklich wichtigen Leuten gezielt Beziehungen aufbauen und festigen. Dort im Zentrum der Macht des Kunden setzt das Power Base Selling an, mit Strategien, die Schwächen der Konkurrenz aktiv nutzen oder sogar ihre Stärken ins Gegenteil verkehren. Wesentlicher Bestandteil dieses hocheffizienten Verkaufstrainings ist ein Instrumentarium zur systematischen Beobachtung der anderen Anbieter. Mit geschärftem Blick registriert damit der Außendienst bereits erste Anzeichen kommender Schachzüge, um dann bereits im Vorfeld darauf zu reagieren. Dadurch ist der Power-Base-Verkäufer seinen Konkurrenten stets eine Nasenlänge voraus.
