Microsoft Keynote: Transforming Sales Habits, Lessons Learnt
At Microsoft, B2B Sellers interact with hundreds of software buyers each year. Customers’ expectations are increasingly high, and it is not always easy to assess their needs, especially as the number of decision makers and buyer influencers increases.
To help our sellers best use their time and efforts, we need to enable them to embrace new ways of selling. We need to help them change the ways that served them well in the past, and adapt to new habits that, for example, leverage marketing engines to identify future opportunities.
Changing work habits requires more than asking people to attend long training sessions. It requires proper change management strategies that will generate a true desire to change.
In this session, we will review our lessons learnt in the journey of transforming the habits of our sales organization.

Nearly 60 percent of companies believe they can use a one-size-fits-all approach for every marketing and sales conversation. Instead of tailoring their approach to their buyer’s situation, they try to apply the same messages to win new customers as they do to keep and grow existing customers.

In fact, using a one-size-fits-all approach can put most of your revenue and growth opportunity at risk!
In this session, you’ll learn new, science-backed messaging strategies to skillfully differentiate your acquisition and expansion approaches.
You’ll learn how to:
• Disrupt your prospects’ status quo to win new business.
• Defend and grow your relationships with existing customers
• Use science-backed messages and skills to influence and guide your prospects' and customers' buying decisions.

For far too long, companies have had to deal with a big disconnect between their training and their actual sales strategy, culture, systems, and customers. To make real change happen, you need more adaptable content so you can build agility with a wider range of relevant capabilities. You also need more useful technology that integrates with your CRM and helps your reps get better deal by deal. And you need more visible progress with helpful metrics connected to your systems so you can see in real-time how your reps are impacting business outcomes. That’s why industry leaders all rely on Richardson. And it’s how our clients find more customers, win more opportunities, and grow their most strategic accounts.
By eliminating the use of 3rd-party tags and moving digital advertising and marketing server-side, our clients not only keep customer data more private and secure but also see a dramatic increase in website performance, which leads to improved SEO, better return on advertising, and increased revenue.
Our approach is based on research into what effective sellers and communicators do. We’ve spent decades learning which key behaviours deliver outstanding performance, identifying what separates successful people from their less effective peers. And we have a flexible learning approach to help ensure successful behavioural change appropriate to each client. These components, along with our expert team, combine to help our clients achieve their goals. It is a model we call Change Behaviour. Change Results.™
