3.

The RSP program will include: • A Structured Approach • Clear Expectations and Objectives • A Support Process, and • Recognition for Activity The desired results of the RSP include: • A Continuous pipeline • Revenue stability • Increased market penetration, and • A much larger sales engine where everyone becomes a lead generator

4. Relationship Selling Transformation Instead of always delivering a strong sales pitch, we’ll start a conversation. Instead of groping for projects, we’ll understand the prospect’s needs. Instead of pushing to close the sale, we’ll focus on discovering whether we are a good fit for the client. Instead of chasing an RFP, we’ll get invited to the table. Instead of challenging or defending an objection, we’ll uncover the truth behind them. Instead of walking away from a lost sale, we’ll continue building the relationship. Instead of fearing rejection, we’ll avoid rejection.

5. Building a Long Term Relationship Honesty and Candor • Communicate clearly what our services can and cannot provide, even if it doesn’t match your contact’s needs. Peer-Level Perception • Present yourself as a colleague or peer who is willing to work together in evaluating whether a business relationship will be mutually beneficial. Patience to Allow a Relationship to Develop • Sometimes you can hit it off immediately with someone; other times it can take months for the relationship to develop. It’s ok to take your time. We’ll make it up in volume. Respect • Although you may not be friends, respect what your contact’s values and intent are, and the contact will respect your approach to business and your professionalism. Trust • Hold the perspective that you will sell to the “right” relationship. Trusting that true needs will be served, if the relationship is a good fit it will keep you relaxed and enjoying the process and the sale will come naturally.
