Discovery: How to run a sales call that doesn’t feel like a sales call
58% of buyers feel like the sales meetings they participate in are a waste of time (Rain Group).
Prospects are getting interrogated with BANT-style qualification questions. Reps are showing up unprepared. And buyers are getting slapped in the face with product pitches.
Not to mention—deals are harder to close right now:
- Sales cycles have lengthened by 40% since 2020 (Vendr)
- Only 50% of AEs are hitting quota in 2023 (Salesloft)
- Quota attainment is down 5 points since 2021 (Iconiq Capital)
These experiences are far too common in a world where buyers have more control than ever.
You need a buyer-centric structure for your discovery calls. One that prioritizes the buyer’s needs, but puts you in the driver’s seat. And for god sake, one that doesn't feel manipulative or salesy.
