In sales, it’s crucial to balance the interests of the customer, the company, and yourself. This is what I call the “Holy Sales Trinity.” Here’s how you can master this technique to create win-win-win situations in every deal:
Customer First, But Not at All Costs: While it’s essential to satisfy the customer, don’t cut your margins too deep. Remember, a deal where the company and you don’t benefit isn’t sustainable.
Company’s Needs Matter: Ensuring the company benefits from the deal keeps the business thriving. But, neglecting the customer’s needs can lead to long-term losses.
Mutual Benefit: Strive to make sure all three parties benefit. Sometimes, the balance won’t be equal, but each must gain value.
Trusted Advisor Role: If your solution isn’t the right fit, direct the customer to someone who can help. This builds trust and encourages future business.
Provocative Statement: In sales, a deal that doesn’t benefit all three parties is a bad deal. Balance is key.
How do you ensure that every deal you make benefits the customer, the company, and yourself? Share your strategies!
