I'll record what I've learnt on the subject of what I sell. What it actually is means little to anyone other than me, but what it does and how it helps, means everything to those who require it.
In "The Extremely Successful Salesman's Club," Chris Murray emphasizes the importance of understanding the practical value of a product rather than just its technical details. He argues that customers are more interested in how a product can benefit them and solve their problems, rather than the specifics of what the product is. This focus on functionality rather than mere description is crucial for effective selling.
Murray encourages salespeople to document their knowledge about their products in a way that highlights these benefits. By tailoring their approach to address the needs of potential customers, salespeople can connect more meaningfully. Ultimately, understanding what a product does and its impact on customers is key to successful sales strategies.
