Description

Since 2010 we've known buyers would rather do research online and with colleagues than speak with a seller. Fast forward to 2023 and 72% of buyers prefer a rep free experience. Cold calling is the number 1 reason a buyer will not buy from a seller. Cold emailing is the fifth most cited reason and annoying ads the seventh most popular reason a buyer won’t buy from a company. Vendor websites and blogs are no longer believed by buyers who would rather make up their own mind by having a free trial or ask their trusted network their thoughts about solution providers to their biggest problems. The data doesn’t lie. Buyers do not want to speak with sellers, making our job, the job of prospecting and sales more difficult than ever.

There is a global skill shortage across our industry which is sales and marketing folk do not know how to walk digital corridors safely and effectively. Social selling is selling on social and social marketing is marketing on social. It's not possible to analog sell on social. A different skill is required, one that is less about selling and more about developing your personal brand, creating compelling content that shows you're an authentic human being and also an expert at what you do - encourage your audience to walk towards YOU!
