    Kate DiLeo | Convert More with Marketing

    How do you effectively bring prospects into your sales funnel and convert them? Many marketers lean into complex storytelling, but that can be overwhelming to prospects who you're just starting to get to know.  To better align your sales and marketing strategies, try thinking of your initial marketing as an invitation. You wouldn't want to overwhelm your guests with every little event detail. You would tell them a select few that they need to know and then let them decide whether to come or not.  Your brand's initial marketing outreach should be the same way: direct, concise and to the point, with more details to follow for those who are interested. This way of doing things helps you give potential buyers the exact amount of information they need to become your clients. On this episode of The Evolved Sales Leader, Kate DiLeo, founder of the SaaS marketing tool Brand Trifecta, dives into the three key pieces of information that you need to communicate to clients before they'll convert. Listen in as we discuss: Why business is a conversation not a transactionWhat it takes to build an effective pipelineHow sales and marketing should not be siloed but a collaborationThe role and differences between pitching and storytelling Catch every single episode of The Evolved Sales Leader by following us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, our website, or your favorite podcast player.

    Steve Gielda | Why You Lose Sales

    In a recent sales enablement study, 74% of salespeople claimed they lost a deal due to a lower-cost competitor, but only 22% of buyers said price played into their decision. That’s a big difference! But where is this difference in perspective coming from? To understand how a buyer goes about making a decision, you, as a salesperson or leader, have to throw out your assumptions, step into your buyer’s shoes, and ask yourself or the lead the following questions:  What are the trends in their industry?  What are the pain points in their business model?  What goals do these executives have?  With these questions answered, you can better create a winning sales strategy that converts prospects into clients.  On this episode of The Evolved Sales Leader, Steve Gielda, co-founder of the sale enablement company Ignite Selling, shares how buyers think, revealing the true reasons for lost sales and the ways to turn those losses into wins. Listen in as we discuss: Determining the level of influence of key decision makersThe decision criteria that matters most to companiesHow to validate your assumptions for more accurate client understandingAccelerating your sales pipeline through research, training, and critical thinkingCatch every single episode of The Evolved Sales Leader by following us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, our website, or your favorite podcast player.
