NEED DISCOVERY IS ABOUT
ASKING IN-DEPT QUESTIONS AND LISTENING INTENTLY: In
fact, the sophistication of and extensive nature of the
questions asked distinguishes and is a major characteristic of superior "consultative
salespeople." "Transactional salespeople" ask relatively shallow
questions since the product/service they are selling are basic and commodity-like.
They primarily ask about "facts" and sometimes may ask about the customer's
"feelings." Consultative sellers ask these and more. Remember, the
more that you know about your customer's needs, the better able you are able
to match an appropriate product/service to these needs and customer "problems."
You will have "competitive advantage" simply because you have better
and more information.
