What Your Customer REALLY Cares About

Sales trainer Kendra Lee recently posted this tip, and while short, it really gets you thinking. She shares what customers care about - do you agree? What is your experience? Share in the comments!

"There are only 4 things your customers care about right now," says Kendra Lee.

1. Cost containment or reduction
2. Improved productivity
3. New or increased revenue opportunities
4. An initiative they've identified

You must be able to appeal to one of these to grab their attention and secure an appointment. Consider how your solution can do that, and use that idea in your value proposition.
