Part of winning any deal is knowing and having an understanding of the person/people you’re dealing with on the other side of the table. The more clearly you understand how they approach conversations, how they negotiate, what makes them feel seen, heard, and valued…the more you are able to cater your pitch to be received in a favorable way.
When making your selections on the next page, think about what you’ve observed and what you’re heard from each person on the buyer team that you’ve had contact with up to this point.
This is not an exact science, so don’t spend too much time on second-guessing your answers. This just serves as a baseline for us to start forming buyer team personas as we move forward and prepare our strategy for a successful pitch and winning the deal.
