Lesson five case studies how a bookkeeping software company identified and targeted their best matched perspective customers.

The first and second lessons of module four dig deep into understanding what encourages prospective customer to choose you. This is taught through three case studies, a supplier of hygiene products, a railway engineering consultancy and a global marine training company.

The third lesson explores how you differentiate and enhance your products or services that are perceived to be similar or identical to those of rival suppliers. A real challenge for your salespeople, especially when your price is higher.

The next set of four lessons provide additional guidance for your planning activities.

The one lesson in this module outlines how to apply your planning outcomes to your day-to-day selling and marketing.

This tends to happen intuitively while the team carry out the planning activities. And while it is tempting to change your sales and marketing during planning, it’s best to leave that until the end.
