Folgenbeschreibung

Mit 250 PreSales-Kollegen weltweit und über 17 Produktmodulen steht Qlik vor der Herausforderung, Komplexität skalierbar zu machen. Matthias Anders (Director PreSales Center of Excellence) teilt, wie interne Strukturen, spezialisierte Teams und ein wachsendes Enablement-Konzept dazu beitragen, Orientierung zu schaffen, sogar über Länder- und Funktionsgrenzen hinweg.

Besonders spannend: Wie GenAI bereits heute im Teamalltag eingesetzt wird, um Buyer Personas besser zu verstehen und Gespräche gezielter vorzubereiten. Eine Folge für alle, die PreSales als lernende Organisation denken.

🇬🇧 Partner Management to accelerate B2B sales growth (047)

They are the hidden gem of any sales organization.

Do they get all the attention they deserve? Probably not. Are companies levering them to the maximum? Probably not.Have YOU worked with them? Probably YES!

This episode is dedicated to the extension of our organization: Our partners. Partners can be an important contributor to:

  • Sales growth
  • Project delivery
  • Technical evangelism
  • Creating new markets
  • Customer satisfaction

As we want to learn from the best, we are very pleased to have Mark Schuster join us. Mark has gathered decades of experience in the realm of managing alliances effectively at all the heavy hitters of the tech space: Microsoft, VMWare, Dell, Salesforce and now UiPath.

In detail we discuss the following:

  • Partners or Projects. Chicken or Egg. What comes first?
  • How do we achieve a WIN-WIN scenario?
  • What types of partners are there?
  • Which ones do you need - and for what purpose?

Thank you, Mark for joining and sharing your valuable insights with us and our listeners.

🇬🇧 Value Engineering: How to close more deals! (046)

Most agree: Leading with value in sales engagements is key to success.

The problem: It’s not something that comes naturally to everyone.

Starting out in sales, often we take a path riddled with obstacles. Initially, we feel insecure about pretty much everything: Talking to clients, following the right process, understanding our portfolio.

A typical trap we can fall into, is falling in love with our own tech and start bragging about it’s capabilities. It starts feeling safe, as we learn more and more about our own solution. But it’s counter productive! Mature sales organizations have realized this. To lead with value, they have implemented programs. It’s purpose: Close more and bigger deals faster.

Sounds too good to be true? Well, tune into our conversation with Ricarda Rieser, seasoned Value Advisor @ SAP. She shares her experiences and knowledge on how Value Engineering will bring more sales success to you, and even more importantly increased value to your stakeholders!

🇬🇧 Sales & PreSales: How to become a ROCKSTAR in both (045)

And what we can learn from each other.

You know people working in Sales? Okay, so do we.
You know people working in PreSales? Okay, so do we.
You know people who switched between both? Well yeah, so do we.

Do you know people doing Sales and PreSales at the same time? Neither did we!

Part of our mission of the Sales Excellence Podcast is to break down barriers, especially between sales and presales. Let’s step away from “us vs them” towards a common “we”. So tune in and join our conversation with Max Lüpertz.

Max is Chief PreSales Enabler & Founder at PreSales Rockstars. He took us on his journey of moving into a hybrid setup, owning both roles. He shares with us, how each role can benefit and learn from each other. In detail we discuss the following:
Why (the heck!?) switch from PreSales to Sales?
Why are PreSales skills also useful for Account Executives?
Why should PreSales worry more about sales processes?
PLUS Max’s most favorite topic: Why is Buyer Enablement key?
Level Up and Let’s Rock. Thanks a lot Max for being our guest and sharing your experiences and insights.
