Is Your B2B Site a Good Salesperson?

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

It's long been said that your Web site is like a virtual salesperson, telling potential clients about your company. In this economy, you must ensure your salespeople are at the top of their game and really understand your clients' needs. Your Web site, acting as an über-salesperson, needs to do the same.

When an author writes a book, he carefully organizes that book into chapters. Chapters have a precise order aimed at telling a narrative. The story isn't told all in the first chapter; readers are introduced to the story and brought in gradually in a way that makes to them. Similarly, when pitching to a specific industry or company, a salesperson doesn't put every detail about your company in a slideshow. First, she researches the prospective client first, then either picks the appropriate canned presentation (e.g., the one concentrating on the financial vertical or retail vertical) or creates a new presentation from scratch that contains the information about your company that will be most relevant to that prospect.
