Yesterday we focused on how to construct a client needs analysis questionnaire.  Today’s lesson is focused on how to conduct a needs analysis effectively.

The core take-aways for this lesson are:

  1. Never sell during the needs analysis.
  2. Don’t finish the prospect’s sentences, allow them to explore solutions and challenges in their own context.
  3. Get permission to sell at the end of the needs analysis to maintain rapport and trust.
  4. Always get a commitment for the next step in the sales process.
