Why H2H is the Essential 'New' Sales Strategy
Do you work in a B2B or a B2C market?
This is the way that we have traditionally decided the direction of a business. Either we market and sell to businesses or to consumers.
However, I'm not convinced that this one-size-fits-all approach works any more.
Maybe it's time to move to H2H
So what's H2H? It simply stands for human to human.
We live in an increasingly personalized world. Many of you will be selling variable data printing services. Yet, when it comes to business, we still talk about market sectors. That's not very personal. It's time to change all that.
This is not about relationship selling
It's about understanding every element of a person, their business and their challenges. It's about adjusting every sales message so that it applies to an individual.
