Methodologies

Sales methodologies

A methodology is a shared definition of what a good call looks like. Its real value is not the acronym, it is that two reps mean the same thing when they say a deal is qualified.

MEDDPICC

What each letter of MEDDPICC means, the questions that establish it, and why most teams fill in the acronym without qualifying anything.

MEDDIC

The original six-part qualification framework, what each part requires, and how it differs from MEDDPICC and MEDDPIC.

SPIN Selling

Situation, Problem, Implication and Need-payoff questions, what each is for, and why most reps run the first two and skip the ones that close.

BANT

Budget, Authority, Need and Timeline: the oldest qualification framework, where it still works, and why leading with budget costs you deals.

Gap Selling

Keenan's diagnostic method: quantify the current state, establish the future state, and sell the distance between them.

The Challenger Sale

Dixon and Adamson's model: what a commercial insight actually is, the structure of a Challenger conversation, and when the approach backfires.
