#161 - Common Mistakes in Sales This week on the Catalyst Sale Podcast, Jody and Mike discuss three common mistakes in Sales.  We tend to focus on the solution instead of the customer problem We forget that the customer is the hero in their story We try to have one solution fit all challenges Key Takeaways: We forget that it’s all about the customer We continue to miss on empathizing with the customer We don’t take the time to design our interactions with the customer based on an understanding of how they go through the process You don’t come in and save the day, you help out on their big adventure Be a catalyst that helps them with their success Make the buyer look like the hero If you try to solve for each of them using the same lens, you are going to create some risk that is not necessary for the organization Use the right tool for the right problem inside your organization and realize that there are different perspectives that are necessary in order to look at each of these problems Show Links Dan T
