A Differentiated Go-to-Market Strategy

Revive Your Revenue Performance

As an executive buyer, you understand why buyers are ignoring your solution and sticking with their current stagnant plan — status quo has proven to be a safe and easy option. The responsibility rests on you to lead a new sales approach for your organization, one that focuses on relevant solutions instead of forced products and encourages buyers to embrace the buying journey rather than abhor it.

Mereo’s solutions equip your organization to reconstitute its go-to-market operation so your clients regard your team as trusted advisors. We enable your marketing, sales and solutions teams to gain consensus on an actionable go-to-market strategy that is tailored to your company’s specific needs. Then we empower you to initiate the execution of that operating model within days, not weeks or months — days. Contact us to get started.

Your company can do better. To engage your clients in the buying journey — and free them from the status quo — you want to position your salespeople as trusted advisors. The trouble is, becoming a trusted advisor takes more than a quick training session. Sales reps need to earn the designation as a trusted advisor by prospects and clients alike. Sellers have to prove their trustworthiness in their actions, methods and values — and it starts at the organizational level.

The Mereo Solution

For your sales team to be seen as trustworthy, you must reorient your entire organization’s posture around a simple guiding principle: Seek to Serve, Not to Sell™. This Mereo principle guides every team members’ interaction with every prospect or client to create more value. With this purpose, sellers seek to understand client and prospect challenges and respond with insightful value and relevant solutions.

Serve Your Buyer

The distaste for buyers is rampant in the marketplace today and has a direct correlation to sustainable revenue growth.

  • A paltry 12.13% of corporate buyers believe sales can transform from a product/service sale to a business advisor/thought leader orientation. (Selling Power/Annuitas Group)
  • The average sales cycle has increased 22% over the past 5 years due to more decision makers being involved in the buying process. (Sirius Decisions)
  • 78% of sales teams fail to achieve consistent results, where “consistent” is defined as 5 or more consecutive quarters of “Making the Number.” (Sales Benchmark Index)

Many tactical programs address these issues. Some offer sales methodology as the answer, while others promote sales training, social selling or automated marketing campaigns as silver bullets. These tactics are fundamental building blocks but cannot stand alone. They are not the whole solution.

The Mereo Solution

Mereo delivers the core go-to-market elements others promise — but we take these efforts a step further.
