Lee and Magnacca partnered with Tony Jeary, leading results strategist, executive coach and subject matter expert who has advised over 1,000 clients and published more than 60 books, to provide relevant strategies and advice for sales professionals.
“‘Mastering Virtual Selling’ pulls up the curtain and shows you what is going on backstage—the true methods it takes to achieve success,” said Harry Hoopis, CEO of Hoopis Performance Network. “Mark, Yuchun, and Tony have nailed the millionaire mindset and then created the book that will help revolutionize companies to achieve that goal. This book has impressed upon me the values it will take to optimize my time within our virtual meetings.”
With more than 90% of B2B sales now conducted virtually, rookie and veteran salespeople must master the nuances of virtual selling. “Mastering Virtual Selling: Orchestrating Sales Success” educates sales professionals of all levels how to become buyer-centric and more effective at managing all aspects of virtual selling before, during, and after a prospect meeting.
The book demonstrates the tools and tactics sales professionals need to achieve an intended outcome, including:
- The power of creating a compelling buying experience
- Tactics and strategy on “frontstage” and “backstage” selling
- Enabling virtual selling teams
- Creating the hybrid selling environment of the future
“With more than 13.7 million people in sales and sales-related professions in the U.S., teams are looking for resources that will help them hone the skills they need to master virtual selling,” said Co-author Yuchun Lee, Allego CEO and co-founder. “The events of the last year have set the stage for what B2B sales will look like now and in the future. ‘Mastering Virtual Selling: Orchestrating Sales Success’ provides new techniques to be more proficient at virtual selling and, in turn, create more confident, productive and successful sellers.”
“So much of communication relies on body language and cues that are more difficult to read in a virtual environment. Sales professionals need to master new skills to engage with prospects in a virtual setting to compete at a higher level than their competitors,” said co-author Mark Magnacca, Allego President and Co-founder. “We can’t operate like we did in the past. Sales professionals must learn how to create a personalized, efficient buyer experience that will ‘wow’ prospects and win business.”
