Why Intelligence is Important to Selling and Marketing to the Manufacturing Vertical Market
The manufacturing vertical market is focused on finding and retaining talent, developing a more reliable and diverse supplier base, increasing factory automation, and shoring up data security. Manufacturers are also keeping an eye on rising inflation that could shrink the technology budget.
In order to capture a deal, sales teams have to clearly articulate how your solution drives business results in automation, security, and inventory management while addressing the needs of buyers from the plant floor to the board room. Successful sales teams will rely on intelligence about the people, organizational dynamics, and attitudes toward technology at the account to send the right message.
Emissary Advisors have been technology buyers at the manufacturers you’re targeting. They know the human element of the sales process that you’ll never find through traditional research. Advisors will work with you to identify decision makers and help customize messaging for plant managers, engineers, and executives. Advisors are the people who helped shape the buying process at your accounts, and they’re the best people to coach you through it to success.
