We get them to the dinner table by booking demo's to show them a more granular look at our solution. Demo's are very hard to get, and I've averaged one per week. Which is better than any salesman they've previously employed. Once I get my clientele my role will shift into more of an account management role. If any of you know of any Managed Solution Providers, that's our target - we don't sell to the end-user. There are a few we will sell to - but it's usually a large university or medical facility.
I've sold IT Solutions for 7 years now.. We should really chat over the phone. I think the landscape is changing. Gone are the days of simple labor arbitrage. The new era is a few select partners that can get away with charging a bit more because they are a true partner, and they provide value above and beyond bodies or a simple service.
