9:50am Navigating Sales Team Alpine Retreat 10:00am FIRESIDE CHAT – Think Customer First!

Steve Riddell Head of Customer Experience Casper Former Chief Sales Officer, Sprint

AGENDA

SESSION ABSTRACT: We all know that customer engagement/experience matters and yet much of our thinking about engagement remains elementary at best. We tend to look at it through a very “narrow lens” as someone is either engaged or they’re not. But this is a limited view that hampers our ability to manage engagement in meaningful ways. This session will look at a brief history of “customer experience” and then focus on what the enterprise can do to engage customers in a meaningful way.

KEY TAKE-AWAYS:• A blueprint for how to “define” the customer experience in such a way that the contact center company can actually deliver it• Insight on “10 best practices” that were employed at Casper, Blinds.com, Sprint and other companies that were used to achieve 20% year over year growth while at the same time achieving a high level of customer engagement/experience• An understanding of why seeing customer engagement through the lens of the customer could make you the “Casper” of your industry

SESSION ABSTRACT: This keynote presentation will provide insight into the forces driving digital transformation, and the paradoxes that sales organizations are faced with in meeting changing customer expectations. Learn how Microsoft is leveraging AI to engage customers contextually, harnessing the power of networks to drive innovation, and partnering with customers throughout their digital transformation journey.

KEY TAKE-AWAYS:• An understanding that digitization is more than just a change of tools or technological devices, and that it presents organizations with the opportunity to evolve digital selling to meet customer expectations at scale while still making interactions personal• Key learnings from Microsoft Inside Sales on how it transformed its customer engagement and sales platforms to reach customers with the right touch at the right time with the right insights• Insight on how to create a culture that unlocks productivity and embraces agility, innovation, and continual evolution

SESSION ABSTRACT: One of the biggest challenges facing sales reps and sales leaders is the failure to effectively connect, share and listen to our customers. Attention span has decreased from thirty to eight seconds. Salespeople must create interest span to combat lower attention span. The tendency for young people to flee from meaningful conversation results in loss of rapport and connection. This makes objection handling more difficult than ever before. The solution? Rehu-manize the Sales Process.

KEY TAKE-AWAYS:• Insight on how anything that can be told can be asked• An example of The CALL Method: CONNECT, ASK, LISTEN AND LINK method to sales• Best practices on how leveraging first, second and third level questions will get to the heart of why people buy your product or service• An understanding of how to listen to the emotion behind the words• Examples of how to unpack three methods for linking what’s important to the customer to your offering to build urgency

Choose one of the following zones:

Zone 1. Adapting to Changing Consumer Buying Patterns

MODERATOR: Marek Wasilewski Vice President Sales Symantec

SESSION ABSTRACT: The job of sales leader has never been more challenging. Aggressive growth targets in a commoditized marketplace…prospects more informed and demanding than ever before…buying decisions being made on price while your team struggles to differentiate…and you know your sales team is still too product-focused. If you’re feeling the pressure, you’re not alone. To deal with them, you’ll need to make substantial shifts in the execution of your strategies – one customer conversation at a time.

In this interactive session you will learn how a leading financial services organization is addressing these challenges and turning their sales strategies into business results.

KEY TAKE-AWAYS:• Examples of the key reasons why your sales conversations may be unconsciously increasing your sales cycle time and cost of sale.• An understanding of how your sales reps are selling the one thing your clients don’t want – and what to do about it• Insight on why selling the “value” of your offerings leads your customers to price-shop• A “Pipeline Reality Checklist” - a practical how-to for measuring the true value of your pipeline that you can use immediately

SESSION ABSTRACT: Whilst the number of available products is exponentially increasing, consumers are seeking experience over functionality. It appears that with the new generation Emotion trumps Logic. The purpose of this interactive session is to brainstorm and share how organizations have to adapt and change their approach to facilitate the needs of the consumer.

KEY TAKE-AWAYS:• Insight on what the most logical point of departure is and will culture have to eat strategy for breakfast in this new world• Best practices for utilization of complimentary tools like Analytics and AI to increase efficiency and to better serve the customer• Pragmatic ways to structure brands to offer hyper- personalized products and services

But, how do you get salespeople to create video that is on brand and advances their sales conversations? How do you implement training and processes to support video in your sales process? How do you know if your salespeople are generating positive results through video? How do you drive adoption?

This interactive session combines lessons learned in the trenches with proven best practices in process and training in effective use of video in modern selling.

KEY TAKE-AWAYS:• Proven insights that your buyer wants to engage with video• Insight on how to develop the mindset shift needed before a salesperson presses the record button• Framework for use cases that will deliver ROI through video in your sales process

Featured Demonstration Hosted by:

SESSION ABSTRACT: Data and advanced analytics are trans-forming every industry. While most of us would likely expect the formulation of strategy to continue to be the domain of experts in the C-Suite and their strategy offices, there are new ways of leverag-ing AI, machine learning, natural language processing and associated techniques to make better strategy decisions. This session will focus on how Intel is evolving its processes for sensing market trends and interpreting data in new ways to act with conviction on market trends to capture growth opportunities.

KEY TAKE-AWAYS:• An understanding of why market sensing and strategy formulation is and will continue to be part art, part science. But new capabilities that are available to strategy leaders make it essential to transform your strategy function into a data-enabled strategy office in order to compete effectively • Insight into methods and processes that Intel is deploying to detect market trends, predict M&A activity and act with conviction on these findings

SESSION ABSTRACT: Winning in a VUCA (Volatile, Uncer-tain, Complex, and Ambiguous) world, requires break neck speed of innovation and responsiveness to changing market dynamics and/or customer needs. If you can’t collaborate with cross functional teams at a world class level, you can’t compete as a world class organization.

In this interactive session, we’ll use a common, everyday scenario as a backdrop to work together and synthesize a world class model for internal cross functional collaboration that delivers winning solutions to customers quickly and efficiently.

KEY TAKE-AWAYS:• A blueprint for the stages from collecting/generating ideas to go live of a new solution/service/product• Best practices for clearly defining the challenges inherent in each stage• An interactive platform to share and/or develop solutions to overcome those challenges• A working model that can be shared with our teams to improve the effectiveness of our cross functional collaboration
