Los Angeles Chapter

ROI

April 7, 2005

Are you providing your potential customers with an irresistible catalyst to change to your software?

There are three irresistible catalysts to change. People change:
1. When they hurt enough that they have to,
2. When they learn enough that they want to, and
3. When they receive enough that they are able to.

Learn to provide a ROI analysis that provides them with enough information that they want to change and demonstrates enough ROI that they are able to implement change despite resistance to change.

Learn "The ROI on ROI" and the advantages of using ROI Selling techniques in the sales process! Michael walks you through the process used by thousands of sales people who have adopted ROI into their current sales methodology. He will teach you about changing that paradigm of sales person/prospect to trusted advisor/partner. The shift is essential to be successful in today's selling environment!

This unique presentation will start with a 45 minute overview of the ROI development process and finish with a 60 minute session providing the audience with an opportunity to ask the speaker and software company executives questions about determining a software's ROI. Learn from the ROI experts and from users who have to challenge the ROI studies provided to them. One software company executive has already said she had over an hours worth of questions. Don't miss out on this great session.
