It gives them a better view of your expertise and how you're thinking for them and with them. It makes the comparison easier between you and your competitors: it goes from "Why should i choose you?" to...
"It's too expensive. Nobody will buy this thing. The price would be too high." — Will . salesperson The price? $ 100 K. Here's the fun part, though: Without context it sure feels like a lot of money. It's 100 K, right? However, the customer is currently using an alternative for $ 200 K.PER YEAR. This 100 K? What it would be for the customer to pay. For 5 years. To them (the customer), it's comparing 1 million to spend in 5 years vs 100 K in 5 years. For them, it's 90% in cost savings. For the...
