What is the GAP SELLING Methodology?
The Gap Selling Methodology is a sales technique that shifts the focus of the sale from your product to the buyer’s problem. In old-school selling methodologies, focusing on the features and benefits of your product meant the buyer had all the power when it came to understanding the prospect’s true needs. With Gap Selling, we teach you how to find the gap– the space between the buyer’s current and future states– and utilize that information to sell to the real problem the buyer is experiencing.
How is it different from other methodologies?
Gap Selling teaches you how to be Problem-Centric™. We don’t pitch about our product or service, and we don’t try to find the customer’s “pain point” to manipulate a sale. Gap Selling is a collaborative effort with the buyer to identify the true source of the problem, evaluate the cost of that problem, and work together to find a solution to fill the gap.

Sales Training - effective, or an eye roll from your team?
If it's an eye roll, chances are it's some dude delivering training via zoom in a monotone voice. Your team checks out and you check the box that you delivered training...until next time!
When did you first watch Pretty Woman? The movie debuted in 1990. By my math I was 12 or 13 when I first watched it. Good old VHS - right? (for anyone reading this that doesn't know what a VHS tape looks like - google it).
Have you ever spent time with an Ironman?
Training for an Ironman can take upwards of 12-18 months. If you don't know what an Ironman is, it is a 2.4 mile swim, a 112 mile bike ride, followed by a full 26.2 marathon.
