Description

Selling with trust: How to win over today's sceptical buyer

In a world where buyers are more informed, more sceptical, and more risk-aware than ever, trust has become the true differentiator in sales. But what does trust really mean when viewed through the customer's lens? This session will explore how to overcome the common perception that salespeople are simply trying to sell something the customer doesn't need at a price they can't afford. We'll look at how sales professionals can build and maintain trust in an era of doubt, without overpromising or relying on outdated, predictable tactics.

Drawing on real-world experience and case studies, Carol will demonstrate how credibility, consistency, and empathy can turn hesitation into commitment. You'll gain practical techniques for making trust visible at every stage of the sales process, from initial contact through to long-term relationships.


Key takeaways

  • How to identify and overcome the three key barriers to buyer trust
  • Techniques to demonstrate credibility and consistency without sounding scripted
  • Practical ways to build long-term trust in short sales cycles or transactional sales
