David Weiss: Hello everyone out there in the Sales Success Community. And this is David Weiss, and I am going to be doing a series on MEDDPICC. So look for M E D D P I C C coming out as individual tips here in the future.
So what is MEDDPICC?
MEDDPICC is not a sales process. MEDDPICC is your enterprise checklist. The thought around MEDDPICC is you ask yourself, do I have a financial business case driven by metrics? Am I aligned to an economic buyer? Do I understand a company’s decision process and decision criteria? Do I understand the paper process, a legal process that they’re going to go through? Have identified pain? If I built champions and I do I know competition? You ask yourself those questions on every deal.
You rank yourselves, red, yellow, green. Red, don’t know the information. Yellow, know some of the information, but it has not been verified by the customer. Green, I know it all. It’s been verified lockstep, done. Your job is to get all of those letters to green. When you do. I see people have an 80 to 90% close ratio. I see people have a 90 plus percent accuracy on their forecast. Personally, I’ve seen teams that deploy MEDDPICC 2X, their revenue. I’ve seen individuals 2 to 3X or more their revenue. I’ve seen people to X their close ratios.
So MEDDPICC, why do it? It’s super easy. Like literally you can look at a deal, ask yourself those eight questions, and understand your gaps. It just works. It is the foundational element of every deal. If you look at buying, selling anything, you can med pick it. I mean, seriously, it is like just the building blocks of all deals. All deals should have some sort of impact. Some deals need to be bought by someone. Somebody has a decision process in buying something, they have criteria they’re looking for. There is often some sort of paperwork involved. There is pain involved. There’s often somebody that can influence somebody else as a champion. And there’s always competition including, of course, status quo.
So if you think about that, that is the foundation of all deals. It doesn’t matter what you’re selling those apply. So it applies to everything. It will help you identify your blind spots. It will help you drive net-next steps.
So MEDDPICC for me has had such a tremendous impact. I am an evangelist. I share it with the world and I help coach people on it. I do training classes on it. I do deal with reviews for people on it. So if I can help you with it, let me know. And I hope you enjoy this upcoming series. Thanks for listening!
