Offer Enablement
How do you establish your proposition?
Creating a compelling proposition is still one of the most challenging aspects of operational success. More often than not, companies rely on reactive evolution to shape their proposition, while significant and relentless changes to a company’s markets increase the effort and cost in maintaining clear thought leadership and sales traction.
Creating clear differentiation from the core components of an offer is not easy – you may hear prospects say ‘you all sound the same’ and sales people may get fatigued with non-productive engagements that arise from poorly qualified leads and an ambivalent audience.
The cost of ineffective direction leads to poorly motivated staff, a lack of industry sponsorship and a decline in company performance. This makes it difficult to attract new talent and creates tension between your teams that wastes time and costs money. By contrast, getting it right leads to accelerated market share, improved sales productivity, visible sponsorship from industry luminaries and higher company value. Relying on reactive evolution is at best a game of chance – sometimes proactive intervention and a fresh unbiased perspective is the key to unlocking a proposition!
The RVWL Offer Enablement Program
The RVWL Offer Enablement Program (OEP) specifically addresses this challenge. It is designed to facilitate the capture of the best information you can access and distil it into an effective and concise proposition. Using a proven capture process and template documents that aid collaboration, we’ll help you to extract what matters from sales people, marketers, product owners, R&D staff – and your customers. We’ll help you to arbitrate the contributions from your teams and assemble a fresh, compelling and quantifiable proposition that your sales people can convert into sales success.

Of course, processes and tools are only a part of it – expertise, experience and judgment play an equal part in getting to the answers.
