How Do You Create Urgency?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Last year, 42% of sellers identified their top challenge as ‘creating urgency.’<\/p>\n

In essence, urgency isn’t something you fabricate; it’s something you uncover or identify. You might be familiar with the term “compelling event,” but what exactly does it entail?<\/p>\n

A compelling event hinges on three key elements:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Economic ownership<\/li>\n
  2. A specific deadline<\/li>\n
  3. A response to a specific business pressure<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Compelling events fall into three categories:<\/p>\n

    Customer-driven:<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Company growth objectives<\/li>\n
    2. Revenue goals<\/li>\n
    3. Profitability goals<\/li>\n
    4. Investment goals<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Market-driven:<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. New legislation \/ compliance<\/li>\n
      2. Competitive threats \u2013 existing players<\/li>\n
      3. Competitive threats \u2013 new disruptors<\/li>\n
      4. Changes in consumer behaviors \/ buyer demands<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Vendor-initiated:<\/strong><\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Price reductions<\/li>\n
        2. Favorable payment conditions<\/li>\n
        3. Inventory giveaways<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Out of these, two resonate deeply with prospects and spur genuine urgency, while one fails to make an impact. Can you guess which one?<\/p>\n

          Spoiler Alert:<\/strong>\u00a0It’s the vendor-driven compelling event.<\/p>\n

          I’d recommend looking at your pipeline and working out which ones have a real compelling event. If they don’t, the opportunity is still in discovery.<\/p>\n
