Most people resist selling but enjoy buying

Ontem voltei ao tema da diferença entre Vendedor vs consultor de compra.

Entretanto, ao final do dia numa releitura do "Crossing the Chasm" de Geoffrey Moore encontro a seguinte passagem:
.
"Companies focus on making products easier to sell because that is what they are worried about – selling. They load their marketing communications with every possible selling argument, following the age-old axiom that if you throw a lot of mud at a wall, some of it is bound to stick.
.
Prospective customers shrink from this barrage, which in turn causes the salespeople to chase after them that much harder. Even though the words appear to address the customers’ values and needs, the communication is really focused on the seller’s attempt to manipulate them, a fact that is transparently obvious to the potential customer. It’s a complete turn-off – all because the company was trying to make its product easy to sell instead of easy to buy.
.
Think about it. Most people resist selling but enjoy buying. By focusing on making a product easy to buy, you are focusing on what the customers really want. In turn, they will sense this and reward you with their purchases. Thus, easy to buy becomes easy to sell. The goal of positioning, therefore, is to create a space inside the target customer’s head called “best buy for this type of situation” and to attain sole, undisputed occupancy of that space. Only then, when the green light is on, and there is no remaining competing alternative, is a product easy to buy.”

É uma mina por desenvolver esta mudança de perspectiva, ajudar a comprar em vez de despejar a tentativa de venda pela garganta abaixo... lembro-me da podologia.
