The winners and losers

It’s not the best products that succeed; it’s the best marketed ones.

Technology vendors with technically strong products are losing deals to competitors with weaker technology but clearer messaging.

The difference is not the product. It is the story you tell about your product.

How winners win

The vendors winning enterprise deals do three things differently:

They build a narrative their buyers can use to justify their decision.

They give their sales team collateral that works in a real enterprise conversation.

And they build credibility and trust before the buying process begins.

Introducing Paul

I'm Paul Brucciani.

I spent 20 years in enterprise cyber security sales before moving into product marketing. That combination is uncommon.

I bridge the gap between your smart marketing people and the customers they seldom meet. I find the message that communicates the value of a technically complex offer.

I’ve launched services, built sales pipelines, won major bids and led analyst relations.

I can help you engage with the market, build trust and improve revenue growth.

Is this you?

  • You are a cyber security vendor with a high-quality solution, but the sales team is not generating the results you expect.

  • Your competitors are winning deals you should be winning.

  • Your sales team is writing its own collateral because Marketing has not given them anything useful.

  • Your pipeline is stalling because buyers cannot justify their decision to their peers.

The product is not the problem.

My approach

  • Create trust by being insightful. Buyers buy from those they trust

  • Connect emotionally with the buyer. Complex buying decisions are emotional. Reason is used to justify them

  • Build client outcomes into your messaging. That’s what they most care about

  • Use narratives to engage. Facts tell; stories sell

  • Provide reasons to act now. Your biggest competitor is the ‘status quo’

  • Help your community. Think long-term

  • Plan to retain customers. Long-term value comes from keeping services sold.
