If you do, I'd love to go play on your Sega genesis (fun old gaming system).
BANT is seller centric - "that" doesn't work - humans have something called mirror neurons and those are intention readers. Selling is so much more than - "are you the right person to pay me today?"
Stop looking for qualifying questions and just have a business conversation. I prefer to cover the following:
C = Challenges
G = Goals
P = Plans
T = Timeline
C = Consequences
I = Implications
A= Authority
B = Budget
R = Referrals
Oh and in no particular order, just conversation style, no checklist. Sometimes I'm good with 3 of these, sometimes I get them all.
Give it a shot and let me know how it goes.
