I'm transitioning into a role where I am expected to take more of a consultative approach to selling. In my previous position, the sales cycle was shorter (4-6 weeks), I primarily dealt with 1-3 stakeholders, and the process was more defined. In my new role, the deal sizes are bigger, the sales cycles are longer, more stakeholders are involved and there is no defined process.
I'm sure other have experienced this as they move more up market. I'm finding that I need to relearn/learn a whole new skill set and almost starting from scratch in a way.
Any materials, insights, feedback, podcasts, etc that can help with this transition?
