More About the SalesCred App

Most salespeople aspire to achieve the level of “trusted advisor” with their prospects and accounts. Sales credibility is the pathway to earning trust. In fact, it’s a prerequisite.

Being perceived as a credible source of knowledge that can solve problems is what gains access to top decision-​makers, sensitive business information and the leverage needed to close sales.

Every word and action taken by salespeople, at all stages of the sales process, should boost your credibility, enabling you to earn the buyer’s trust. The major problem is that most salespeople unknowingly limit their success by pushing their prospects away with the words they speak and the actions they take every day.

The old-​fashioned idea of sales is exactly backwards. When selling in the digital age, you don’t qualify the buyer – the buyer qualifies you.

Bottom line — you need to boost your sales credibility to win the accounts that can transform their business.

The SalesCred app helps sales professionals earn trust with buyers by improving your credibility, mindset, sales skills, and pre-​call research. The app is a self-​discovery tool providing customer data, conversation starters, customized strategies based on your psychographic profile, and more.

The SalesCred app for iOS and Android devices helps salespeople :
  • Discover how buyers see you before they'll see you
  • Lead conversations with Relevant Value™ and smarter questions
  • Improve your sales mindset daily
  • Be prepared for every meeting with timely and relevant pre-​sales research
  • Build credibility with each prospect using the Hierarchy of Sales Credibility
  • Stand apart from every other salesperson vying for the same business
App users can even build their credentials through the SalesCred Certification with digital badging that can be displayed on LinkedIn and social media.
  • New sales professionals looking to build best practices and overcome a lack of experience in the job
  • The top 15% of seasoned sales professionals who always want to sharpen their skills
  • Entrepreneurs who want new ways to present themselves and their company
  • Self-​employed professionals who work and sell simultaneously and seek referrals
  • Consultants whose work is directly tied to “trusted advisor” status

All users can read daily Conversation Starters, watch the CredTalk interviews and topline results from SalesFuel’s latest, exclusive research on sales credibility.

Many parts of SalesCred will become available once your free, science-​based psychometric assessment is completed. This involves completing three short questionnaires that will take approximately 20 minutes. When done, you will gain deep insights into your work and behavioral tendencies, your motivations, and your sales and leadership traits.

Additional functionality can be unlocked through in-​app purchases.

Overall, the SalesCred app offers the following features:

  • Free daily insights and executive summaries of human-​curated sales articles
  • Top-​line research on buyer behavior by vertical category
  • Mindset improvement tips
  • Social intelligence
  • Pre-​sales intelligence
  • Sales skill and soft skill development
  • Certification/​credential-​building badging program
  • Self-​awareness of your motivators, tendencies and work tendencies
  • Tips based on the LinkedIn profiles, social media and posted content by the companies you represent

You can even get prospect-​specific Meeting Prep reports so you can be prepared to deliver on every sales call. There are also options for monitoring — automatic updates to the report for 3 or 12 months for prospects with longer sales cycles. 12 month monitoring is also ideal for keeping your eye on your competitors.

The SalesCred Certification course allows you to fully understand and apply sales credibility to your everyday sales efforts. You also earn digital badges for your LinkedIn profile that impress your current and future employer.

These options, plus more to come, support the app financially. So if you like the app, give them a try!
