Opportunity Assessment and Forecast Accuracy Guide

Executive Abstract Often, opportunity assessment (or management deal review) is an overly complicated process, consisting of layers-upon-layers of forms. One of the major drawbacks to this approach is the fact that sales professionals only complete the forms when they have to, they obtain little to no return on this effort, and they don’t  consistently  use  the  information  to  inspect  and  gain  insight  into their opportunities. The ValueSelling Associates approach is to analyze opportunities and insure that pipeline accuracy is in direct correlation to the process the customer follows to make buying decisions. Our customer will execute and evaluate opportunities through a buying process—with or without us. Thus,  we  need  to  assess  our  opportunities  from  the  customer’s  perspective  of  what  is important to proceed to invest in our solution and release funds. The Qualified Prospect Formula® identifies and tests four key components to determine if the opportunity is truly qualified – a VisionMatch that is differentiated, Value, Power, and Plan.

Overview The Opportunity Review process analyzes four key components of an opportunity to determine the likelihood that the customer will invest in your solution. If one component is determined to be  lacking  or  undeveloped  (a  “zero”),  the  prospect  is  considered  unqualified  until  that  component can be validated. The Qualified Prospect Formula® shown below illustrates the qualification process.

QP = VisionMatchD x Value x Power x Plan®

Definitions □ VisionMatchD: In the prospects words > How our solutions resolve problems linked to a true

Business Issue. We must have unique problems that we solve. This answers the question, “Should  the  customer  buy?”

� Business Issue: What the customer needs to address and resolve to achieve their

business objectives of growing profits – these are issues like decreasing costs, increasing revenue, time to market, etc.

� Problem: The difficulties that prevent the prospect from satisfactorily resolving their business issues. Usually involves people, process, and/or technology.

� Solution: The capabilities that any vendor needs to supply to enable the prospect to properly address their business issues.

□ Value: The customer’s  perception of the impact of being able to resolve their business issues.

This is always a combination of tangible and intangible components. Business Value and Personal Value.  This  answers  the  question,  “Will  they  buy?”

□ Power: The  individual(s)  within  the  prospect’s  organization  that  has the ability to say yes and no.

This answers the  question,  “Can the customer buy?” □ Plan: The steps necessary to mitigate risk in the mind of the buyer to proceed in the resolution of

their business issue, to be confirmed in writing. This answers the question,  “When will they buy?”
