Why a Cheshire cat?

...because for many people, their approach to selling is like Alice's approach to the crossroads...

"Cheshire-Puss, would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"

"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," said the Cat. "I don't much care where---" said Alice. "Then it doesn't matter which way you go," said the Cat.

Good selling is synonymous with good planning.  If you are going to sell to win, you need to know where you are going.  There follows a "selling route map", it's not the only model but it does serve to set out a direction:

Target

Qualify

Approach

Understand

Propose Solution

Close

Handle objections

Close

Deliver

 Proposal Masters uses a process called QUEST to manage the sales cycle because it forces you into knowing where you are going and how you are going to get there!
