Here’s the transcript from this episode of RevShow by Dubb.

So the most important thing I can say today about the current sales landscape is
an evolution towards asynchronous prerecorded
content being the absolute decider in the buyer’s decision.
So what I mean by that is, in the old days, with the old antiquated
traditional cold call calls following up, chasing people down,
all that nonsense, that’s pretty much going the way of the dodo.
We are so excited to talk to you today about the benefit method
and the benefits of but before we get to that,
the ultimate problem that most people in sales are suffering from
is not making a connection. What I mean by that is not
stirring up interest, not getting replies, and then ultimately not
driving the sales that they want to. So an important question that you should
ask yourself is, are you building trust? Are you
creating relationships with the people that are in your prospect list?
Because if you’re not, chances are you’re not going to achieve your sales goals.
The problem here is what we like to call the hunt. And the problem with
the hunt is that it’s completely rooted in following up, but not
in the positive way. Here’s a short film that we made called the follow up
that I think shows this idea in a really funny way,
starring this guy.
Oh, hey, Ali, how are you? Listen, I called you about 20 times earlier
and I haven’t heard back from you. Did you see our products that we do?
They’re really amazing. Are you just in buying? Oh, hey,
so I’d recommend the latte back there is really good. By the way, did you
get the 47 voicemails I just left you? I’m just really super excited to sell
you this stuff.
Oh, hey, Ally. How are you doing? What are the chances that you’re in here?
Listen, did you get one of my 47 voicemails I sent you? I haven’t heard
back from you yet. Hey, can we stop and get ice cream? Ice cream?
Do you like ice cream?
That’s wrong. And I can’t close the sale.
I cannot close the sale. I don’t know what’s going on. It just sucks.
Have you downloaded check
it out in the app store? Dub.
D-U-B-B. That’s right, dub.
And the key to remember here is when you’re looking at a product
or service, sometimes you get caught in the glow of the lights of
the features and what it does, and all of that is important,
but the features and the services are just the beginning point
of illuminating what the benefits are to you as the
buyer. That’s what you’ve got to convey as a salesperson, not what
the AC switch does in the car. It’s what the eventual
feeling of the AC does for the person in the vehicle and what that
creates. That’s what it’s all about. So within the benefit method, it’s all about
the benefit to the end userbuyer
in the car. It’s not about the AC. Knob that you’re turning in that feature.
It’s about what does that feature do to the person buying that vehicle?
It keeps me cool on a warm summer day, right? And the heat keeps you
warm on a cold winter day, if that’s where you’re located.
But that’s what it’s about, remembering the big picture of what the benefits are to
that buyer. So the benefit method is all about conveying
the ultimate value to the person that’s buying. It’s about telling
them how can they make money? It’s about how can they save money,
it’s how can they increase their productivity and ultimately gain
more happiness? Because at the end of the day, that is what we’re all trying
to buy. So gone are the days when we follow up, just to follow
up. Now it’s about providing additional value. And that is
the benefit method. So here’s a really interesting story that we can tell about this.
A lot of people come to us because they simply did not use their CRM.
And what’s so interesting is what they tell us is that they never truly
understood the benefits of the CRM that they were using. They only
saw it as a micromanagement tool, never as a sales enablement
tool. And it’s always inspiring to us to show how the Dub sales
operating system helps people record videos, create connections, and ultimately
get conversions. And this is the classic benefits, not features.
Benefits, not features. Benefits,
not features. Thank you. And that is the benefit method.
Let’s talk about now the presentation. And what you have
to be in today’s environment is that you need to present
like a Broadway show. I’ll repeat that you need to present like
a Broadway show. Here’s my jazz hand. Right? There we go. A little song,
little dance. But you want to have the ability to tell that story in
an engaging, entertainment way. That’s what people want. They want to hear
a story that is just pulling them in. So think about that. And what
we mean by a Broadway show for your sales effort is to provide so
much delight, to tell stories that captivates people,
and ultimately to get your customers to want to buy from
you. Not because you’re pushing them, but rather because you’re pulling them in.
One of our best examples on how to use video to delight is none other
than Tesla. What Tesla does is that they build features that
give massive benefits, but also that are just there to delight
people. Like the karaoke function, the built in games,
and even the Tesla that dances. Some of those videos garner
millions and millions of views on YouTube. And they are solely there to delight
us. And guess what? It sells. We are delighted.
And what are they doing? They’re putting on a show. The reality of the situation
is that to use video to delight your prospects does not
require any special technology at all. In fact, we’ve built
an entire platform on such easy to use tech so that
you and your sales team can start recording videos that convert.
So the first thing you want to do to get things started is click on
the button below sign up for dub. Once you do that, grab the
Dub mobile app from the Play Store or the App Store, and you get the
Gmail and LinkedIn integration. Get the Dub Chrome extension. So the first thing
that you’re going to want to do is to set up a simple call to
action. This is a link to your website. It’s a video reply. It’s a form
fill. It’s a link to your calendar or anything else that you’d like to do.
The second thing that you’ll want to do is to record a video. This can
be from your phone, from your webcam, or from your screen, if you
have something visual that you want to show. Once you’ve recorded the video,
the video landing page gets automatically created.
Here is what the video landing page looks like. Now, think about that for a
second. We recorded a video. We created a video landing page
that has a direct call to action on it. This, my friends, is the
ultimate sales conversion vehicle that is so
easy to use. So one of my favorite features on the Dub platform
is the video reply feature, which allows you to send a video to
someone with a simple call to action so that they can respond to you
with video. So by now, hopefully you understand the value of
the benefit method, which is providing value and benefits
to your prospects. The key here is using video.
It doesn’t stop at the videos that we create. We have to have videos of
social proof. And what I mean by this is video testimonials case studies
and demos of other people using your product or service. And one
of the best calls to action that you can use is called the
Reply with Video button. So, for instance, if you have someone out there
that’s bought your product or service, they want to put you over the moon in
terms of their review about what you’ve done. All you do is say,
please hit the Reply with Video button below, send me your testimonial
back. And then as soon as they do that, you can add that to your
case study page, which is easily built out for double. And the value of
capturing a video like that is that you can build a new video landing page
with that video, or you can add that video to a playlist so that when
you send a personalized video to someone, the video that will follow is a
testimonial video, and nothing will convert better than that.
What Ruben just mentioned is monumentally important. When you make a video,
the next video that plays in your playlist is one of
the most powerful videos you can create, because that next
video that’s coming is going to be so special. And you can
hint to that in the first video that you send. Check out this next video.
Right? And another benefit of the dub platform is to be able to
create a showcase page. And a showcase page is a number of
videos that live on that page that ultimately help you
get more conversions. So your sales Broadway show should answer
three questions that your buyers have. So number one is what
it does. Number two, how it works.
Number three, why they need it, and number four, who else
uses it? If your Broadway show can answer these four questions,
you are going to see your conversions skyrocket, because that’s what
your buyers are thinking about. And that is the benefit method. Chances are,
by now you’ve seen the power of video on the ecommerce sites that you’re
already using. For example, if you go to the Amazon homepage,
you’ll start to see live and prerecorded videos of influencers
that are selling products. This is an example of how consumers
need to see social proof. They need to see and feel what it
would be like if they own that product. And that is what drives conversions.
