    B2B selling is a complex combination of art and science. Understanding customers, what they want requires salespersons to be personally effective and brave themselves to be their company's brand. One has to rally the internal team to win the customers' confidence and garner the customer team's support to Win the Customer. Assessing customer needs and wants with appropriate questioning techniques and effective listening skills, to develop the perfect solution to craft a winning proposal, requires meticulous planning and teamwork.
