The three main stages of pre-sales work are: 1) Judging business opportunities, where pre-sales and sales collaborate to assess potential deals and be cautious of overly perfect client demands. 2) Requirement analysis, where the feasibility of client needs is evaluated, including whether third-party collaboration is needed. 3) Client solution interaction, involving technical Q&A and business negotiations, often leading to bidding or direct contracts.
Pre-sales need to understand their own and their company's capabilities to effectively manage project expectations and avoid overpromising. This awareness helps in identifying when to involve external partners or internal teams like product managers and technical experts, ensuring that solutions are feasible and aligned with the company's strengths.
Pre-sales acts as a bridge between sales and technical teams by translating client needs into actionable technical requirements. They ensure that the technical team understands the client's expectations and that the sales team is informed about the feasibility and limitations of the proposed solutions, facilitating smoother project execution.
Xiaomi recommends building a comprehensive personal knowledge base that includes demand libraries, industry knowledge, competitor analysis, solution libraries, and case studies. This knowledge base helps pre-sales professionals prepare better for client interactions, improve sales efficiency, and prevent potential issues by leveraging past experiences and industry insights.
In large projects like the supermarket membership platform, pre-sales play a crucial role in leading the requirement analysis rather than handling it alone. They coordinate with various internal teams and external partners to ensure that the solution is comprehensive and feasible, addressing both high-level strategic needs and ground-level operational challenges.
