worth an estimated $3 billion by 2019. Recent

Pacific region. This technology, which was heavily
hyped during the initial phases of the Internet boom
of the 1990s, has recently made a major comeback.
As bandwidth demands continue to increase, fiber
optic technologies are best suited to handle the
reliable and fast transmission of large amounts of
data across long distances.
Selling Enterprises On Fiber Optics
Telecom agents face a unique set of challenges
when trying to sell enterprises on the benefits of
fiber optic technologies. Common examples include:
Limited access to key decision makers
A complex buying cycle that makes it difficult to
switch from one technology to another
Preexisting contracts with service providers
that have the enterprise locked in to another
technology or provider
The 6 Stages Of Enterprise Selling
The six pillars used to guide professionals through
the selling and deal-closing processes include:
Identifying goals. Set account-specific and
territory-specific objectives.
Find leads and opportunities. Seek out
opportunities that are most likely to close the gap
toward the goals identified in the previous step.
Engage prospective clients. Use proven
techniques to get access to high-level decision
makers. Beyond referrals, telecom agents can
deliberately ask questions that exceed the scope
of a mid-level contacts duties, potentially opening
the door to direct contact with a more senior
executive.
Create customized solutions. Take the time to
listen. Understand the particular prospects unique
needs, and create a custom solution to address
them.
Submit a proposal. Highlight benefits and illustrate
the specific ways in which the custom solution will
help the client.
Provide good service. Relationships dont end
with a sale. Continue to be accessible to clients
and provide timely responses to their concerns.
