The discovery framework
5-part structure: rapport, current state, pain/impact, future state/decision, next steps.
Best practices
Listen more than you talk (70/30 ratio for top performers). Ask open-ended questions. Quantify pain in dollars. Map the buying committee. Set explicit next steps.
Common discovery mistakes
Pitching too early. Generic questions. Skipping the decision process. No quantification of pain. No mutual commitment at the end.
