How meaning drives sales

Accenture Strategy’s December 2018 Global Consumer Pulse Research finds that a majority of consumers across the globe prefer buying from brands that take a stand on issues they care about, and avoid those that don’t.

Its 14th annual research studyFrom Me to We: The Rise of the Purpose-Led Brand,” surveyed nearly 30,000 consumers worldwide (2,000+ US consumers) and found that “purpose” is the elixir driving successful brands today.

  • Purpose is influencing purchasing decisions: Nearly two-thirds (63%) of consumers prefer to buy goods and services from companies that stand for a shared purpose that reflects their personal values and beliefs.
  • Consumers want companies to speak up: 62% want companies to take a stand on social, cultural, environmental and political issues close to their hearts. Another 62% say their purchasing consideration is driven by a company’s ethical values and authenticity.
  • Consumers are attracted to companies that care: They like companies that are committed to using good-quality ingredients (76%), treat employees well (65%), and believe in reducing plastics and improving the environment (62%).
  • When companies fall short, consumers are quick to ditch them: Nearly half (47%) have boycotted the company as a result of their actions.

Program outcomes

Where the program has impact

It starts pre-experience with a 10 minute on-line survey taken by your team members that identifies their individual “purpose type”.

We then deliver a 2 to 3 hour interactive workshop utilising agile methodologies that…

  • Helps your team understand and explore their personal purpose type and the ways that connects them (or doesn’t!) to what they’re being asked to sell
  • Find the commonalities with their team-mates between their personal purpose types
  • Creates a new “balcony” from which to view the “what” and “how” of your sales process and develop innovation and evolution
  • Leave with a personal strategy and commitment for putting what they’ve found into action
  • It’s been a learning experience underpinned by quality data, experienced facilitators and a high energy and engaging approach – they will be energised and excited
  • Purpose is now alive in the work and mindset of your people and their teams 
  • Your teams can now see the connection between their personal purpose, each other and your organisation’s purpose…and new lines of enquiry as to how to sell have been established
  • Purpose is no longer the statement on the wall…it is in their personal commitment to your vision
  • Sales team building and team engagement
  • Sales training and kick-off meetings and conferences
  • Bringing mis-aligned or under-performing sales teams together
  • Bringing new sales teams together
  • Preparing sales teams for product launches and new ranges
  • Competitor set exploration and comparison

“We have been working with Tony for the last 6 months and the team are loving the experience. Comments from the team such as “He helps us access what is there in front of us but we haven’t seen it” – “My interaction with our partners is so much easier and enjoyable now as we have a shared purpose".

The program we are on with Tony is adding real benefit to the team, having group meetings and then each team member having one-on-one sessions with him has taken our team performance to a whole new level in a very short time.

Tony has a gift for positively engaging with people, and this with the knowledge he is gained about our industry is giving us an unfair advantage in the market.”
