The Answer Vault Is All About Your Expertise Helping Prospects

You solve customer problems every day with your industry knowledge. 

You’re not a marketing VP, but you do have the information needed to boost your company’s visibility right at your fingertips.

With the Answer Vault, you’ll be using what you already know to develop a structured approach to your marketing by focusing on the value you provide.

Stop Your Random Acts of Marketing 

If you’re just going through the marketing motions with no clear direction, you're missing out on potential business. 

Maybe your posting on social media is sporadic. That usually means the algorithms don’t show your content. Meaning you don’t get the engagement, and you’ve wasted time. 

Maybe you’ve tried blasting your email list with disjointed promotions that don’t stick, resulting in poor open rates and more unsubscribes. 

Maybe you saw your competitors' marketing efforts and tried to emulate them. But it isn’t working.

Reach Your Revenue Goals

You aren’t looking to become a multi-billion dollar company. 

But you have goals that can be reached just by boosting your marketing efforts.

The Answer Vault helps you reach your revenue goals by giving away your expertise to help people solve challenges and see you as a solution.

Be Found By Prospects 

On average, a person consumes 11.4 pieces of content before making a purchase decision.

These days, people are more honest with Google than anyone—even their spouse! 

Providing answers through digital marketing content is the best way to have your business be found. 

Make sure your business has a spot on the search results page by making information easily accessible for prospects who come looking.

Build Trust With Prospects 

Trust generates sales opportunities.

Providing complete and actionable expertise makes you a go-to resource for prospects.

Failing to deliver helpful information leads people to mark your emails as spam and tell Facebook your ads are irrelevant.

Even if the prospect doesn’t buy from you today, they’ll remember how helpful you were when they’re ready to make a purchase.   

Qualify Prospects By Getting Quick Nos

Up to 70% of the buying decision is made before talking to a salesperson.

By the time prospects get to you, they are aiming to clarify details and get final validation. 

You’ll close deals faster by answering the bulk of the questions before the prospect contacts you.

Shorten the Sales Cycle

79% of marketing leads never convert into sales.

Sales can use the Answer Vault to build trust with prospects and save time.

Your sales team is in conversation with prospects, getting a sense of their pressing questions. By sharing from your Answer Vault, they’ll help prospects get ready for sales conversations.

When prospects enter the sales conversation, they often have a range of questions,  from ‘What would it look like to work together?’ to ‘What are some of the limitations of your solution?’

With a well-stocked Answer Vault, your sales reps can share the information and put it in the prospect’s hands to build trust. Then, they can set up a short meeting to answer any follow-up questions. (Swapping out a tedious meeting with a rapport-building meeting.)

Your Sales And Marketing Teams Need To Know These Answers 

Treating your expertise like a well-kept secret means your company isn’t growing. People won’t hire you unless you’re open and transparent. Share the wealth of knowledge.

You want to be memorable.

The Answer Vault is a marketing and sales framework that will help you reach your revenue goals by helping prospects.

The Answer Vault works because, your expertise, your answers guide prospects through three steps of their buying journey

Answers help people...

Gain an understanding of the challenge they’re facing.

Buyers don’t wake up and decide to seek a product or service on a whim. They stumble into problems that require solutions. 

See possible solutions.

Placing challenges in context for the buyer allows them to see how they can go about solving them. Answers you provide at this stage guide prospects in their personal journey and close the gap between their problem and your solution.

Choose a solution. 

Ideally, your solution.* By answering prospects' burning questions, you’ve diverted your focus from selling to helping.

*The dream is that everyone becomes your client, but, as you know, that is unrealistic. People will choose you from many possible solutions. The Answer Vault will help keep right fit clients in your funnel and help wrong-fit clients find other solutions. Helping wrong fit clients means sales wastes less time on poorly qualified prospects and boosts your reputation as the most helpful company on the planet. 

Why 50? 

Because every buyer is different.

The questions one buyer will ask will be different than the next.

Sure, there will be plenty of overlap. There will be questions just about everyone asks. 

But the combination of questions will be one-of-a-kind, just like a fingerprint.

The questions they ask will be based on past experiences and current circumstances.

Having 50 answers prepared ensures that you’re ready for any buyer that comes your way.

Consider every angle.

Be ready for the curveballs. 

Some questions will be flat-out weird. Some will be ultra-specific. 

Sometimes, people ask the same question in a different way, until they can make sense of things, you and your solution.

Make sure your Answer Vault is prepared for anything.

You may need 100 or 150, or 200 answers 

50 answers isn’t always the right amount. You could need more, seldom fewer. You might need more answers when

  • You sell solutions solving distinctly different problems
  • You sell at significantly different price points
  • You sell to significantly different target audiences
