Consultative selling is a selling technique in which the salesperson acts as an expert consultant for his prospective customers. Advising the best possible solution for their customer is as important to them as meeting their own sales goals. In consultative sales, the salesperson gains knowledge about his customers’ business and needs before making his sales pitch.
