  • In this talk at MicroConf Growth US in 2022, April Dunford breaks down how to help your prospects buy your products. She explores how difficult it is for buyers to buy products, especially if they don't purchase your type of product on a regular basis. Your job is to help your customers make sense out of your offering, and to be a guide to help them purchase.
    April is the author of Obviously Awesome, a solid book that helps founders nail their positioning.

    Just like coming home! In Danish, I try to inspire by saying "Stop selling - help buying". Thanks, April Dunford!

    As a developer in an early-stage Startup I don't often think about sales, but this is very insightful and very useful to help navigate area's I'm working on with the customer in mind.

    Fear of making the wrong choice as a B2B buyer is real.

    Most B2B customers don't know if they had a need in the first place.
