Role-play Script #1: Needs Discovery Using SPIN Technique (from Ch. 4)
Read "Heartland Technology and Metro Insurance Services," Ch. 4, p. 106. This assignment is attached below in JPEG format. More information on chapter 4 will be attached below in PowerPoint format.
Follow the directions at the end of this role-play, but use the SPIN technique. Do not use the ADAPT technique. The SPIN questioning technique is a tool to discover the problems and needs of a potential customer -- problems that you might be able to solve.
This role-playing exercise is not a complete sales presentation. The purpose of this assignment is to ask only one question for each of the four SPIN question types. For example:
Situation question; Buyer's answer
Problem question; Buyer's answer
Implication question; Buyer's answer
Need-Payoff question; Buyer's answer
End the role-play at that point.
Actions required:
1. Create the role of the salesperson.
2. Create a fictional role of the buyer.
3. Submit an 800-word Word Document for this assignment
