Command of the Message® User Guide

OM User Guide | CoM

This guide includes user documentation for the Command of the Message® Opportunity Manager® Salesforce app.

  • What is Command of the Message?

    Equip your entire customer-facing organization to effectively create and capture value with their sales message.

    Command of the Message is a repeatable framework that guides the customer conversation face-to- face, over the phone and digitally, throughout the customer engagement process. The methodology’s foundation is cross-functional company alignment on the Value Drivers and Differentiators that are top-of-mind for your most influential buying audiences. Clearly defining these buyer topics and the sales message provides on-ramps into multiple levels of the customer organization and allow your team’s message to transform and resonate with the appropriate audience.
