In Penetration Selling, we therefore recognize that the key barriers which need to be penetrated during the presentation are: • Anything that might block the prospect from achieving a full understanding of the product, and even more importantly, • Anything that might block the prospect from gaining a good understanding of how the product will more than adequately satisfy his key needs and wants for owning that product.
