Speeding up your iPaaS sales

Strategies to overcome client pushback on high iPaaS costs.

By Asgeir Olafsson

System Integrators and IT Consultancies frequently encounter a significant challenge: losing deals or slowing the sales process down because of the existing integration offering (or a lack thereof). Prospects often balk when the integration solution seems disproportionately expensive for their specific needs.

One effective solution to overcoming this challenge is adopting a more affordable iPaaS platform. By switching to a cost-effective integration solution, sales teams can offer prospects a more competitive price point, making it easier to secure initial deals and build lasting partnerships. An affordable iPaaS provides the flexibility to present a tailored solution that fits the prospect's actual integration needs without forcing them into a large, costly commitment.

Affordable iPaaS expansion

Furthermore, a less expensive iPaaS enables sales professionals to successfully execute their "land and expand" strategy more effectively. With a lower-cost solution, it is easier to convince prospects to start small—focusing on one or two immediate integration needs—without overwhelming them with excessive costs upfront. As the client experiences the benefits of the initial solution, there is natural room for growth, allowing the sales team to upsell additional services and expand the integration scope over time.

Right-sized integration solutions

Not to forget. In many cases, expensive iPaaS platforms are overkill for a client's requirements. Not every business need enterprise-level tools or massive data integration capabilities. A more streamlined, affordable integration solution is often more than sufficient to meet the client's needs while keeping costs under control. The analogy of "why bring a sledgehammer to crack a nut?" rings true here—there is no need to burden clients with unnecessarily complex and costly systems when a simpler solution will do the job just as well, if not better. implement solution that meets the customer's requirements. This efficiency can significantly shorten the sales cycle, as customers feel more confident in the feasibility and reliability of the integration.
