A company uses the BANT model for sales qualification. What does BANT indicate to sales representatives?

BANT is a sales qualification model that stands for Budget, Authority, Need, and Timing. It helps sales

representatives identify and prioritize the most qualified prospects based on four key criteria:

Budget: The prospect has the financial resources to purchase the product or service.

Authority: The prospect has the decision-making power or influence to approve the purchase.

Need: The prospect has a specific problem or pain point that the productor service can solve.

Timing: The prospect has a clear timeline or urgency to buy the product or service. BANT helps sales

representatives focus on the most promising opportunities, avoid wasting time on unqualified leads,

and align their sales process with the customer’s buying journey. Reference: [Cert Prep: Salesforce
