WHAT IS MEDDIC?

MEDDIC is the original name of the sales methodology that is now more commonly referred to as MEDDICC and MEDDPICC.

It is widely adopted by the world’s best performing organizations and GTM teams because of its simplicity and depth. 

You can introduce MEDDIC to help you qualify your deal at the earliest opportunity and it will stay relevant throughout the deal’s evolution, allowing you to focus on what matters at each stage. Not only that, MEDDIC can be utilized by the entire Go-To-Market team across the full customer lifecycle, allowing the whole organization to be aligned on their approach.

MEDDIC is particularly well-suited for complex sales processes. These tend to require engagement with multiple stakeholders and often will need a tailored solution. This is where MEDDIC thrives.

Adopting MEDDIC within your team can be challenging

Which version of MEDDIC should you implement?

When you meet someone who supposedly ‘knows’ MEDDIC, there’s always a difference in their understanding and how they actually use it.

On one end you’ve got ‘MEDDIC’ — the original sales qualification framework. 

On the other, you’ve got ‘MEDDPICC’ — a modern methodology that helps you handle the complex Paper process (P) and increased Competition (C) in modern selling.

This makes adopting MEDDIC (or any of its variations) within your team extremely challenging.

At MEDDICC, we’re on a mission to help you embed a common MEDDIC language across your organization.

When you join MEDDICC Membership, we don’t just give you access to the training (taken by 20,000+ students) to give everyone a solid foundation - we give you the tools and resources to help you embed MEDDPICC principles into your day-to-day operations.

Before

With no visibility on why you win or lose opportunities, you can't predict success.

  • Without a concrete methodology, you can't measure where things are going right (or wrong!)
  • Guesswork about the underlying reasons for a deal's outcome wastes time and resources
  • Success is hard to replicate, and mistakes are hard to avoid
  • Not being sure on the necessary next steps lead to dreaded "Just checking in! messages
After

With a common language, you're aligned on how success is measured.

  • More accurate and efficient communication leads to better forecasting
  • Clarity on success criteria helps sellers better qualify deals, saving time and resources
  • Visible and cohesive processes mean the next step is always clear
  • Leaders can make effective and strategic decisions due to reliable data
