Application Selling is defined as: the ability to identify opportunities within which to position an existing, fixed-scope and configurable offering that delivers a 'defined outcome' for the customer to meet a 'defined need'.

This is defined as: the ability to identify opportunities within which to position a fully functionally defined, stand-alone component. Components in themselves usually do not deliver 'end user' functionality. Hence, a Transactional Sale is much more about the technical integration of a component into an application coupled with justification as to why the seller's component will perform better than another.
