TOPICS

Are Your Salespeople Engaged in Their Work?
The best way to generate revenue is to have a sales team that is happy and engaged in their work. If sales managers know how their salespeople feel about their job they can make changes accordingly.

Goal Based Selling Motivates Salespeople
How can sales managers motivate their sales team? True motivation must come from within, but knowing what motivates each and every salesperson is key to setting goals.

Effective Prospecting Puts an End to Cold Calling
Cold calling is inefficient and ineffective. Running an effective prospecting campaign should be a joint effort between marketing and sales, yet most salespeople are left to do this on their own.

Giving Bad Customers the Pink Slip
Not all business is good business. “Firing” bad customers leaves time to nurture and grow your good and great customers. You might even find time to go out and find new customers.

Generating Leads Without Conflict
Is sales a part of marketing or is marketing a part of sales? Understanding what it means to prospect can bring clarity to this age-old management territory debate.

Hiring is the Key to a Good Sales Staff
Prospecting skills are different than other selling skills. When managers hire salespeople they often look for someone who has a history of meeting or exceeding quota, or a good closer. Many managers then wonder why the heavy hitter they hired is sitting around waiting for leads.

Time Management Critical in Sales
Time management is an ongoing challenge for everyone. Since most salespeople like prospecting least, they leave it until last and don’t give it the attention it deserves.

Coaching Can Change Sales Culture
Most sales managers spend only 20% of their time coaching their salespeople to close business. Every chief executive in America should change their sales culture to make certain sales managers can spend 80% of their time coaching.


Coach to Create Top Performers
Avoid missed quotas by debriefing salespeople immediately after the sales call. Consistent planning before a call and routine debriefing after the call will result in shorter sales cycle, more efficient selling and better closing ratios.

Penetrating Large Accounts
Targeting the key buyers in a large account is essential. Once you know ‘who’, find out ‘how’ to penetrate the large accounts by developing and executing an effective strategy.

When Deals Stick in the Pipeline
Closing is not about the salesperson or your company. It’s about the customer and their needs and timeline.

Selling is About Listening, Not Presenting
Steady, consistent sales come when we learn about our customers, their goals, their problems and their vision for growth and then determine if there is a fit between that and our product or service.

Changing Your Sales Culture: Everybody Sells the Company
Everyone who comes in contact with the customer has the opportunity to make or break that relationship. That is sales. Every one of your employees should be a walking advertisement for your company.
