Tale of Two Clients - Sales Training! :) versus Saaaales Training (:
| |
| Here's an interesting comparison for you.
Two client companies are on the exact same sales development time line. (Same time line but separate from each other - they don't even know about each other)
Both of their sales forces went through sales force evaluations at the exact same time.
Both of their sales management teams were developed at the same time.
Both of their sales organizations received sales infrastructure help (sales process, sales pipeline, metrics, sales recruiting process, etc). |

Tale of Two Clients - Sales Training :) vs. SAAAALES TRAINING :(
| |
| You've heard it before. It flows down hill. Your organization can only be as effective as the weakest leadership link. When it comes to a sales development initiative, you must start out committed and remain committed to drive the process until the change you demand has been accomplished. Anything short of that is a formula for failure. |

Are You Kissing Frogs Or Making Sales?
| |
| Most of us were taught "You have to kiss many frogs before you meet the handsome prince." The problem is you've probably applied this philosophy to getting business as well!
When I first started selling years ago, I was told the exact same thing. My boss actually threw the Yellow Pages on my desk and said
"Go Get 'Em Kid!" (I kid you not)

Why hire a Sales Coach when I already have a Sales Manager?
| |
| Most companies already have a sales manager or person in charge of sales in some capacity, so why hire a sales coach? Many sales mangers are not trained in the subtleties of effective sales coaching nor have they developed the necessary skills and tools to be effective sales leaders. The most common way to hire a sales manager is to simply promote your best sales person. This logic suggests this person is the most qualified to lead the sales team based on their past sales achievements. This type of ‘promotion by necessity’ is common, but not commonly successful. In the process you may even lose your top sales performer when their leadership abilities fail to match their sales ability. |

Is Your Sales Training Missing These Ingredients?
| |
| The last time you went on sales training, were you engaged in the decision?
How long was the sale training and/or was the sales training ongoing or was it just the flavor of the month?
When or what day(s) of the week was the sales training delivered - during pay time or no pay time?
Did the sales training take your personal sales needs and learning methods into consideration?
Were you able to apply the sales training methods in the real world? Were you encouraged to return for further sales training or to meet with your sales coach and discuss your experience?
Was the sales training based on sales management objectives? |

The Three Biggest Mistakes in Sales Presentations
| |
| The sales presentation is the ultimate purpose of every sales process, of every sales call, and of every sales system. The job of the sales person revolves around the point in time when he offers the customer something to buy. Without the sales presentation, there can be no sale. It is, then, the foundational step in the sales process. Everything that happens before is in preparation for the presentation, and everything that happens afterward is a result of the presentation. Alas, that is not the case. Left to learn on their own, many sales people make the same mistakes over and over again. Here are the three most commonly made sales presentation mistakes.

The Power is in the Question

Did your sales manager ever receive any formal sales management training? Do you think your sales force needs to be more aggressive? Are you following best practice principles?
