What to do when the sale stalls
How many stalled sales do you have in your sales pipeline right now? You feel as though you have done everything right. You have connected well with your prospect, they have explained their business and relevant personal issues and you are working directly with the person who has the authority and ability to make the decision. They have given you all the right buying signals but the only problem is you can’t get them to sign on the dotted line and now they aren’t returning your calls.

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 Power is in the Question
Does sales management seem to be lost in the wilderness at your company? Was your sales manager your top rated sales person that you promoted based on sales performance? 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?
