A common mistake I see sales leaders make is thinking that all Sales positions/people are the same. Selling is what you do. What your specific sales roles behavioral requirements are is unique. Is it a one call close? Is it managing and growing existing relationships and an existing book? Is the the wild west, anything goes? You cannot build capacity ontop of dysfunction. Churn and turnover of salespeople doesn’t have to be your reality. Turnover is VERY expensive. -recruiting -time interviewing -onboarding -training “I just need warm bodies in the seats is costing you alot of money. There are smarter, more objective ways to hire. #sales #hiring #turnover

The best Sales Leader ever? Yesterday I was speaking with Sales Leader who has an incredible track record. Of course I asked him how do you do it? In the interview process he asked every experienced Sales candidate. What was your quota last year and where did you finish? The same for the year before. How many people are on the Sales team where did you finish compared to them? What was your average win and big win. What coaching or mentor have you worked with. Then he tells them about the coaching and mentor programs they have. He then shows them a few documents for the previous three years. On the document there are no names however it shows you what the top earner made last year and what they were to plan. It shows you what the average earner was and what they were to plan. It shows you what the bottom earner made and what they were to plan. It also shows the dollar amount for the average win for the team. The big win for the team. The average conversion rate for the team. Then he asks them about their career so far and where would they like their career to go. If the candidate gets hired or does not get hired he stays in touch with everybody. Want a top performer? Get a Sales Leader with a great hiring process. If there is one thing every candidate will appreciate it is clarity and transparency in the hiring process especially with the compensation.

If you think you can "motivate" salespeople, you are dead wrong. This is my huge learning lesson after being at 8 startups, 3 exits and building a 550-person sales team (SMB & Enterprise). ✅ You must hire salespeople who are already "motivated" ✅ and put them into a "motivating" environment. That's easier said than done but it's way easier than having to use a cattle prod on your unmotivated salespeople to get them out of bed in the morning to do the work. I've learned that there are very few external forces that can change a salesperson from unmotivated to motivated. So don't bother, hire motivated salespeople to begin with.

Sales professionals are preoccupied with their next pitch and miss what the client is actually communicating. By really listening, salespeople can understand the underlying needs and concerns of their clients, which might not be directly expressed. This allows for more tailored solutions and shows genuine care towards the client's needs. In sales, when a client feels that their needs and thoughts are being attentively listened to, it lays the foundation for a trusting relationship. Similarly, leaders who listen actively can create a trustworthy environment, encouraging transparency and honesty among team members. #activelistener #communicationbarrier #salesprofessionals #india

Business Development is not about ability. Once you have learned the Skillset (I can teach you this), it is about the Mindset. My favourite BD stat: "85% of clients buy from salespeople who contact them 6 times or more, yet only 25% of salespeople go past the third engagement." To bring on board new new clients you need to be great at two things: 1. Being Resilient 2. Being Consistent End of post .....
