Improve sales productivity by boosting confidence in your
middle majority
Do your sales follow the Pareto principle, where 80% of your
revenue comes from 20% of your producers? If you, like many
companies, are trying to do more with less, then it's time to
leverage your middle majority of sales performers. We're not
suggesting that you can turn a B or C player into an A+, but you can
easily pull them up a half letter grade or more. How? Improve their
confidence! Nothing improves sales effectiveness more than
confidence.
So how can we help? First let's analyze what your middle performers say
and do on a sales call and compare that to your top performers. Then
let's focus solely on the things that are easily transferable.
Things like linking pains/objections to customer success stories,
asking probing questions, competitive positioning, product knowledge
and more. Often sales people have been exposed to this information
already - but if they don't remember it during a sales call, they
lose confidence, momentum and ultimately the sale - and there aren't
second chances in sales. Once we have a strategy outlined, then
let's execute it with our Q salesforce alignment tool.
Because when your middle performers remember to apply product benefits,
link a prospect's pain to a success story, articulate a policy
correctly, identify a cross-selling opportunity or overcome an
objection - they gain confidence - and confidence drives sales - and
sales from middle performers means better pipeline quality and less
over-reliance on top performers.
Q from count5 can help. Q provides the discipline, structure and
focus your middle majority needs to drive confidence and to improve
sales effectiveness and results.
