7.1 Improve your sales results
Why are sales lagging even though we know what a good sales process looks like?
Many commercial leaders understand the key elements of a successful sales process. They know the importance of building credibility, understanding customer needs, presenting solutions that align with those needs, managing sales conversations effectively, and nurturing long-term customer relationships.
Yet, despite this knowledge, organizations often struggle with inconsistent execution. Knowing the process is one thing, but applying it consistently across the team is another challenge. Sales teams may also lack deep insights into their customers, leading to misinterpretations of needs and missed opportunities. Communication breakdowns between sales reps and prospects can easily derail deals, and without strong follow-up, customer engagement weakens, impacting long-term success.
These barriers slow down even the most well-prepared sales teams, leading to frustration and underperformance.
"This training was unlike any other I’ve attended over the years, where the trainer just throws around buzzwords and states the obvious. Here, the focus was on how to sell effectively from the customer’s perspective rather than just closing and moving on. I can highly recommend this for new, fresh salespeople, as well as seasoned ones who believe they know it all simply because they've been out on the road for 30 years."
