Sales Management – How to conduct effective meetings sales team

September 01, 2011   admin   No comments

MeetingIf you have a sales team or are considering building one, at some point have to figure out how (and if) you want to perform the group’s sales team meetings. This article answers some frequently asked questions about the sales team meetings.

How often does the sales team meetings take place?

I’m not a big fan of regular meetings of the sales team. I find it boring to go person by person and discuss the specific opportunities, the percentage that each individual is the quota, etc.

One thing is that if a seller is doing something unusual or unique in the search for an opportunity and share what they are doing would be a good learning experience for other vendors. However, usually find that most of the discussions on individual opportunities are not very rewarding for the members of the sales of others.

How To Recruitment sales numbers

August 30, 2011   admin   No comments

recrutement-selectionI talk to many entrepreneurs and managers who do not have much experience with the hiring of sales (or, more specifically, the recruitment of sales success). I ask lots of questions about numbers and ratios, including:

How many resumes should I expect to receive when I post a recruitment ad sales?

What percentage of respondents should I expect to schedule phone calls screened?

What percentage of respondents are likely to “pass” filtering of phone calls and guarantees an interview in person?

How many candidates should plan to evaluate?
I am happy to share information about the numbers and proportions that experience by delivering “a la carte,” hiring sales services for customers. Let’s take a look granular steps in the process of recruiting and sales (if any) numbers associated with each step.

1. Writing effective ad sales recruitment 

What is an effective ad sales recruitment? One that clearly identifies the key capabilities and features needed to succeed in the position of your company sales. An announcement of actual sales order also prevents recruitment capabilities / features that do not directly affect sales success.

Latest 4 Tips for finding new customers in hard times

August 15, 2011   admin   No comments

Finding-New-ClientsI used to hate cold calling. I found it soul-destroying and, for someone who just wanted to be in front of a “live” one, which was sapping the energy to do so by phone. Call after call after call. They can not see, I do not know how they are reacting to what he is saying and easy way for them to say they are not interested.

Therefore, although we know that cold calling works in building their customer base, is there a better way in difficult times? The good news is that yes, yes and yes. We just have to change our way of thinking to do business within our four walls. We have to go out and find new customers. Even retailers now have to think about finding ways to not only get new customers, but how to come back more often. And that means that the most proactive.

Networking 

Networking is the first thing most people think of when looking for new customers. Ah, yes, the perfect formula. Find new customers for breakfast, lunch or a glass of wine in hand! But the sales people who are simply mixed with other people also looking for new customers. And in small business, which is not bad. You will find companies that will build a support network, but that’s not what people are looking for sales. It is no secret to networking. It’s a bit like the bank robber who was asked why he robbed banks. He replied: “Because that’s where the money is.” It makes sense, and is in the network where your clients will be.
