📖 The Scoop

 Are sales cycles getting longer and prospects failing to buy? Is constant discounting of the price eroding your profit margin? Are your sales people busy but not effective because they are focusing on the wrong activities? Are changes needed but you are not sure what to do?

Selling has been compared to sports for years. So much so, that sales people are called the elite athletes of the business world. Why? Both professions are performance based, and their incomes are tied to their ability to consistently over achieve.

(Harvard Business Review).

Most sales managers would agree that coaching their sales teams is key job function contributing to their success, however few know how to do it properly. In fact, according to studies, only 7% of sales managers were found to be effective at coaching without training.
