Why Business Owners compound their sales problems, as opposed to dealing with them head on.

Why Business Owners compound their sales problems

Presidents, Business Owners and CEO’s all have, for the most part, good intent. In fact we all do what we do because we believe that it is the right thing to do. Unfortunately it is not always the most effective thing to do.


Sales ineffectiveness and pipeline bottlenecks ultimately create a situation where companies work harder and longer yet fail to gain real traction. This in turn results with the organization being stuck atop a sales plateau.

As opposed to dealing with the real root cause of sales ineffectiveness which in turn leads to bloated pipelines, which leads to a complacency in the mind of the sales team, business owners instead begin a process which is a series of common mistakes. This process is not relied on because management intends to set out to sabotage the company. We will first outline the process, and then we will detail the mistakes. This process is relied on because many at the top fall prey to several issues.

1) Business Owners become conditioned to the excuses, lies and reasons for deferring change by the sales team. They come to believe that 50%, 60% or 70& efficiency is the best they can achieve. In other words the Business Owner accepts 50%, 60 or 70% effort, yet they are held accountable to 100% of the salaries, commissions, bonus, benefits, advertising and marketing and other expenses necessary to maintain the sales team.


2) Business Owners fail to change their sales team’s minds, resulting in failure to change their routine.


3) Business Owners do not realize that in order to get someone to “think” differently, they first must get them to “feel” differently.


4) Business Owners want and desire change, yet fail to uncover their sales team’s “incentive” to change.

Sales Obstacles and how to confront poor sales performance

Business Owners, Presidents and CEO's: You invest more money into hiring and training more reps, invest in additional advertising and marketing, conduct more sales meetings— Are you achieving more productivity?

Regardless of how many rounds of golf your sales people play with prospects, or how many sale meetings or attempts you make to motivate your team, sales are simply not good. Now what?
Many Business Owners adversely impact their margins by dipping into the corporate pocketbook to implement a new bonus plan. At best this may elevate performance temporarily, only to have sales people fall back into their regular non-productive routine.

Some CEO's fall prey to the complaints and bad attitudes of sales people who say they have no leads, or no one to call. Opposed to dealing with the actual problem, poor closing skills, they again adversely impact their margins by investing into more advertising and marketing campaigns. They simple want you to spend more money for them to get more leads, to have more opportunity to close LESS business!

The Seven Deadly Growth Sins of CEO’s


The Seven Deadly Growth Sins of CEO’s





By Peak Performance Training and Development. A Leader in CEO/Sales and Sales Management Training. 866-816-0991
Business Owners: Have you been questioning your approach toward business development? Is there a correlation between your approach and the results that have you frustrated?
In an economy infested with contracting capital budgets, cynical decision-makers, and sales professionals with poor outlook and morale, managing (changing) yourself, your company and your sales people is critical to your bottom line.
In an extreme environment, Presidents, Business Owners and CEO’s often fail to implement and enforce change. Instead they resort to extreme behavior!
Which of the following common but ineffective and costly sales management approaches have you unknowingly been using?
1. Accepting the excuse that the poor sales performance is a result of the economy, and wait out the storm rather than implementing real change to increase sales.
2. Although a victim of expensive turnover, you continue to hire using the same criteria believing that your sales superstar is just around the corner!
