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 sales 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 Negative Impact of failure to change
Sales in the late nineties were very predictable and just seemed to come to you. Sales today are anything but predictable and most sales people fail to go out and make it happen. Relying on a few rainmakers to attain sustainable growth these days just does not work. These rainmakers merely allow you to remain above water. Relying on past lackluster hiring criteria in order to increase the number of feet on the street also does little more than compound your sales problem.

The Ramifications of Business Owners not holding their Sales People Accountable

Sales Accountability

As a Business owner you are held accountable everyday for everything. Rent, leases, advertising, salaries and commission. Whether sales come in…………..or Not! How quickly would a sales person fire you if your were consistently inaccurate with their pay…or slow to pay?

Call Peak Performance today to discuss how to get back on track…and stay on track. 866-816-0991

At Peak Performance Training & Development we find that one of the most difficult tasks for us as Sales Management Trainers is to actually get Business Owners, CEO’s and Presidents to stop and step outside the box in order to identify and uncover the root cause of their sales pr 

oblems. Symptoms are easily identified and are typically what most Business Owners and Sales Managers spend most of their time on. However, unless the root cause of the symptoms is discovered—what you see, is what you get.

The Traditional Approach to Handling Sales Obstacles

Traditional sales training organizations—those in the field of sales performance, those selling you technique based books, tapes, CDs and Seminar seats—focus solely on the symptoms. These symptoms include the failure to close, the inability to effectively prospect, the inability to differentiate your company from the competition, the failure to hold margins and so on. For those of you who have bought the books, tapes or CDs, or have attended sales seminars, motivational programs and even boot camps, known as Impact Training in the past, you may agree with the following.........

So, you want to break the self-destructive cycle of poor hiring decisions that have cost you so much money in the past and may continue to cost you money going forward if left unchecked?

After all, the majority of your time is dedicated to these poor hires not to the #top producers.

Why is it when we initially hire a new sales person, we have such high hopes for their ability and future production levels only to be disappointed down the road? Your gut feeling was that this was the one. However this was merely another one who cost you time, energy and money. How much has it cost you? How much will it cost you going forward?

Presidents and Business Owners, take our Complimentary CEO Diagnostic http://www.peakperformancesalestraining.com/CEOSolutions/ComplimentaryCEODiagnostic to uncover the gaps in sales and sales management inefficiency that create anchors to your success and growth.

Frustrations Associated with #Hiring

In an economy infested with contracting capital budgets, cynical decision-makers, and sales professionals with poor outlook and morale, selecting the right sales person is vital to your bottom line. #Hiring practices today require a novel approach that cuts through all the time-consuming feel-good bonding and gets right to the root of who WILL sell, as opposed to those who have sold.

Most Business Owners are frustrated by:

  • The high rate of sales staff turnover.
  • Their high expectations being met with low productivity levels.
  • Sales people who constantly drain their company of time, money and energy.
  • Sales people who spend more time making friends than money.
  • The investment of time, energy and capital to get sales people in front of decision-makers only for inadequate results in return.
  • Spending the majority of their time, energy and money (turnover) on the weakest sales people—those who consistently fail to confront objections, side with the prospect's reasons for deferring the sale, and who build a particularly bloated pipeline.
