Is a recession looming? I remain optimistic that the economy will continue to do well, but others feel the economic uncertainty. I see it in several sectors. CEOs are getting nervous and laying people off. . Traditional wisdom says you must hunker down during a recession and weather the storm. The focus is normally on cost-cutting and survival. And that is the behavior we are seeing from some already, even though a recession hasn’t been declared. .

I know you have heard it before. You know, the line that goes like this “if you keep doing what you have always done, you will keep getting what you have always gotten.” As a coach, the most development I have seen in salespeople comes when they alone decide enough is enough which leads them to make changes. And sometimes those changes are hard to make.

That makes the IRS larger than the State Department, Customs and Border Control, the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation) and the Pentagon (Military) combined.

Research from SBI’s 2022 CEO survey indicates that top CEOs are getting crisper on their value creation strategy, evolving that strategy to account for less commercial investment, and determining new productivity levers to still meet growth expectations.

If your car was manufactured in the last few years, you probably have a rear camera that helps you see your surroundings when you need to back up, back into a parking space, or drive backwards on the interstate at 65 MPH. Okay, maybe not the last one. Somehow, my Genesis GV80 always knows to display its rear and overhead cameras when I'm pulling into the garage.

Buyers are savvier, buying teams are larger, and new research shows that buyers' attention spans have dropped to just 8 seconds. This means that the old approach of blasting buyers with email-heavy, generic communications no longer works. Instead, buyers need to be surrounded with relevant communications and personalized, self-service content throughout their journey.

Words are powerful. And the words we choose to use during our sales conversations can make or break the opportunity to close that sale and help that person. Our words have the power to “make” the experience good, bad, or indifferent for that prospective client. Our words allow us to educate, excite, remove fear, and gain commitment as well as provide clarity, comfort, and hope.

Many companies find that their teams work in silos. Instead of collaborating, they operate in parallel. But the pace of change means these companies can end up off the mark if they don’t work across teams, toward common goals. This is a common problem when it comes to creating sales content.
