In today's highly competitive market, it's no longer enough for a sales organization to differentiate itself solely based on its offering. The most successful companies today are those that create differentiation in their initial sales process and the customer’s journey. That level of execution requires that leaders enable every customer-facing team and role to be fluent in a unified sales message, strategy, and execution.

We got 3 inches. It harkened me back to the good old days before the incredible weather technology we have now. When I was growing up in the 1960’s, I watched meteorologist Don Kent give his weather forecasts on WBZ channel 4 in Boston.

Advancements in AI have some people concerned. I understand that. I have seen ChatGPT write some clever things, causing me to wonder if my work will soon be done by machines. After using the generative AI tool for more than a year, though, I am a lot less worried. That’s because gen AI tools still need humans to create quality content. When it comes to writing, humans must input the prompts and then assess the output and often edit it.

So, figuring that money talks, you start thinking about monetary ways to handle the issue. You consider two alternatives. You could either punish frequent latecomers by reducing their annual bonuses, or reward folks who show up on time with a small supplement to their bonus.

Maximizing sales rep performance is no easy task. 📈 Traditional sales training methods focus heavily on the first few weeks in the sales role.
