. . Happy holidays! Are you feeling like the “ Donald ” again? I know that it is very difficult to downsize your sales force. How do you think your remaining sales team will perform? Can you say with good conscious that your sales force is making a difference? You are selling “me-to” drugs with minimal points of difference.

Conventional wisdom—that something called a “lead” can and should be had at consistently lower price points where it will still deliver value—is at the root of a host of sales and marketing problems and deserves a closer look. The value of a lower cost-per-lead approach may have merit early in the funnel where inbound marketing and marketing automation can be helpful in moving large numbers of sales prospects to raise their hands and express interest.

Maximizing sales rep performance is no easy task. 📈 Traditional sales training methods focus heavily on the first few weeks in the sales role. Companies dedicate time, resources, and budget to onboarding new hires, only for them to forget what was learned in those first few weeks, lose motivation, and struggle to come to grips with their role.

There is a counter-intuitive relationship between lead volume and sales performance. With sales organizations facing lower numbers, it seems logical to turn to volume lead generation to fill their pipelines with more and more sales leads in hopes that some will turn into sales. After all, shouldn't more leads deliver more opportunities? In reality, just the opposite often turns out to be true.

The Power of Impact; what is your plan for 2011. An interesting Thoreson theorem; the more you personally impact the lives of others, the more you succeed professionally. One of the points I make during my keynote program is the need for a person to find balance in their lives=both personally and professionally. When you find an individual that is working on improving others lives, you generally find a person that is also successful from a professional perspective.

Once upon a time, in the vast realm of online commerce, there lived a humble checkout button overlooked by many. Yet, within its humble click lay the power to transform a mere visitor into a loyal customer. 🧐 💡 Getting checkout right can mark the difference between a successful sale and an abandoned cart, yet many businesses fail to make payments a part of their commerce strategy even when it has a direct impact on revenue.
