Happy New Year! Overwhelmed by all your “to-do” goals? If so, then take a tip from Brian Tracy and do this: Make a list of your top ten goals for the year. Think about what’s most important to you in the different areas of your life and write down ten things. Next, prioritize that list so that the most important goal is number one. Then: throw away the other nine goals and make a commitment to making that number one goal a reality in the next twelve months.

We’ve all heard stories of how generative AI has been amazing for so many people out there, with some companies using the technology to create significant gains in productivity.

In reading an article about the latest hints and tips in using AI for prospecting, a sentence stood out to me. It talked about how “mundane” outbound is. The idea of reaching out, trying to engage prospects in talking about their challenges, problems, concerns, as well as their dreams and aspirations is boring and dull is striking. And, perhaps, it is this mindset that underlies the poor results we get from our prospecting.

Navigating through the selection process to find the next strong addition to your team can feel like navigating through an obstacle course. The direction that seems like a safe bet may be mired with hidden traps. The direction that makes your internal “red flags” go up could be just as dangerous, though. How do you know what the right decision is? Let’s walk through some common “red flags” and “green lights” hiring managers experience with candidates.

So, like, I’ve been a salesperson for years and, well, I’ve learned kind of a few things. And today, I want to, um, share some of what I’ve learned with you — if that’s okay? If you’re a salesperson and you speak like this, here’s a reality check: It is going to be very, very hard to convince prospects to buy. No matter how much you know, if you don’t speak like an authority figure, you’ll never be treated like one.

Back in August, I wrote an article about Dinger’s torn ACL and how the Veterinarian went about her sales process to strongly recommend (sell us) the most expensive surgery. She also set expectations by telling us that when a dog tears one ACL, it’s not uncommon for them to tear the other ACL. When Dinger was fully recovered from his surgery, and on the very first day he was allowed to chase a ball, he tore the other ACL while he was returning the ball to me.

The art of door-to-door sales is timeless — even during the rise of modern sales strategies. There’s no two ways about it: D2D sales can be tricky. That said, the typical base salary for D2D reps is around $61,800 per year — a figure above the national average. To top it off, high performers can earn over $100,000 annually. So, if you can master the art of door-to-door sales, the juice is worth the squeeze on the income front.

The sales performance management activities that we are performing today are creating the results we are achieving today. Many or few, consistent or irregular, planned or impromptu, the sales performance management activities that we, as sales managers, use to motivate, train and hold our sales team accountable are at least partly responsible for the success or lack of success of those we manage.

Data has been called the “new oil” because of its value to today’s computer systems. When it comes to AI, data is critical. AI needs huge amounts of data for training. Essentially ChatGPT is now giving us access to a portion of the knowledge out there on the Internet (which is a lot—at least 1,200 petabytes.) For many of us our focus over the last several months has been how to develop the best prompts to get the best responses from ChatGPT.

Relationships drive sales—always have, always will. Most sales teams miss quota year after year. Yet, quotas continue to increase. Doesn’t make much sense, does it? Sales leaders bemoan that they don’t have enough qualified leads in the pipe, that their people aren’t getting meetings with decision-makers, that they can’t seem to differentiate themselves from competitors.

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.

When it comes to finding a good metaphor, many people begin with a concept and often turn to ChatGPT for the best metaphor that will communicate that concept. For example, you need a better way to position your service, or an answer to an objection, or a clever opening to a speech. But, suppose you have a different challenge. Suppose you need to come up with a brief, clear, NON-metaphorical way to explain a wordy technical issue.
