It’s a question I’ve asked a couple of times in workshops and online, and it’s a question that was triggered by a few ‘posts’ I read, stating that. salespeople today don’t execute on the basics.

No More Cold Calling

Sales leaders must take the rap. We used to hire account based sales reps, indoctrinate them with product knowledge and a smattering of business culture, and give them a few lead generation tools. Then we gave them a phone, a list, and, a desk, and expected them to figure out how to book meetings. They ended up cold calling. Frustrated, many of them left, and we started the process again.

This can have a negative effect on many salespeople.

I remember my first sales job out of college. It was working for a company that sold investments – limited and general partnerships – to high net worth individuals around the country. My job was to make 150 cold calls a day, identify prospects, and then send out a brochure that I would follow up on a few days later to pitch and try to close. It was hard going, lots of resistance and lots of hang ups.

When you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot in it and hang on. – Franklin D. Roosevelt. But you cannot show it. The very thing that most people fear about telling a salesperson or business owner ‘no’ is a bad reaction.
