Remember back in pre-pandemic days when sales teams conducted lavish SKOs in person, perhaps with an option to dial in? Things are a bit different today. Some organizations are returning to in-person sales kickoffs, some are holding exclusively virtual events, and others turning to some form of hybrid event. Either way, the same challenge remains: How can you deliver an engaging SKO that spurs reps on into the new fiscal year?

Trust is fundamental in any highly engaged, high-performing team. Without trust and integrity, people question why they want to work for a company or manager who doesn’t have convictions. When asked, highly engaged employees describe their companies and leaders as “authentic” or “genuine.”. Building trust takes time. Whether in person or virtually, it can take months or years to build a solid base of trust, but it takes just minutes to lose it.

As we discussed in yesterday’s blog , too many of your prospects are fascinated with Simple Payback Period, and it makes NO sense to focus on that metric in situations where you’re comparing mutually exclusive solutions (i.e., situations where your prospect has two or more solutions to pick from, but at the end of the day can pick only one).

By Beverlie Heyman, Bigtincan/Brainshark Director of Sales Enablement and WiSE Chapter Lead/Enablement Strategist/Coach. Who do you trust more — your boss or your colleague? Your mom or your sister? Your friend who’s the top student in the class or the teacher? People tend to be more receptive to advice from their peers than from authority figures or those outside of their direct circles.

All sales organizations want to sell more products. This will be as true in the future as it was in the past. Of course, one way is to hire more sales reps. But with the time and cost of recruiting, onboarding, and training new reps, this can be prohibitive. Another way is through channel sales or third-party partners. While direct selling has its advantages, it’s not always enough for today’s changing markets.

Regular readers already know that personality assessments are not predictive of sales success because they measure personality traits, not sales core competencies.

Organizations with a standard onboarding process boost employee retention by 58% and increase productivity by 50%. Unfortunately, many companies struggle with inefficient processes that lead to high turnover and missed revenue opportunities.

Countries around the globe are implementing stricter regulations and larger fines in order to protect the rights of the individuals whose data is being collected. As a data privacy specialist in the UK, I often hear this question from customers and prospects: “How do we remain compliant as we expand into new regions?” It can be difficult to sift through privacy regulations and know which aspects are most relevant to your business.

Now, imagine a world in which you can offer all interested participants a ride to your latest store opening or conference, and only pay for the ride if they actually attend.

Venture capital is a vital source of financing for startups and early-stage companies looking to bring their innovative ideas to life. It’s a high-risk investment with the potential for huge returns, so volatile markets, global instability, and a cooling economy can affect how VCs write checks. We’ve seen all of those factors come into play over the past three years, and the influence on VC is pretty clear.

Sometimes, I think we think about value too restrictively. . Historically, we tended to focus value as something we did exclusively “for” customers. As sellers we know that value creation and realization are critical in engaging our customers. In recent years, we’ve started looking at value creation more broadly. We’ve started looking at it as a collaborative process, working with our customers.

How many times have you had this exchange with prospects? You say, “Hey there, how are you?” They respond, “I’m good, thanks. And you?" You say, “I’m good too, thanks for asking.”. Zzzzzzz. There’s nothing wrong with kicking off a conversation by asking how someone is doing, but it definitely won’t lead to any memorable dialogue. When you’ve only got a couple minutes to build rapport with someone, you don’t want to waste time on conversational fluff.
