    Remote Selling - The new normal

    Face to face selling in a B2B world has been the cornerstone of opportunity development for revenue retention and growth. Sure, online and telesales have steadily increased as a sales channel but pandemic and recessionary influences have accelerated a paradigm shift to the point where the new normal is bringing the decline of face to face customer interactions and the rise of remote selling. According to recent research from McKinsey two-thirds of buyers prefer remote inter

    Almost two years on and counting.....

    We are still living through extraordinarily challenging times and it does not look like changing anytime soon. Some would say, dare we say it, “this is the new normal”. Everyone is affected, whether it be medically, emotionally, financially or all of these. For many, there are more questions than answers leaving most wondering what to do to keep their business healthy and customers loyal. The financial impacts on sectors and industries is impeding and changing the way custom

    A Birds’ Eye View Makes Sense For Buyers

    Photography has always been a hobby and when opportunity arises, I usually grab my trusty Nikon and head out looking for that elusive shot. However, my whole perspective and passion changed on my last birthday – enter drone photography! All of a sudden, views that were previously hidden from me, become possible.

    5 Signs Your Business Needs a Sales Enablement Solution

    In today’s competitive business environment and volatile market conditions, sales organisations are under mounting pressure to attain revenue goals and sustain growth. Yet their average quota attainment rate is only 54% (1), and I would surmise the percentage has slipped even further in the aftermath of COVID-19. Meanwhile, B2B buying behaviours continue to shift as buyers become more empowered to make informed choices. 83% of B2B buyers expect companies to use new technologi

    Sales is Not Working – Don’t Guess – Know Why!

    It has almost become cliché, “The world has changed…” Yes, we all know that, but for the revenue generating part of your business this is even more acute. If sales effectiveness measures the output per salesperson, ask 100 people why sales is ineffective and you get 100 different answers, even within one’s own organisation. If one was to search Google, the responses are as wide as they are varied: Ineffective content marketing Failure in incorporating sufficient social medi

    How To Drive Sales Engagement and Close More Business Quicker

    Being an avid Amazon Kindle user, I love the fact that once I’ve finished yet another book, Amazon recommends books to me that are similar. Consider using Netflix where it knows what TV shows and movies you like. Use Spotify and it understands what your musical tastes are. Use Amazon again, and if you have a young child at home, it tells you that you probably need diapers and formula! And yet in our B2B world, we don't do that yet – despite buyers saying, “Show Me That You Kn

    The War on Talent: Finding and Hiring A-Players in Sales

    One of the key challenges most if not all of our customers have put to us, is: “Can you help us find good sales people and sales managers, as we simply cannot find them?” Regardless of whether this is for New Zealand, Australia, or, say, US-based roles, the hunt for talent is only getting harder. #salesperformance #salesstrategy #salesmanagement #salesleadership #coaches #businessdevelopment #sales #bdm #salesleader #salestips #selling #sales #salespeople So here are just som
