There are many misconceptions about modern selling. Some sales leaders immediately disregard the principles, claiming it is just another buzzword. Others are caught in the constant grind of achieving quota and cannot fathom trying to implement a new sales plan.

Changing course to weather the economic storm is a little like other initiatives that require leader visibility. To pivot successfully, you’ll need to rally the troops and build buy-in around the shifted approach. But unlike a launch, your plan for steering the ship through choppy waters comes with added background noise.

Diego, a trained scuba instructor, fled Argentina for Cancun in his mid 30’s to create a better life.

Sales reps forget 70% of training within a week and 87% within a month, Gartner research found — a concerning statistic for companies trying to train employees.
