Research by TOPO indicates that the reason 83.4% sellers fail to hit quota (their number) is because of their improper time management skills. Why is this? It’s because sellers mistakenly spend a disproportionate amount of time of equalizing touches on all accounts, or spend too much time with accounts that aren’t ready to buy yet. Whether your sellers are targeting 10, 100, or 1000 accounts at a time, time management is a blessing for quota crushing A-players, and the kiss of death for your B &

I don’t know why I picked up the phone, I knew better. It was one of those calls, you know what I’m talking about, the area code and the first three digits of the phone number exactly matched mine, but it was a number I didn’t know.

In a previous post, The Hidden ROI of Sales Training , I described certain ROI as being “hidden” much of the time.

Here is the next in my series on salesperson fitness. Sales ethics is the subject of many books, and the subject of chapters of yet other sales books. It’s something that many experts think every salesperson needs to worry themselves about. And so they should! But I don’t think they should worry themselves about it in the way that these books spell out, and I think that the subject may be far simpler than many sales experts would lead you to believe.
