“The Foot Bone Connected To The Leg Bone, The Leg Bone Connected To……”

Partners in Excellence

There’s the old children’s song, “The Skeleton Dance.” It starts with “the foot bone is connected to the leg bone, the leg bone is connected to the knee bone…” It’s really a discussion of systems. The human body wouldn’t function without all the components or subsystems working together. Business and what we do as sellers is a set of interconnected/interdependent subsystems.

Everyone Wants Referrals but Few are Willing to Put in the Work

Adaptive Business Services

I built my selling career on referrals. As a result, my closing ratios were phenomenally high. I created and nurtured relationships with both clients and power partners. I was always a member of a networking, or leads, group. Some of the leads groups that I belonged to were good and others were flat out bad. Regardless, I always made them pay. I showed up at every meeting and I always had leads to share. .

We see quiet quitting, both associated with hours and with a lack of connectedness with the organization.

Where There’s A Process, There’s A Way

Rob Jolles

I credit New York Life for teaching me to love selling; I credit Xerox with teaching me how to sell. One of the most important lessons I learned, in my long association with Xerox, was the value of a process. We were hired because we had a desire to sell, but once we walked through the training center doors, Xerox took care of the rest with terrific curriculum delivered by amazing trainers.

The ROI of Losing: How to Rethink Loss in Sales

The Spiff Blog

For every successful deal, there are multiple lost opportunities that never see the light of day.

In fact, only 6% of opportunities ever convert to a deal ( source ).
