Many businesses are struggling right now—especially when it comes to growth. Let's talk about the importance of lead generation and its impact on business growth. The Importance of Lead Generation in Sales. Sure, many of the business struggles as of late are due to the poor economy. But many businesses are having a “lead generation” problem.

For most businesses, the first half of 2020 is a write-off! COVID-19 has hurt the economy, and many companies have suffered. If you want to close the gap you need to act now! Sales leaders I speak with have done a fabulous job keeping their sales teams motivated, helping them transition to virtual selling and whatever else they needed to do to adapt to the new normal.

Recent research shows that only 50% of B2B organizations state that they have good alignment between their marketing and sales teams. This lack of alignment tremendously impacts the ability to meet business goals, and is a limiting factor for building and maintaining customer relationships. While many B2B organizations continue to struggle with aligning their marketing and sales teams, they can take practical steps to unify both teams and simplify their overall approach.

Selling is a series of conversations and commitments. The more effective you are at having the necessary conversations and gaining commitments, the easier it is for you to win big deals. One of the ways you lose control of the conversation is by mishandling the objections your contacts throw at you when you ask them to agree to the conversations and commitments necessary to make a good decision about a new solution and a new partner.

Sales efforts aren't always cut and dry. In many cases, you won't be able to present a product or service at a price that a prospect will be immediately receptive to — especially if that product or service comes with multiple options at different price points. There might have to be some give and take when making a sale — some degree of negotiation to land on a mutually beneficial agreement that suits both you and your customer well.

My view has always been that every person should be in the job-hunting game even though they may be happy in their current position. You never know when your current happy state will change and you find yourself looking for another opportunity. It may be in sales or it may not, it really doesn’t matter. The point is you should always be ‘in the hunt’ and in order to do so, you need a résumé that stands out from the rest of the job-hunting herd.

Summer can be the worst time for sales—sellers aren’t selling, buyers aren’t buying, signatories are often absent. Why? You name it: Summer vacation, kids’ activities, traveling to see grandparents, spending time on the lake, the golf course, etc. . In my 30 years of leading sales teams, I’ve seen it all. Once I had a rep literally “phone in” his forecast for 2 months from a campsite at the base of his favorite climbing sites in Southern Utah.

Last week, we discussed why the sales industry needed a Henry Ford assembly line. We determined that while the technology that we use has changed over time, our sales structure’s foundation has not. Before Ford's assembly line, auto manufacturers built cars one-at-a-time. They hired a skilled artisan who would build the vehicle from the ground up, which meant that Ford had to hire people who knew every aspect of the vehicle.

Considering their increasing prevalence and tremendous utility, B2B inside sales are certainly worth understanding and exploring.

In short, it means that you need to be fully aware of your sales process, study it carefully and make sure that even after you vigorously prune your existing pipeline and remove expected transactions that will either fall by the wayside or be delayed, you’ll still have enough genuine prospects to attain your sales goals this year.

You know how some things just kind of feel true? Like the idea that if you’re nice to people, they’ll most likely be nice to you back. Or that good deeds will be rewarded. There’s an idea like that in sales. It goes something like this: “If I provide excellent service and support to my existing customers, they’ll order more from me and I’ll be able to grow the account organically, without applying pressure that might upset the apple cart.” This feels true.

The critical boss is known for chastising teammates, calling people and ideas stupid, and focusing on mistakes. Teammates of the critical boss are scared to suggest ideas and bring up issues and are anxious about work. Your second choice is the compassionate boss.
