Having anything to do with sales was the furthest thing from my mind when I was thinking about a job following college. I’d had a few selling experiences as a kid. In Boy Scouts, there was always an event of some sort that we had to sell tickets for. My Mom usually bought the allocation I was assigned to sell. Sometimes a neighbor would buy them (but I think my Mom had called saying she would pay for them).

Have you ever experienced having to answer the same questions twice during a doctor's appointment? It’s frustrating, but it can also make us reflect on the questions we ask our prospects. Are we asking the right questions to make us think deeper if it were our own business? Even the most experienced salesperson can overlook the importance of being highly prepared for the initial needs analysis.

One lesson of COVID was how fast things change. In an instant, sales organizations saw their operations and teams rendered dramatically less productive. It wasn’t just prolonged downtime. It was an epic cultural shift that upended our processes, people, and priorities. At the same time, organizations struggled to support yesterday’s reps with today’s problems.

Odds are, if you’re a sales enablement leader right now, you’re operating your team much differently than you did less than a year ago. Less (or no) budget. More pressure. Heightened competition. Shorter seller attention spans. Overwhelming stress. At the same time, the quota conundrum continues. According to our 2022-2023 Sales Enablement Outlook Report , almost 40% of sellers achieve below 75% of their quotas.

Do you realise how important it is to send a reminder email to your recipient when you want them to respond, i.e. take action? It’s equally crucial as sending the initial email. However, because a typical business professional receives 96 emails per day, it can be challenging to get a response to your first email. Any business or professional finds it difficult to respond the same day or right away after an outreach.

In many ways, sales discovery calls are the heart of the whole sales process. Much like a first date, a discovery call allows reps and prospects to decide if it makes sense to move the relationship forward. But discovery calls are like dates in another way, too: They’re your reps’ first — and sometimes only — chance to make a great first impression.
