Every year, thousands of companies spend millions of dollars on sales kickoff (SKO) events and concentrate on talking at the group rather than activating the growth plan. If you're reading this, you're likely one of them. SKO is a monumental event that can ignite the motivation of commercial teams and drive organizations to reach new heights. It can also spin the organization into a place of confusion that takes months to recover.

Setting meaningful as well as realistic goals is a skill that all sales leaders know is crucial. When looking at sales goals, let’s clarify that they need to be both meaningful, with a focus on hard, not vanity, metrics.

My MacBook Pro is running Monterey version 12.6 and it has been charging to only 80%. This was driving me crazy so I did some digging and found that the default battery setting is "Optimized" where it says the following: "To reduce battery aging, your Mac learns from your daily charging routine so it can wait to finish charging past 80% until you need to use it on battery.".

Watch any movie centered on sales professionals, and you’re likely to notice a recurring theme: competition. The sales reps in these films will stop at nothing to become the lone name atop a literal or figurative sales leaderboard – usually resorting to extreme tactics in order to be the best. Of course, the degree of cutthroat competition in these films is sensationalized to give their stories higher stakes – like in the ‘90s classic Glengarry Glen Ross, which features a real estate firm where

For people who build products, real user feedback is simply invaluable. It’s the only way to learn about the challenges your customers face, and find out what kind of features they need from you. But along with that practical insight, you also get great stories — concrete examples of how your work makes a difference in people’s lives, from the first time they check the email over their morning coffee to the moment they close their laptops at the end of the day.

Everyday I read articles about how to conduct sales conversations. They get into topics like, “do you start with ‘How are you…,'” They extend into the exact sentence structure, use these words, don’t use these, counter with this, use these pattern interrupts, here are the sequences. There is discussion about authenticity, which often seems to be faux authenticity; sometimes accompanied by recommendations on mirroring, facial expressions, and so forth.

The world of selling has irrevocably changed. Buyers no longer want to be sold to and especially not as a result of a cold call. They want to get to know a company by getting to know and trust the people who work there. Starting digital conversations is the first step to build this trust. As CEO, it’s imperative that you lead by example. In this episode Alice talks with Tim Hughes who explains how to change your sales approach from “interrupting to pitch” to “gaining trust”.
Speaker: Ardath Albee, B2B Marketing Strategist and CEO of Marketing Interactions
Most buyers today spend approximately two-thirds of their journey digitally and anonymously before contacting vendors directly. Intent data can help B2B marketers reach active buyers earlier, influence their journey, and close more deals. However, not all intent data is created equal. Perceiving interest as intent will lead you down a rabbit hole with no program performance.

I will often hear sales managers confess that their most tenured, and sometimes best traditional sellers, struggle when it comes to selling more or higher value digital solutions. As consumers spend more time with digital media and digital marketing budgets increase, it is no longer viable to have your best sellers not participating or fully participating when it comes to digital sales.
