Have you ever been completely put off by the rep on the other end of a sales call? Maybe it was their tone, demeanor, or that they didn’t have their camera on. Maybe they seemed distracted, low energy, or disconnected from the product they were selling. Perhaps it was all these things. The way sales reps show up matters to buyers. And in an increasingly digital and virtual world, it matters more than ever.

It is important for sales leaders to understand that, when pursuing a deal, the contest isn't between their company and their competitor's company. Nor is the contest between their solution and their competition's product or service. Instead, it's a contest between the salespeople trying to win the client's business. A salesperson with greater sales effectiveness will beat a salesperson with a lower level of effectiveness.

Despite dealing with economic and geopolitical curveballs for the past 2+ years, uncertainty in the market shows no signs of slowing down. With heavy talk of inflation and a looming recession (or a recession that’s already started) buyers are anxiously shifting their budgets, headcount, and growth plans, leaving salespeople to hear objections like: now isn’t the right time. my CFO is asking me to put together a “recession plan”. call me back when the storm passes. we’re only moving forward with

Salespeople are a superstitious bunch. There are those who believe Monday isn't a good day to make cold calls, and there are those who believe Friday is the best day to do it. A technology company recorded the outcomes of 40 million calls, and their data revealed something quite simple and, perhaps, expected. The best time to make cold calls is between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM on weekdays.

Negotiate by definition is to deal or bargain with others in preparation of a contract or business deal. As a verb, negotiate means to move through in a satisfactory manner. In the world of selling, both of those definitions are relevant and important. Oftentimes, sales negotiation tactics seem to be related to price – giving or getting the best rate or fees for a product or service.

One of the biggest reasons salespeople fail to create a sense of urgency in the mind of their customers is because they mistakenly focus too heavily on business cases and not nearly enough on their customer’s emotional motivators (i.e. the real reason they buy). As a result, they suffer with low close rates and poor forecast accuracy. Does this narrative sound familiar?

One reason clients may distrust salespeople is that they believe salespeople are hiding some inconvenient truth. Prospective buyers worry about what they don't know and what the salesperson is not saying. Salespeople want to impress clients by accentuating the positives while avoiding the negative; however, there is no difference between not disclosing something the client needs to know and lying.

I’ve been revisiting a lot of selling basics. We take for granted that people, us, understand the basic of selling. What we do, why we do it, who it’s for… The reality is few training programs address these things well, focusing instead on how we do these things. And, over time, we forget these basics, running on autopilot. We just do what we have always done, moving unconsciously through our and our customer’s days.

So there is a lot of triage going on in VC land these days. VCs have to figure out where to put their money, and their time, when the public markets are still down 50% from their peaks and late stage, follow-on capital has almost evaporated. Things are still very good in SaaS. The top Cloud and SaaS leaders are growing faster than ever. But the public markets are brutal, and it’s rippled all through venture capital.

Selling is a craft. It's a performance. It's also a bit of a mystery. Why is it that two salespeople who work for the same manager have different results? Both salespeople sell the same thing, to similar clients, at the same price. If one salesperson complains about an underhanded competitor, another salesperson has little trouble dispatching that same competitor.
