In sales, customer objections are a fact of life. But running into the same objections time and time again can make selling feel more like Groundhog Day, especially when you know they’re coming! Maybe you have one of the more expensive solutions on the market and have to routinely defend your pricing. Perhaps you work for a boutique firm or startup and constantly deal with questions about your size, youth, or perceived lack of experience.

If you’re a leader in a high-growth tech sector, you’ve probably heard the phrase “unicorn company.” It’s the dream of any tech startup – to reach a valuation of $1 billion without an IPO.

For four straight years, Salesforce has found that over 75% of buyers want sellers to always act as a trusted advisor. On top of that, they want sellers to meet them “wherever” they are. That’s a lot of pressure to add on top of economic uncertainty and rising quota. How can a salesperson meet all of these standards while also enjoying what they do?

If you’re not doing it right, it can not only be a colossal waste of time but can also damage your personal and corporate brand.

Many salespeople waste too much time on prospects with little to no chance of converting. Meanwhile, the good prospects they should’ve focused on have already gone cold. This is why sales qualification is so important — it helps you identify and prioritize prospects more likely to become buyers. How do you know if a potential customer is a good fit for your solution?

The sales management activities that we are performing today are creating the results we are achieving today. Many or few, consistent or irregular, planned or impromptu, the behaviors and activities that we, as sales managers, use to motivate, train and hold our relationship managers accountable are at least partly responsible for the success of those we manage.

There is nothing worse than having to mark an opportunity record in your CRM as "closed lost." The second-worst prompt is "closed lost reason." The field in your CRM may have a drop-down menu, so you can easily document the reason you lost the deal. It stings a little to acknowledge that another salesperson won the client's business. It is proof your competitor did something different, something that gave them an edge in creating a preference.

A first meeting is not automatically an opportunity. You need more evidence before you can consider a first meeting to offer more potential. A confirmed second meeting is a positive factor worth considering, but what is often greater proof you have a real opportunity is the presence of a sales champion. A sales champion is a contact who will advocate for you.

The Irish data privacy board has imposed a fine of 390 million Euros ($414 million) on Meta over advertising practices that are illegal under European Union law. Because Meta’s European operations are based in Dublin, the Ireland board is the company’s EU regulator.

Salesforce is ceding the startup CRM market to HubSpot. Does it matter? Maybe not. Salesforce is focused on $100m+ deals, and SFA/CRM is a minority of their revenue. Perhaps they’ll still get them when they cross $50m, $100m ARR. But maybe someday, they … won’t anymore. — Jason Be Kind Lemkin (@jasonlk) December 30, 2022.
