A major factor affecting your conversions is user flow. It’s the path a user follows through your website interface to complete a task (make a reservation, purchase a product, subscribe to something). It’s also called user journey. In order to maximize your conversions, you have to get the user flow right – build one that matches user’s needs.

Yup, I said it. Good closers are bad sales people. The better a “closer” is, as defined by traditional definitions, the shittier the sales person they are. Why? A good “closer” is someone who is unable to bring the client along and close them during each step of the sales cycle and therefore they have to “close” the whole deal in one step.

There is an interesting discussion on Focus on transforming sales organizations from Push to Pull. I can see the reason for the discussion, if I had a nickel for every time I’ve heard a comment about “pushy sales people,” I’d have a huge pile of nickels. It’s also both fashionable and realistic to talk about the customer’s buying process.

Understanding the Sales Force by Dave Kurlan Cold calling. It sounds so.20th Century. Some industries still break-in their salespeople by putting them on the phone and having them dial - more than one hundred times a day - and attempt to schedule appointments. You still receive calls like this from new, and sometimes not so new salespeople selling insurance, investments, copiers, office supplies, commercial real estate and long distance phone services.

Recently I critiqued a number of websites (links at the bottom of the post) and made suggestions for improving their conversion rates. I noticed that the key problems were pretty much the same for most of them. It’s highly likely your website suffers from the exact same problems. Fix these issues and watch your conversion rate improve. Use the following as kind of a conversion improvement checklist.

I used the phrase, “information sale” in a post a while back. I’ve been thinking about that term for quite a while now. It’s really been on my mind. The information sale is the idea that selling happens when the client or prospect is being educated. It’s when the sales person is using information to teach the prospect or customer something they didn’t know.

I’ve been writing a lot about changing the conversation, about challenging our customers, about getting them to think differently. A lot of readers have been sending me notes, asking for advice on how to do this. While I agree with many of the principles outlined in Challenger Selling and Provocative Selling, I take a little different view on things.

Understanding the Sales Force by Dave Kurlan Earlier today we ( Objective Management Group ) held our annual Rockefeller Habits strategy meeting. At one point the management team was reviewing year over year growth to pinpoint where last year's growth came from. The segment of our business that survived the recession was our Sales Force Evaluation. Companies that had money they could part with wanted to work on sales and we own the Sales Force Evaluation market.

Sales managers often encounter cases where a sales rep is in a slump and needs help. One-size-fits all solutions don’t work. Instead, try one of the following field-tested ideas. Reconnect to plan. Review goals and have your team recommit to an action plan you’d set earlier, or create a new one together. Get back to basics. Mastering the fundamentals is an ongoing process and it’s often where you’ll discover gaps in a rep’s knowledge.

There has been a lot of talk on how sales has changed. Sales 2.0 , The Challenger Sale, the cold call is dead, etc have all permeated the sales world narrative over the last year. In spite of the incessant chatter about sales changing, it hasn’t changed. Customers still makes decisions the same way. They still have objections, they still need to compare.

Sales people are notoriously bad at writing things down and documenting things. I talk to thousands a year. When I start talking about documenting something–a deal plan, an account plan, territory, call plans, even a to-do list–all of a sudden you can see the resistance in their faces. . They sit back, fold their arms. Most say nothing, but a few courageous one’s will say, “Dave, you don’t get it.

Understanding the Sales Force by Dave Kurlan Everyone has a plan. Some plans are better than others because they contain all or most of the necessary steps and sequence them in an appropriate order. Most plans have gaps where steps should be and the sequence doesn't lend itself to success. One area where we see this occur repeatedly is when companies are about to hire a Sales VP or Director AND they want to evaluate their sales force too.

I have a new mantra; The best sales people can make the sale. without almost ever having to talk about. their product. When we are talking about our product, we’re NOT talking about the customers business. (There is one exception, I’ll get to that in a minute) When we’re talking about our product we’re focused on our need and not our customers.

Win/Loss Analysis is critical in helping us improve our results. But there are a couple of perspectives in win/loss analysis I think are important in driving performance improvement and improving our ability to win — hopefully ultimately just doing win reviews. There are two different perspectives of wins and losses that I’d like to discuss.

The beginning of the year in sales always starts with a number. Then it moves to getting to the number. Sales leadership spends a lot of time going through plans, setting quota, preparing for Q1, looking at the pipeline, etc. Everyone is looking forward and the management process on making the number begins. What is often missed however, is a good solid understanding of what the team is going to need to make the number.
