If there’s one universal truth that resonates throughout every single company, it’s that cash is king for your sales team. Inside and outside sales reps are not only paid on commission, hefty bonuses and kickbacks also motivate them to work even harder. I mean, c’mon, you’ve seen all the movies right? Some of the leading salesmen in the US are literally swimming in money.

Hiring Sales Stars . Whether you are starting a new sales force or hiring a new rep to fill a vacancy, the four principles of the STAR Process will help you select top sales performers. As the head of sales it doesn’t matter if you are involved directly in the process, what matters, is that you have in place a top-notch sales selection system. Without a clear process, your sales managers will each adopt their own approach and ultimately achieve sub-optimal results.

My friend, Tibor Shanto , and I were talking this morning. He asked me a fascinating question, “Why don’t managers have a development plan or roadmap for developing the capabilities and performance of their people?” The question caused me to pause and reflect. Very few managers sit down with their people and develop a plan to help them learn, grow, and contribute at higher levels.

Today’s buyers expect more than generic outreach–they want relevant, personalized interactions that address their specific needs. For sales teams managing hundreds or thousands of prospects, however, delivering this level of personalization without automation is nearly impossible. The key is integrating AI in a way that enhances customer engagement rather than making it feel robotic.

Once upon a time, a clever sales rep sent out a nicely crafted email to dozens of prospects. Then, he had to wait without any way of knowing whether the emails were opened, forwarded, or simply thrown in the spam folder. For during those old, dark days, there was no email tracking. Fortunately for us, salespeople are now equipped with advanced email tracking.

The other day, I was speaking with a colleague about the state of sales/selling. We started talking about the irony of change, how our jobs are all about change–yet we, somehow, seem the most resistant to changing how we sell. Sales/selling has little to do with what we sell. It is strictly about change, helping our customers/prospects recognize the need to change, helping them in that change process.

We sales people have adopted a unique vocabulary about what we do and how we work. In some sense, it’s not unusual, every profession has words that help them do their work. When I talk to software developers, I get lost a couple of sentences after they say the word “code… (either the noun or verb).” Likewise, as financial types start talking “debits, credits, etc.” I start getting a little dizzy.
