The Gist: Salespeople are being taught to fear cold calling by people who should know better. Much of the advice they offer validates and even spreads a fear of sales interactions. There is never a reason to fear calling a stranger, especially since every won deal starts by meeting a stranger. Without meaning to, my friend Jeb Blount created quite a clamor on LinkedIn.

By Tibor Shanto. A week or so back, I posted about the “ summer lull ,” suggesting it could be more myth than fact. Some enterprising salespeople asked what they should do during this period? Well, it is a great time to do all those things you tell me you want to do but never have time for. Every time I suggest salespeople practice the basics, they tell me they have not time, well now is the time, summer.

The Gist: Too many salespeople still believe that consultative selling means asking the client about their pain. Approaches that don’t provide advice and recommendations aren’t valuable enough to call consultative. While questions and diagnoses are significant, they are only consultative in the hands of someone who can offer counsel, advice, and recommendations.

The Gist: Some leaders struggle with how to deal with poor performers, especially those with a bad attitude. These leaders have three options—retrain, reassign, or replace the employee, preferably in that order. When a poor performer makes no effort to change, it’s better to make a decision quickly than to allow the problems to persist. One of the ways we get staffing wrong is by hiring fast and firing slow.
