Why Field Sales is still number one for earning and growth! Did you know that more than 50% of college graduates will start their career in sales? While graduates with business majors have even higher sales placements post graduation, the aforementioned covers all majors. Sales is truly one of the best jobs for recent graduates. While they come with an unusually bad reputation, sales jobs are vital for young professionals who want to develop valuable skills that are not exclusive to business.

Let's assume anything you sell might fall into one of four categories. The first category is "Acceptable." The second category is "Standard." The third category is "Good." The fourth and final category is "Exceptional." Every move up this continuum requires a greater investment from your company, as it is the only way to deliver the better results your clients need.

I’m fascinated by studying lazy sales people! Let me qualify that a little, I’m fascinated by studying lazy sales people that consistently achieve their goals. There seems to be a “macho” mentality in too many sales people/leaders. They express pride in how many calls they make, how many dials, how many emails, how much social selling engagement, how they are leveraging the tools.

Activity gets a bad rap. Just suggesting that more activity might be necessary to improve results makes sales leaders and sales managers nervous. They don't want to ask their sales force to make more calls (yes, calls) and schedule more meetings with prospects whose outcomes you sincerely want to improve.

Dear SaaStr: When Is It Too Early to Hire a CRO or a COO? I used to think CROs and COOs were made up titles until “Late Stage” or so, and in startups, a bit of a sign of weakness. Signs a weak CEO was giving away a fancy title to someone that wasn’t really willing to do the work. I used to think there’s no way a SaaS startup needed a “CRO” or “COO” (or even “CMO”) or other C-level Officers Without a Clear, Single Functional Area to Own Until $40m-50m+ in ARR.

The greatest leaders are the ones who never let their team rest on their success, or wallow in defeat. At the end of the quarter, avoid screaming at the scoreboard. The final score only gives you the end result. It doesn’t tell you the whole story. It’s your responsibility as a sales leader to help your team uncover and address execution challenges.

My six email boxes fill up every week, the result of a technology with no barrier to prevent anyone and everyone from sending you a message. Every message is a task someone thinks I must complete, and as fast as I might delete an email, another one files in behind it, making it a never-ending game of whack-a-mole, without the coveted tickets you can turn in for carnival prizes.

Sales forecasting isn’t revolutionary — it’s been around since the dawn of time. But the issue: It’s not always real. Forecasting relies on opinions … subjective percentages tied to “what we think” will happen.

We rarely analyze how performance in sales leadership intersects with individual salespeople’s results. Instead, it's assumed that any group of salespeople will produce results that end in a Gaussian distribution (a Bell Curve), with a top 20% on the right, 60% of results in the middle, and the last 20% on the left, at the bottom of the curve.

Large companies with a purchasing function and professional buyers treat the buying process as something transactional. In doing so, they assume their potential "suppliers" are all similar and equally capable of providing them the goods or services they need.
