According to the President, Vice-President, Scientists and some Governors, the economy will begin reopening in stages, perhaps as soon as May 1.

There’s a certain feeling of helplessness we each feel as we look at the current global health crisis, things happening in our companies, in our communities, even with our families. We are all facing things few of us, individually or organizationally, have ever faced. We each are struggling to find answers and to make sense of what’s happening.

Q: What sales tactics that are taught to new salespeople bother you enough that you refuse to use them? A few that I think really do you a disservice in SaaS, especially before you have a huge brand: “Be careful of prospects that waste your time.” Yes, your time is precious in sales. But this is backwards. Almost no one wants to waste a salesperson’s time.

The cancellation of industry events from the COVID-19 crisis poses a real problem to salespeople who rely on events-based marketing. Conferences and workshops are obviously being canceled, and the associated costs are significant. In the tech sector alone, the direct losses from the cancellation of just 10 events are more than $1.1 billion. Many companies are canceling events or postponing them until after the crisis is over.

Times are tough for many of us now. What do you do, if half your customers have just gone out of business? If your growth has gone from 60% to 0% overnight? Well you can’t fix everything. And maybe — you can’t even grow your ARR. Some of you won’t be able to grow revenue at all for now. But that doesn’t mean you can’t still grow.

Gartner recently did a survey of 317 CFOs and finance professionals, and found the vast majority plan to permanently shift to more remote work going forward. This doesn’t mean letting their loffice eases expire. It does mean cramming more folks into the same or even less space. The one exception seems to be sales teams. Only 8% of sales leadership planned to make related changes here.

Online shopping makes it easier for consumers to shop more often, and throughout the day. According to research from the IBM Institute for Business Value and the National Retail Federation , 71% of consumers shop in “micromoments”—whenever the impulse strikes—and often while they are doing something else, such as taking a break from a work project, eating lunch or even running on a treadmill.

Sales managers normally face a trifecta of shifting demands from buyers, their direct reports and their organization. The uncertainty of a crisis only heightens the challenge of balancing these demands. During this crisis, sales managers play an even more critical role than usual in your organization’s strategy: because they typically oversee 8 to 10 sellers , sales managers exert tremendous influence over whether your organization’s approach to the crisis succeeds or fails.
