Amy O’Connor . As a sales coach, consultant and trainer, much of what clients pay me for or expect of me is to teach their sales teams sales techniques: how to ask discovery questions, how to close buyers, how to create urgency, etc. The problem is that most of the time the technique is just a small part of the issue. ?Your technique will only ever be as strong as you mindset.

What is PR? Public Relations professionals help a business or individual cultivate a positive reputation with the public through various unpaid or earned communications, including traditional media, social media, and in-person engagements. They also help clients defend their reputation during a crisis that threatens their credibility. There’s an old saying: “Advertising is what you pay for; publicity is what you pray for.”.

But here are 12 common drivers of poor sales performance I see in salespeople that make them worthy of being fired.

But on top of all those amazing resource, there is one more high-impact method of perfecting your closing technique: Teach Yourself. The fact is that too many salespeople struggle in their closing attempts because they are not analyzing and reinventing their own approach.

Many salespeople swear this is one of the best cold call opening lines: “Did I catch you at a bad time?”. At one point, they were right to think so. Here’s the theory behind it: People like to say “no.”. It makes them feel in control. So when you ask “Did I catch you at a bad time,” they want to say “no.”. It opens the door to a successful cold call.

Core performers make up approximately 70 percent of the sales team. Since they’re the majority, your core performers are responsible for the bulk of sales productivity. Even a small boost to their skills will translate into big differences in performance. In fact, some reports suggest improving core performers’ skills by a mere five percent pays off with a 60-percent boost to performance.

Ask any sales rep what the hardest part of their job is, and I’ll bet they’ll say “closing.” After all, signing new customers and upselling existing accounts is how a rep makes quota.

Maximizing sales rep performance is no easy task. 📈 Traditional sales training methods focus heavily on the first few weeks in the sales role. Companies dedicate time, resources, and budget to onboarding new hires, only for them to forget what was learned in those first few weeks, lose motivation, and struggle to come to grips with their role.
