Sunday, when the Priest was giving his sermon he said they (the Priests) compare mass attendance at the end of each weekend. He said since everyone has returned from their summer vacations, Saturday night mass was full, the two earlier Sunday masses were full and this mass was full. My wife and I looked around and it seemed to us that the church was a bit more than half full.

Ask yourself a question, “Are you taking your people where they want/need to be taken?” Too often, we tend to focus on where we need to go/what we want to accomplish, but we fail in engaging our people as effectively, taking them where they need to be taken. Recently, I’ve had a fascinating experience working with a very high potential CRO.

We now can generate more content than ever before, but should we? What if we knew what buyers wanted and made more of that instead of producing what’s fast and/or easy? Last month, I shared insights from our research highlighting the gap between content marketing and the buyer’s journey. Specifically, roughly 80% of closed sales deals we evaluated couldn’t be connected to marketing content.

We seem to be wired to react and respond. When we encounter a problem, we immediately jump on it doing what we can do to correct it, getting back on course. It seems like a game of business/selling “whack a mole.” A problem pops up here, we put a fix in place, another one appears somewhere else, we fix that, another pops up… We move from problem to problem, “whacking” them, only to have more pop up elsewhere.

One thing I can tell you is sponsors and partners who staff their booths with junior folks that just stare at their phones all day typically don’t see the ROI of their peers that … well … do more. Now if events are a sales function budgeted by marketing, then at first this seems to make sense.
