The robots are taking over. They’re going to be better than us, and then steal our jobs, and eventually turn on us and conquer the world. That’s the kind of hyperbolic language you’re probably hearing everywhere today. But some of it is true. Will the skills you’re learning today be obsolete by tomorrow?

As salespeople, we must learn to embrace buyer objections and recognize the benefits of confidently dealing with them.

By Jeff Shore. Congratulations. You’ve begun your journey into the wonderful, scary, thrilling, ill-defined, mysterious world of sales.

How satisfied are you with the rollout and adoption of your CRM system? When we ask sales leaders this question, answers often range from “not very” to “not at all.” In our 2018 Sales Operations Optimization Study conducted by CSO Insights, only 47 percent of respondents reported adoption rates of greater than 90 percent. While you might be satisfied if you’ve come anywhere close to that level of adoption, our research and experience in the field suggests that 90 percent adoption is the minimum

But I've seen enough badly designed pricing pages to know that some businesses simply don't know how to sell their offer. They either get confused on how much to charge, especially if they offer services, or don't know how to demonstrate value on the price page.
