Many sales managers mistakenly assume that once a rep has been with the team for 90 days, they’re fully equipped to succeed. However, continuous development is key to unlocking their potential and driving overall team performance. Here are three strategies to support your sales reps beyond their initial onboarding: 1️⃣ 100-Day Review: Schedule a comprehensive review after their first 100 days. Focus not just on sales numbers, but also on leading indicators like outreach activity and proposal quality. Use this time to identify performance gaps and create actionable plans for improvement. 2️⃣ Optimize Sales Processes: Regularly assess and refine the sales process. This might involve streamlining outreach or enhancing follow-up strategies. Providing targeted training can equip your team with the skills to navigate these improvements. 3️⃣ Build Personal Brands: Encourage your reps to establish their professional presence online. By sharing insights on platforms like LinkedIn, they can position themselves as thought leaders and attract new business opportunities. Investing in your sales team’s growth is not just beneficial—it’s essential for sustained success. By implementing these strategies, you’ll empower your new sales reps to thrive long after their onboarding journey has ended. #SalesLeadership #Onboarding #ContinuousDevelopment #SalesManagers #Salespeople #SalesPerformance

As a leader, your impact on sales retention is profound! Here are 5 strategies to cultivate a loyal and high-performing sales team: 1. Employee Engagement: Foster a positive workplace where every voice matters. Take time to listen more than talk to your salespeople. Engaged employees are 3x more likely to stay! 2. Clear Expectations & Accountability: Set transparent goals and hold your team accountable. Clarity drives success. 3. Autonomy: Empower your salespeople with the freedom to manage their work. Trust breeds motivation and productivity. Plus, no one likes to work for a micromanager who looks over their shoulder all day. 4. Ongoing Training: Invest in tailored development programs. Equip your team with the skills they need to excel and grow. When they grow, the desire to stay increases. 5. Psychological Safety: Create an environment where ideas can flow freely. Supportive leadership reduces stress and enhances performance. By prioritizing these areas, you’ll build a winning team that not only stays but thrives. #SalesLeadership #SalesRetention #TeamSuccess #SalesTalent

Here's a list of ten things world-class managers do to help sellers build a healthy pipeline and improve sales performance: 1️⃣ Employ a lead generation process. Get prospects to raise their hands and ask for help to enter the top of the sales funnel. 2️⃣ Identify quality prospects considering dollar potential, access to the decision maker, and fit. 3️⃣ Sellers should communicate a solid valid business reason to secure better appointments. 4️⃣ Have sales enablement resources handy. 5️⃣ Listen to customers and prospects to uncover new sales opportunities. 6️⃣ Discuss specific accounts and outline behaviors needed to close business. 7️⃣ Proposals should include a clearly defined problem and a solution to drive ROI. 8️⃣ Regularly review how long accounts stay in the same stage of the sales process and know when to move them out of your pipeline. 9️⃣ Examine conversion rates along the sales process. Dig into the lowest conversion rates and determine why and how your salespeople can improve. 🔟 Make sure each salesperson has a healthy mix of accounts. They should be having conversations with top of the funnel, middle of the funnel, and bottom of the funnel accounts. #SalesPerformance #SalesPipeline #PipelineManagement #SalesStrategy
