FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS

Have two one-on-ones in a week. One that talks deals and one focused on your rep as a person. Investing in a person always pays off with better deals.

Practice breathwork at the beginning of your team meetings. It will help your team feel relaxed and engaged.

Have one rep teach one mini skill builder for 5-10 minutes at the end of your team meetings.

If one of those mini skill builders hits well, have a longer session around it. Use the mini skill builders training to test for things your team wants to be trained on. That’s how you build a powerful training program.

FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS

Do a bi-weekly "pipe squeeze" (pipeline review) with each rep share your screen and take notes as you go to save time & maintain control

Discounts drive velocity, when a deal has stalled or there is no next step, use a manager email to see if a pricing incentive will move the close date

Ask the same 5 questions in deal review - Deal size, deal close date, buyer buy in, next step, and any incentives on the deal. Send the update to your leader for upward transparency

Only have reps forecast deals in pipeline for the month then run the historical math to see what may change both positive or negative

How To Move Indecisive Customers With The JOLT Effect

FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS

Shadowing to remind yourself and your reps of the basics to spot opportunity areas

Setting a goal without a "how" is not a real goal, you have to understand how a rep is going to reach the goal while setting them

Always level with reps before you shadow a call to clarify the role they want you to play on the call & tell them what you hope

Use "Mr.Potato Head" personalization to ramp reps from generic persona based personalizaiton, to trigger based personalization, to full email personalization
