      We’ve all done it.  Promoted a good salesperson, often our best, to sales manager.  My files are full of cases where the results were below expectations for everyone involved.  Principals and CSOs are often disappointed in the lack of results, and the sales managers are confused and frustrated with the lack of achievement of their teams.

        “I have great relationships with my customers.”  That is one of the most debilitating myths around -- one that cripples the performance of the average corporate salesperson.  Yet, it is endemic within the population of salespeople.  I am not sure that there is a salesperson anywhere who doesn’t, to some extent, believe it.  Let’s look a little deeper at the belief and its consequences.

        A question from a sales manager:  "Here’s an issue that I confront with my salespeople all of the time.  They are afraid to press for the next step, because they don’t want to experience the rejection of hearing a “NO.”  So, they try to keep the sale alive by not asking for resolution.  This keeps them involved with customers who aren’t interested and prevents them from moving on.  Any thoughts?" Read my response.

Review my answer to this question:  Here’s a question about best practices for B2B sales and sales leadership that I struggle with almost daily.  I’m definitely known for having very high expectations that aren’t so easy to meet.  I wondered if you could elaborate on what strategies you have seen succeed regarding this, because while I’m sure open to changing my attitude, I’m not thrilled with lowering my expectations.  I’m overly driven...and not far from driven crazy!
