Ready to analyse the first 90 days of 2025 from a sales perspective? In this episode we're not about pointing fingers or dwelling on what could have been done differently. Instead, it's about helping you make objective, data-driven decisions to set a successful course for the rest of the year. We're having an in-depth discussion on ninety-day analysis—what it is, why it's effective, and how it can provide critical early insights into your sales trajectory. Jess shares her excitement about recent events and highlights the positive impact that in-person interactions have on strategy and support, specifically praising her boardroom event and the Converting Corporates session. She talks passionately about how being in a room filled with like-minded entrepreneurs and business professionals, sharing common goals and energies, can significantly boost your motivation and clarity. These events showcase the power of collaboration and community in driving individual success. Transitioning into the core content, Jess emphasizes the importance of using data to assess your current path realistically. With a mix of humor and practicality, she introduces the key troubleshooting questions you need to ask: How many leads have you engaged in a lead generation cycle this quarter? How many qualified sales calls have occurred? What is the number of qualified proposals you've sent out? How many sales have you successfully closed? What's your average transaction value? These critical questions are designed to provide a clear picture of your sales funnel's effectiveness and highlight areas needing refinement. Jess explains that these metrics can pinpoint where your sales process might be faltering, whether it's the lead generation stage, conversion to calls, or closing deals. Moreover, Jess shares insights into what separates the most successful salespeople, stressing the importance of focusing on the right activities. Successful individuals in sales don't chase after trends or engage in comparison with others; instead, they maintain unwavering focus on their strategies and execution. Jess believes that implementing a proven strategy with full accountability, alongside honing specific skills, is pivotal for consistent success. We're also looking at the collective anxiety about trying new things or fear of failure, which is a barrier for many. Jess reassures listeners by encouraging a mindset shift—from fearing negative outcomes to leveraging data-driven decisions to fuel confident actions. Toward the episode's end, Jess urges listeners to evaluate their own sales processes—do you have a strategic approach, are they implementing effectively, and is there accountability from knowledgeable peers? If any of these elements are missing, it might be time to seek out support structures that can provide these missing pieces. In the spirit of continuous improvement, Jess invites the audience to send their sales numbers for an analysis if they are unsure about where their process might be falling short. This gesture not only offers practical help but also reinforces the community aspect she champions throughout the episode. Whether you're already seeing success or searching for ways to improve your Q2 performance, this episode serves as a comprehensive guide to refining your sales strategies for sustained success. Tune in to transform how you approach your sales activities and enjoy a fuller, more rewarding path to your business goals.

If you're stuck in a reactive sales cycle, feeling overwhelmed every new month with zero sales on the board, then this episode is perfect for you!  Discover the secrets of the 'thirty day sales mindset' - and learn how to set the right sales foundation for growth. Whether you're struggling with lead generation, sales call conversions, or are finding that your content isn't bringing the results you need, Jess breaks down the necessary steps to troubleshoot your sales process and prioritise revenue-generating activities. So, if you are one of those people who have just realised that you are IN the year but haven't managed to take full action yet? Then now is the time to get your outreach done before you get left behind. You can grab my proven Cold Outreach Course by heading to: https://smartleaderssell.thrivecart.com/cold-email-outreach-conversion-course/ and say goodbye to revenue roller coasters and hello to predictable sales results!     In this episode I'm sharing; 1. What is a real 30 day sales mindset? This is actually designed to be 30 days of sales focus where trained salespeople set the right sales foundations for moving into new markets/ setting themselves up for success.   2. What is it in the entrepreneur world? Unfortunately, it's the focus that most people have because they start at 0 sales every month. So instead of actually taking a step back to set the right foundations / give themselves time to really learn, set the sales stage and do... they just bounce reactively from month - month revenue and never progress their results.   3. What's the impact? Less growth in your sales (year on year) reactive/ rollercoaster revenue, high pressure delivery months + overwhelm, selling at discounted rates to just get sales through the door, no pipeline development/ lead generation so stalls your sales later down the line even if you're not seeing it now. Basically when used without a strategy like my cash injection for corporate strategy, it's just a dangerous hand - mouth way of running your business as a coach/ consultant/ speaker / trainer/ DFY and ends up with burnt out service providers who struggle to sell.   4. What to do instead? If you're already seeing this impacting your business OR recognise the signs? You need to do something now. You can absolutely set good foundations in place if you know how to manage setting foundations and balance that with critical sales activities. If you don't? You need to get the cold outreach course now and start putting that outreach plan in place OR message me to find out where your gaps are and start fixing them properly. Remember, in a changing market + challenging economy, the worst thing you can do is ignore early signs... it'll cost you more later.   Key Quotes; The Pitfalls of the Thirty Day Sales Mindset: "I'm seeing more people than ever being super burnt out and overwhelmed because they're bouncing reactively month to month." 00:23:3400:23:41 "Reassess and Refocus for Real Revenue: This is a perfect time at the end of your first ninety days of 2025 to be reassessing what your actual sales numbers are and what your real revenue generating activity has been like." 00:03:5200:04:07   "The Key to Consistent Revenue": "Putting those foundational pieces in place, having that laser focus sales mindset and actually doing the right things, troubleshooting your sales process and fixing the right gaps, it's going to make you way more money, way more quickly than doing something fancy." 00:53:3800:53:55 The Revenue Roller Coaster: "And all of this combined means that from a revenue perspective, we end up on this reactive roller coaster feast and famine revenue cycle, where we bounce around from doing lots and lots and lots of short term sales activities that are designed to generate short term revenue." 00:32:4700:33:04 Listen in for exclusive tips, actionable insights, and a special offer on the Cold Outreach Conversion Course to help you reach your sales goals with confidence and clarity.  Head to The Cold Email Outreach Conversion Course using the coupon code PODCAST.

Labor Day Sales PerformanceMixed results for furniture retailers during the 2024 Labor Day sales.Tyson Furniture (NC) saw a 20% sales boost through early promotions.Gardner-White Furniture (MI) experienced strong activity across all major categories.Key markets driven by housing development and relocations contributed to positive sales outcomes, emphasizing the importance of holiday promotions for the industry.Economic Challenges Facing the Furniture IndustryOngoing inflation, supply chain disruptions, and geopolitical tensions continue to impact the furniture sector.Rising raw material costs (lumber, metal) and tariffs on Chinese imports have forced companies to adjust supply chains and pricing.Inflation is deterring big-ticket purchases like furniture, while higher interest rates are slowing down home renovations and large purchases.Housing Market and E-commerce TrendsCooling housing market due to high mortgage rates is affecting furniture sales.Excess inventory has led to steep discounts, compressing profit margins.Challenges in logistics and supply chains continue, especially in e-commerce, with high shipping costs and longer delivery times.Potential rebound expected as interest rates drop and new home construction picks up.Declining Ocean Container RatesSpot rates for ocean containers dropped another 8%, now at $4,775 per 40-foot container.Rates remain significantly higher than pre-pandemic levels, and a potential port strike on the East Coast may disrupt the downward trend.Bed Bath & Beyond's Strategic ComebackBed Bath & Beyond to return in 2025 through financial partnerships with existing retail chains, avoiding the need for traditional store openings.Plans to introduce Overstock.com into physical retail spaces, signaling a shift in the company's retail strategy.Hooker Furniture's Q2 PerformanceReported a 2.8% sales decline, with cost-cutting measures including 44 layoffs.Home Meridian division showed improvement with a 5.6% increase in net sales, particularly in the hospitality segment.Strategic cost-saving initiatives are aimed at reducing $10 million in fixed costs by year-end.Big Lots to Be Delisted from NYSEVoluntary Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing leads to Big Lots' delisting from the NYSE.Shares were trading below 50 cents before suspension, and the company opted not to contest the delisting decision.Ongoing court-supervised auction process will impact vendors, creditors, and the broader market.Conclusion:While the furniture industry continues to face economic headwinds, companies are finding ways to adapt. From strategic partnerships to cost-cutting initiatives, the outlook remains cautiously optimistic, with potential for recovery as market conditions stabilize.

Potential port strikes on the East and Gulf Coasts could further disrupt the stability of these rates.High Inventory Levels in Retail:Brick-and-mortar retailers face challenges with high inventory levels, contrasting with the just-in-time delivery systems of e-commerce businesses.

Furniture Industry News - August 26, 2024Key Trends in Mobile Shopping:Mobile Usage Dominates: A recent Bizrate Insights survey shows that 70% of consumers spend up to five hours weekly on mobile shopping or product research, with 30% spending over six hours. This trend is particularly strong among consumers aged 30-39, where over half of the purchases are made via mobile devices.Cross-Generational Appeal: Older demographics (ages 40-64 and 65+) are also heavily using mobile phones for tasks like checking store hours, indicating mobile commerce's widespread adoption.Impact on Retail Strategy: The growing reliance on mobile shopping necessitates that furniture retailers optimize mobile experiences to stay competitive.Growth in the Domestic Bedding Industry:Anti-Dumping Measures: The domestic bedding industry has seen a boost due to anti-dumping petitions against mattress imports from countries like Mexico, Italy, and the Philippines. This has led to increased domestic production, with international manufacturers relocating operations to the U.S.Challenges Persist: Despite reduced imports, the industry faces challenges like high inventory levels and low demand, influenced by economic factors such as high interest rates.Outlook: Companies are investing in expanding domestic manufacturing, with hopes for a market recovery by late 2024 or early 2025.Labor Day Sales: A Crucial Indicator:Industry Optimism: Labor Day sales are seen as a pivotal moment for the furniture industry, which has struggled with sluggish traffic throughout the year. A strong performance could signal a turnaround for late 2024.Economic Influences: Potential reductions in interest rates and a shift in discretionary spending from travel to home furnishings could boost sales.Price Sensitivity: Consumers are increasingly trading down to lower price points, pressuring margins but opening opportunities in mid-market segments.Rising Demand for American-Made Furniture:Consumer Preference: There is a growing trend towards American-made furniture, driven by factors like supply chain reliability, quality, and sustainability.Retailer Response: Retailers like Gallery Furniture and City Furniture are capitalizing on this trend by promoting the benefits of domestically produced goods, such as durability and environmental impact.Competitive Pricing: The narrowing price gap between domestic and imported furniture, due to rising import costs, is making American-made products more attractive to consumers.Coast to Coast Accents in Receivership:Financial Struggles: Coast to Coast Accents, a furniture importer, has entered receivership following defaults on credit agreements, leading to severe cash shortages and operational difficulties.Future Uncertainty: The appointed receiver will manage and possibly liquidate the company's assets, casting doubt on its future in the market.IKEA's Foray into the Secondhand Market:Buyback & Resell Program: IKEA's North Carolina store has introduced a dedicated space for preowned items, reflecting the growing trend towards sustainable and budget-conscious shopping.IKEA Preowned: The company is launching an online peer-to-peer marketplace, starting in test markets like Madrid and Oslo, with plans for global expansion. This initiative aligns with IKEA's commitment to sustainability and affordability.Conclusion: This week's developments highlight key shifts in the furniture industry, from the rise of mobile commerce and American-made furniture to significant challenges faced by importers and the growing secondhand market. The upcoming Labor Day sales will be crucial in determining the industry's trajectory as it heads into the final quarter of the year.
