Nearly everyone has moved to digital selling for the last year or so. Even though things are opening, there will continue to be a digital component or hybrid model in play. Plus, organizations are enjoying the cost-savings from doing virtual meetings. Julie Hansen points out that Gartner predicts that by 2025, 80% of B2B sales will take place virtually.  Organizations need to have a strategy in place to handle the continued transition. How can they improve it? According to Julie, organizations need to focus on making a human connection through technology. How can you connect with people on the other side of the screen? Julie shares her thoughts in this episode of Sales Reinvented!  Outline of This Episode [1:04] The difference between digital and social selling [1:38] Why is digital selling so important? [3:50] Julie's digital selling strategy [7:29] Attributes + characteristics of a great digital salesperson [9:13] Tools + techniques + strategies [11:25] Top 3 dos and top 3 don'ts [13:53] Julie's favorite digital selling story Improve digital selling by forming connections Most companies have enough technology and tools in place to be successful with digital selling. However, a successful strategy begins with taking the tools you have and learning how to connect with someone through a camera. You have to learn to understand what the customer is feeling or seeing on the other side of the screen. It's an art and a science. You can't do the same things you'd do in person and expect it to translate through video. It's why people don't feel seen or heard. How do you create an in-person experience in a virtual world? It's not all about technology.  Julie believes that you have to learn how to make eye contact and read on-screen body language. If you can't do that, you'll make wrong assumptions, miscommunicate, and misinterpret what's being said. You have to engage someone with a small amount of real estate. You need to understand how your customer is experiencing the interaction. Until you do that, you aren't creating that in-person experience. It can be as simple as looking at the camera when they're speaking to you instead of watching the image of them. You have to adapt. Attributes + characteristics of a great digital salesperson Julie notes that you need all the same characteristics selling digitally as you do in person—credibility, an interest in others, empathy, curiosity, and trustworthiness. But she emphasizes that those that are successful in the digital world are those that are adaptable. You can't just “ride it out,” you have to adapt and change from what you've done before. If you don't, you'll struggle.  The salespeople that recognize they want to have a deeper connection with their customers and make the virtual experience fulfilling and meaningful are those that will succeed. empathy, curiosity, and other traits won't show up in a video if you don't know how to use them properly. Someone won't feel empathy if you aren't making eye contact. They won't feel cared about if your face is a blank slate. You may feel all of those things but must communicate them. Julie shares, “It doesn't exist if the camera doesn't see it.”  Tools + techniques + strategies Julie sees that people tend to be very passive virtually. People show up like they're sitting in front of a screen. They're in receiving mode and settled into a blank “resting business face.” If you're not aware that it's typical on-screen behavior, you may panic. One strategy is to learn how to recognize on-screen behavior and how to interact and break through the passive cycle. Julie shares a few dos and don'ts that can help you do that: Do look at the camera as much as possible. It should be about 80% of the time in person and especially digitally.  Look at a camera when you're asking a question. The person on the receiving end will feel like you're talking to them. Use gestures if it comes naturally. If you don't do what comes naturally, it will destroy your energy. Don't turn your camera off just because your customer doesn't have their camera on. It's not a great excuse. They'll benefit from seeing you. Don't jump from call to call. You have to stop and regain your energy. The camera reads energy and sales itself is the transfer of energy.  Don't forget about your face. You need to know what it's saying. You think you look happy but your face isn't communicating it. Use your face to communicate emotions and give context and meaning to what you're saying.  It's about connecting with your audience Julie had a coaching call with a salesperson. The business development rep was sent to her because he couldn't convert calls to demos. She watched some of his recordings and pointed out two things that were impacting his presentations: He wasn't making eye contact. He didn't seem engaged and looked down when he asked questions. When the customer's opened up and shared, his face seemed blank; devoid of concern or empathy.  They worked through sharing how you feel with your face and making eye contact. The next month, he converted 20% of his calls to demos. It was all about the connection with his audience. At the end of the day, it is your connection with the buyer that makes a sale, not the tools or technology.  Resources & People Mentioned Selling On-Video Master Class Connect with Julie Hansen Connect on LinkedIn Follow on Twitter Connect With Paul Watts  LinkedIn Twitter  Subscribe to SALES REINVENTED Audio Production and Show notes by PODCAST FAST TRACK https://www.podcastfasttrack.com

When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, the whole notion of going into a government office to interact with an agency came to a stand-still, forcing agency leaders to establish alternative solutions to quickly deliver services to constituents. Fortunately, the availability of open source solutions and a global community of developers have helped IT leaders implement fast and agile cloud solutions. Implementing these solutions has been helped along by the 21st Century Integrated Digital Experience Act (IDEA Act), which laid the foundation for federal agencies to deliver the kinds of web and customer service experiences that consumers typically expect when they are interacting with the private sector, says Peter Durand.

I just decided that as a follow-up to last week's episode, Love in the Time of Coronavirus where I talked about some strategies for helping you take care of yourself, helping you take care of your relationship and if you're single, helping you date safely. During the present moment - I wanted to follow up with a few quick tips for you to help you create intimate space no matter what your situation is. So if you are cooped up with your partner day in day out, because you're on lockdown, and on a strict social distancing regimen with everyone, except your immediate family or if you are dating and communicating digitally through apps and texting, and video chat, I wanted to give you a few hints to help you actually create intimacy no matter which of those settings you're dealing with, so that you can best get that sense of being connected with other people.

This isn't something that I do very frequently, but there's so much going on right now that I wanted to make myself available, so I'm offering it on a sliding scale, and I'll be sending out another reminder soon, so just hop on my list and you can get more information about that. If you need a little extra support, right now, I totally get it. Hey, I need a little extra support right now and I have been reaching out to the people that I count on: a therapist, close friends to get that little extra bit of support when I need it, 'cause none of us should be alone. So, if there isn't anyone in your life that you can count on, then consider signing up for a session 'cause I would love to be there to help support you. Okay, all right, let's dive in. I'm just like, I have this image of just running for the water and taking a big dive in and that would feel really good right now, except I live in Maine, and it is cold and while I have some friends that I've seen jumping in the ocean on Facebook - I guess that is theoretically good for your immune system to take the cold plunge - I'm not gonna do that right now. No, in fact I'm still recovering from the cold that I got a little over a week ago, which you may have heard me talk about briefly on the last episode of the show. So far, so good, everything seems okay. Of course, I cannot get tested because they're just aren't enough tests and thankfully, what I'm experiencing isn't severe enough to warrant a test, the way that they are doling them out right now, so I'm doing all right. I'm getting rest, drinking lots of water and I'm gonna be okay, and hopefully we all band together and we'll all get through this. Even though it's kind of a weird challenging time, let's just be honest. It is unlike anything any of us has ever probably dealt with before. So that's just the reality, and I think that's why this felt so important to give you a few extra hints because we're all in the soup right now, and so it's super important to have as many little tricks as you can to stay connected and to be able to experience intimacy even if you have to keep your distance. So the first thing that I wanted to talk about has to do with if you are in fact spending a lot of time cooped up with your partner, so you're in our relationship or this could be true even if it's not a love relationship, maybe it's your roommates or if you live with your family. There are a couple of possibilities, one is that it's so easy to be around each other all the time and still kind of be missing each other - to not really have those moments where you feel like you're really dropping in and connecting. And on the flip side, maybe you're so busy that you're not taking the time to truly connect or maybe you're in each other's business all the time, but not in ways that are particularly connecting. So here's the hint for those kinds of situations. The hint is to make a date with each other, to actually put time on the calendar and you might wanna do this on a daily basis to have a little check-in if that feels appropriate, or every other day, you gotta go with whatever feels right for you, but I invite you to designate a specific time where you will come together and just check in with a "Hey! How are you doing?" And to give each other permission to be however you are. Maybe amidst all of this, you're doing totally fine. And if that's true, that's great. Relish that, that things are going a little crazy in the world, and I'm actually doing okay and having that strength or resilience that comes in handy when times get tough. So the goal here is to celebrate whatever is, and if it's not something that you feel like celebrating exactly - like for instance, if you're NOT doing so great, well, take the word with a grain of salt, you don't have to "celebrate" it, but you can honor it - honor the challenge, honor the fear, honor the sadness or the heart break, honor the rage, and the anger, or honor the okay-ness - honor those moments of exhilaration where you feel like... "Wow, this... Maybe this is all we got, so let's enjoy it." I know yesterday I went out on a couple of really long walks in the sunshine. It's not sunny today, but it was yesterday, and I actually had moments of joy where I felt like I was just seeing the world so clearly, noticing the people around me and saying, "hello" from a safe distance of six feet and just appreciating life, so that those were really good moments for me. And then I've had moments where I've been scared, I'm scared of what might happen to people that I care about, moreso that than myself, but honestly, I wanna keep living. You know, I wanna get through this in one piece. So, yeah you gotta just deal with what is and check in with each other. If you're solo or single at this time, make an appointment to check in with yourself, maybe a couple of times during the day to just kind of step back from social media, from the news, from whatever it is you're doing and just check in with your body with your own state of being. This is something that I talked about in the last episode. Make it intentional though. And that way, if you're feeling, on the other side of those things, you were feeling like you're kind of obsessive about how you're feeling, then that's another advantage of setting a time. You have that dedicated time to check-in about your feelings, and then you can get on with your day. So that's my hint for self and for being in relationship - to carve out time to be intentiona, l to honor each other, to really listen and acknowledge each other, and just to acknowledge if it's good. Awesome, that's good. If it's hard, Okay, it's hard - I hear you. I'm gonna do a quick message from our sponsor for days episode and then I'm going to offer you some hints on digital intimacy so staying connected, and feeling like you're creating a good container of intimacy in digital communications, whether that be texting or using Zoom or Skype, or something like that, to do video chats. But today's sponsor has been supporting the podcast for a little while now, I'm so appreciative. And they are potentially another way for you to get the help that you need the support that you're looking for as you're creating that web of support that is so valuable that we talk about on the show all the time. So this way that allows you to connect with a professional counselor in an online environment, that's safe and private and obviously respects social distancing, is today's sponsor. Better help with better help you can get help on your own time, and at your own pace. Along with scheduling video or phone sessions, you can also chat and text with your therapist, they are affordable and financial aid is available for those who qualify. So whether it's the current situation with Coronavirus or anxiety or depression or things going on in your relationship, whatever it is, definitely consider better help as a way to help you transform the places where you are stuck, and best of all, it's a truly affordable option because as a Relationship Alive listener, you get 10% off your first month with discount code, a live. So why not? It started today? Just go to better help dot com live simply fill out their questionnaire, which will help them assess your needs and get you matched with a counselor that you love, that's better. Help dot com alive, thanks better help. Alright, I'm gonna keep my promise to you that this is gonna be quick. So let's talk about digital intimacy. We'll start with texting. When I was talking before about carving out time to communicate, I think that can be helpful for texting, as well so that you are not just texting off and on throughout your day or texting a bunch of people at once too... Sometimes texting works that way, where it's designed to be asynchronous - meaning you send a message to someone and they may or may not reply to you right away - so I get it, that's how it sometimes works. So this isn't a strict rule but if you get the sense that someone is there on the other end, and ready and willing to text with you then carve at that time, carve out five minutes, 10 minutes, and just focus your energy on texting with your friends and while you are waiting for the other person to text you back instead of checking social media, or going online, or to a your favorite blog or whatever it is, I invite you to just stay present, stay present, with the waiting, waiting, for their communication - breathe, get in touch with what's happening in your body and do your best to just stay focused on that communication with that person. It makes a difference in not only feeling connected, but in their feeling your presence - especially if you're able to respond back really quickly, because you are giving that other person your full attention via text. That's my hint for texting. Now, when it comes to video chats, there are a couple of things that I've found that are really helpful and I actually use these tips when I am doing sessions with people, 'cause at this point, almost all the sessions that I do are over Zoom or Skype. And as you can imagine, it's really important for my clients to feel my presence to feel like we are creating an intimate space for those sessions to occur. So there are a couple of ways that I like to do that that seemed to work well for me. And I invite you to experiment with them and see what works well for you. The first thing is to close all your other apps, on your computer or on your phone. I guess if you're doing it on your phone, it's less of an issue because if you switch over to another app, they're gonna know. If you're in your computer, closing your browser closing everything else that's going so that you can give the other person your full attention. If you have a way of turning off your notifications on your computer or on your phone, that's good too, so that you're in a do-not-disturb mode, and you don't have little notifications popping up to disrupt your concentration or your presence. If you're on your computer, you might turn your phone over so that it's face down so that you don't have things on your phone lighting up your phone and distracting you. And the goal is for you to be as present as possible. Another thing I like to do is I like to keep my computer- I do most of my zooming via my computer - and I like to keep it in right in front of me, so whether it's on my desk, or it's on my lap on a board or something, I keep it in front of me, and I actually put my arms out and I put my arms on either side of the computer, almost like I'm holding whatever, whoever is on the other end. I'm holding the image of them on my computer screen, and I do that to create a physical container in the best way possible. That would be like if we were in-person, it would be like the same as us sitting directly opposite each other and me facing you squarely with my body, and giving you my full presence and eye contact, and you knowing that you have my full attention. So one way that I help myself do that and stay focused is by reaching my arms out in a natural way... And having them on either side of my computer as if I'm holding the person that I'm talking to. Another thing that I like to do - I've been using full screen a little bit more lately. It seems like it's working okay, but a lot of the time, what I'll do is I'll actually switch to minimizing the view of the other person - not minimizing it, so it's off the screen, but getting the little mini version so that instead of their face taking up the whole screen, that's actually like a little tiny version, of them. And then I'll move that right up to under the camera or the webcam on my computer. And that is one way that seems to be really helpful for the other person feeling like when I'm looking at them, that I'm actually looking at them. 'Cause of course this is all happening in a virtual space, right, I'm not really looking at them, I'm looking at a screen I'm looking at a picture of them and likewise, they're looking at a picture of me, but if I am looking right at where the camera is then that's the best chance that I've got of being able to make eye contact and being able to help the other person feel the presence of my gaze, and my attentiveness, as they're talking. So that's another little trick that I use from time to time and it's been really helpful. And lastly, when you're talking to another person, especially via video chat, I think it's really helpful to pay attention to your breathing. So how you are breathing and whether your breath is shallow, or whether it's deep - just noticing what's happening in you and then also noticing the breathing in the other person. So when does the person that you're talking to, take breaths, when do they exhale, when do they sigh. Paying attention to their breath also helps you just tune in to everything else that's going on with them, in general, with their body. So you notice when the color of their skin changes, or when tension appears or disappears on their face. There's something about tuning into the breath that really, I think, synchronizes us with another human in general. So I'm not saying that you should do that in a creepy way, where you're just mimicking another person's breathing pattern. But noticing it, I think does tend to bring us at least into some form of synchrony with the other person, and I think it creates a certain level of intimacy. It seems to work. So those are the tricks. Other than that, you gotta just pay attention and be receptive and acknowledge what other people are saying. Acknowledge its impact on you. Notice where it lands in your body, and tell them about it. You wanna just follow good practices for presencing yourself as you show up there in virtual digital intimacy with the other person. Okay, so those are my quick hits for the week. I have kept this under 30 minutes, we're at 26 minutes right now. I appreciate your being here with me this week and it's always good to share time and space with you, and I'm looking forward to being with you next week when I think it's gonna be my interview with my friend, Mara Wells, the romance writer, pretty sure. And I do look forward to being with you. And in the meantime, take care stay healthy, take this seriously and we'll all get through this, we'll get through it by sticking together and helping each other out. So please let me know how I can support you. You can always write to me. My email address is neilius at neilsattin.com. Or if you have a question for the show, just record yourself, asking it and email that to questions at a relationship alive.com - Sending you so much love, and blessings, and I will be with again soon.

As they try to improve their online digital services, many federal agencies could benefit from direct feedback from citizens using the services. Thanks to the Paperwork Reduction Act and other bureaucratic obstacles, asking people for feedback is difficult for agencies. It can take months to get permission. Kathy Conrad, director of digital government at Accenture Federal Services and former citizen services executive at the General Services Administration, joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin to share some strategies for improving the situation.

Joining the Event Industry News podcast for the first time this week is Nick Watson from connectivity specialists Ruckus. As Vice President for EMEA, Nick’s experience puts him in an excellent position to comment and discuss the ongoing issue of connectivity at events, something that he talks about in detail in this episode. Having overseen major projects that have delivered Wi-Fi networks within significant event venues, Ruckus has stated that the events industry will lose out if it does not improve the digital experience it delivers to its customers. Having worked extensively with major sporting events, the company has seen digital engagement by audience members become a critical part of an event’s communication strategy. If there is no way to connect, how does an audience engage with the digital content being pushed out by organisers?

In de podcast Drive luister je naar exclusieve diepte-interviews met Nederlandse topondernemers, gepresenteerd door Taco Oosterkamp. In deze aflevering: Janneke Niessen, medeoprichter van Improve Digital. 'Zorg dat je als ondernemer vervangbaar bent, anders wordt je een risico voor je eigen bedrijf.' Taco interviewt in deze podcast ondernemers die miljoenenbedrijven runnen, maar ze begonnen allemaal klein. Vaak letterlijk aan de keukentafel of op een zolderkamer. In Drive duiken we in de oorsprong van hun bedrijf en ondernemerschap: waarom werden ze ondernemer? Wat zat er tegen? Hoe zijn ze zo succesvol geworden? Luister naar alle afleveringen Janneke Niessen is medeoprichter van Improve Digital, een platform waarmee uitgevers online advertentieruimte veilen. Niessen was 5 jaar geleden samen met haar compagnon Joëlle Frijters op zoek naar funding, een zoektocht die eindigde met een overname door het Zwitserse PubliGroupe.  Champagne Die overname was niet alleen maar feest. Niessen: "Je bent vaak gefocust op dat eindmoment, die exit. Dat is even gaaf en leuk, je drinkt champagne. Maar de dag daarna is het gewoon weer business as usual." Ondanks "een heel kort lijstje" waarop stond wat PubliGroupe te zeggen had bedongen Niessen en Frijters dat zij hun bedrijf konden blijven runnen zoals zij dat zelf wilden. "Iedere ondernemer heeft een idee hoe het zou moeten. Op het moment dat je dat niet meer kunt doen, kun je jezelf niet meer zijn als ondernemer, en dan gaat het mis." Een exit zou nooit een doel op zich moeten zijn, vindt Niessen. Maar wat voor iedereen een doel zou moeten zijn is dat je zorgt dat je zelf vervangbaar bent." Anders wordt je als ondernemer zelf een bedreiging voor het voortbestaan van je bedrijf. Dat is best een lastige opgave, beaamt Niessen. "Aan de tech-kant heb ik een hele goede CTO, die zou een heel stuk kunnen overnemen." Uitdaging De grootste uitdaging is om mensen te vinden die echt beter zijn in iets dan jijzelf. "Vind die maar eens. Waarbij er een culture fit is, een persoonlijke klik én iemand ide beter is dan jij." Goede mensen zijn wat Niessen betreft ook een voorwaarde om snel te kunnen opschalen. Dat deed Improve Digital, al werd de dienst op een gegeven moment wel te veel landen tegelijk gelanceerd. "We dachten, we móeten de eerste zijn, anders zijn we te laat." Maar dat bleek niet het geval: die nieuwe markten moesten eerst 'opgevoed' worden, en dat kostte ongelofelijk veel tijd en geld. Daarnaast zorgde die snelle internationale uitrol ervoor dat de aandacht van Niessen en Frijters te veel werd versnipperd. "Je moet je tijd en geld over meerdere plekken verdelen. Als we al onze middelen op 1 land hadden gezet, en daar een heel goed persoon hadden kunnen aannemen, dan hadden we het daar veel beter gedaan. En was een volgend land makkelijker geweest." Hall of fame Op het kantoor van Improve Digital hangt een 'Hall of fame' met mensen die minstens 5 jaar bij het bedrijf werken. "Als je langer dan 5 jaar bij ons hebt gewerkt, dan ben je heel veel verschillende fases doorgegaan. Als je bij een bank of corporate werkt dan is het vaak redelijk stabiel. Hier heb je in het begin veel generalisten nodig, later specialisten. Het gaat om mensen die in staat zijn om zich continu aan te passen en relevant blijven voor het bedrijf. Dat is een bepaald type persoon waar je heel zuinig op moet zijn."
