20 - The Most Important Number in Sales is "1"

In this episode, we delve into the importance of a crucial number in sales - one. It's the number that determines our success, guides our decision-making, and fosters collaboration between sales managers and salespeople. Understanding the "power of one" means knowing how many leads it takes to secure one appointment, how much investment is needed for one appointment, and how many prospects are required to close one sale. These numbers enable us to effectively prioritize our efforts and make strategic business choices. While technology aids in tracking certain metrics like talk time and call volume, we must also consider the effort and time spent on prospecting. Sales professionals must be adept at time management, balancing limited hours with numerous tasks. It's crucial to invest time wisely, focusing on activities that yield long-term benefits while achieving short-term sales goals. The ultimate goal is to determine how many hours of prospecting equal one appointment and allocate time wisely among various prospecting methods. Excessive time spent on preparation and research should be avoided, and the focus should shift towards actual contact and engagement with potential clients. During this conversation, we emphasize the significance of understanding the number of hours or actions required to achieve specific outcomes. Salespeople must be aware of the hours of preparation that lead to one appointment, the hours of prospecting that equal one task, and the number of proposals needed to secure one sale. By monitoring and analyzing these numbers, sales professionals can evaluate the effectiveness of their preparation and optimize their strategies accordingly. We also stress the importance of continuous optimization, as goals and market conditions are constantly evolving. Exceptional negative experiences should not be allowed to influence our strategy. Instead, we should maintain confidence in the "power of one" and understand the various efforts and moving parts involved in achieving a single outcome, such as the number of prospects needed to secure a sale. Moreover, having an adequate number of prospects is crucial, and adjustments may be necessary in the pipeline or targeting the right audience. Sales professionals are encouraged to embrace change and adapt their strategies to the new business landscape, as everything has evolved since March 2020. Tune in to this episode to gain valuable insights into the "power of one" and learn how understanding this concept can transform your sales approach and drive success in today's dynamic market.

In today's episode, we discuss the sales maturity model, a tool that any SMB can use to determine its level of sales capability and what will be need to reach its growth and scaling targets.  The four stages of the sales maturity model we explored were sales survival, sales personality, sales architecture, and the unstoppable stage. In the sales survival stage, the owner or founder is responsible for selling to cover costs and building the business. Salespeople are hired in the sales personality stage based on their personality, and the sales operation follows the belief and interpretive approach of individual salespeople. The sales architecture stage is a top-down approach developed and supported by senior management, requiring forecasting discipline overseen and reported at the senior leadership team level. The standard of measurement is one's ability to forecast future income at salary bet level across the sales team. As we explored how to scale businesses, it became clear that we need to have a predictable and safer way of doing it than relying on individuals. Governance-level monitoring done by senior leadership to provide an auditor of sales can help in this regard, while sales leadership can offer detailed sales management and KPI tracking. Scaling a business involves sales management more than salespeople. One competent sales manager with two or three sellers will do in three years what five or six salespeople will take ten years to do. We need a sales architecture stage with sales leadership that creates weekly meetings as a strategic tool for building sales capability. Additionally, we need to create a learning infrastructure covering domain knowledge, business acumen, and specific selling skills that equips our sellers to create a quality dialogue and develops them into strategic product features. Finally, we explored the unstoppable stage, at which salespeople become incredibly effective and the team becomes a source of innovation. Continual improvement comes from the sales team, and sellers become dedicated to personal bests, with the company benefiting from their drive to improve. Reaching this stage requires investing in building stage three sales architecture, while the unstoppable phase is bottom-up with continuous improvement coming from the sales team.

Human-Centered Communication: A Business Case Against Digital Pollution by Ethan Beute and Stephen Pacinelli About the Book: Digital pollution is the problem. Human-centered communication is the solution. We're spending more time than ever in virtual environments. That will only increase, as will the amount of noise we encounter there. The seemingly endless series of unwelcome digital distractions range from frustrating to dangerous. As individuals and businesses, we not only spend time and energy managing this digital pollution, we often create it. At risk are relationships and revenue. The only viable way forward is to be more thoughtful, intentional, and personal. Human-Centered Communication provides a philosophy and practice to help you connect in more meaningful and effective ways with prospects, customers, team members, and every stakeholder in your success. Learn to: Break through the noise and earn attention Build trust and create engagement Enhance your reputation with both people and algorithms The concepts and models in this book apply to any form or channel of communication, but human centricity favors video. More visual and emotional than faceless digital communication, video enhances tone, intent, subtlety, nuance, and meaning. Learn to be clearer and more confident on camera in live video calls, meetings, and presentations, as well as in recorded video emails, social messages, and text messages. The authors of the bestselling Rehumanize Your Business join with eleven industry-leading experts from companies like Salesforce, HubSpot, and RE/MAX to lead the growing conversation on leveraging human strengths in an increasingly digital world. The brightest future is tech-enabled, but authors Ethan Beute and Stephen Pacinelli show that it's also human-centered. The experts studied, interviewed, and featured: Jacco van der Kooij, Founder of Winning by Design Dan Hill, Ph.D., President of Sensory Logic Mathew Sweezey, Director of Market Strategy at Salesforce Julie Hansen, Creator of the Selling on Video Master Class Adam Contos, CEO of RE/MAX Lauren Bailey, Founder and President of Factor 8 and #GirlsClub Mario Martinez Jr, Founder and CEO of Vengreso Viveka von Rosen, Co-founder and Chief Visibility Officer at Vengreso Shep Hyken, Customer Service and Customer Experience Expert Morgan J Ingram, Director of Sales Execution at JB Sales Training Dan Tyre, sales executive and founding team member at HubSpot Among the themes addressed: Trust and relationships Communication and connection Service and value Text and video Noise and pollution Among the types of videos in which you'll become more confident and effective: Live, synchronous video meetings Recorded, asynchronous video messages Video calls and video presentations Video in emails and text messages Video in social feeds and social messages Video for specific individuals and large groups Video for known audiences and anonymous masses Video for prospects, customers, employees, and other stakeholders For immediate benefits and for long-term reputation, now is the time to get ahead of and stay ahead of ever-increasing digital noise and pollution - with Human-Centered Communication. About the Author: Ethan Beute is the Chief Evangelist at BombBomb a video email sales and marketing software platform, is the host of The Customer Experience Podcast, and co-author of Rehumanize Your Business: How Personal Videos Accelerate Sales and Improve Customer Experience (featured on episode 239 of The Marketing Book Podcast in 2019). Ethan has collected and told personal video success stories in hundreds of blog posts, in dozens of webinars, podcasts, and stage presentations, and in countless conversations. He's sent more than 12,000 video messages himself. Prior to joining BombBomb, he spent a dozen years leading marketing inside local television stations in Chicago, Grand Rapids, and Colorado Springs.

What is a Sales Development Representative? with Morgan J Ingram, Ep #125  If you’re in the world of procurement, a Sales Development Representative (SDR) is an often misunderstood and foreign role. What is an SDR (Or BDR or AE)? What do they do? How does their role impact or affect procurement? My friend, Morgan J Ingram, joins me in this episode of Negotiations Ninja to help us understand the role of an SDR—and why they’re not the enemy.  Morgan is currently the Director of Sales Execution and Evolution at John Barrows. His initial dream was to be in sports management—but after graduating college, he realized he’d have to continue his education and get a law degree. On top of that, the odds of him making it were between 1-3%. He pivoted, reached out to a local startup, and ended up being hired as a SDR.  Listen to this episode as he shares about his struggle as an SDR and how he broke through and found success. He shares insight into the sales side of the spectrum, his 11-touch campaign strategy, and how to best understand the interplay between sales and procurement.  Outline of This Episode [1:35] Morgan J Ingram’s background in sales [6:32] Two strategies to start a cold-call strong [12:00] Overcome anxiety associated with cold-calling [16:20] Morgan’s 11-touch campaign strategy [20:55] What procurement people should know about SDR’s [23:04] An SDRs impression of procurement  [27:27] Two pieces of advice about sales and negotiation [30:03] How to connect with Morgan Resources & People Mentioned High-Profit Prospecting by Mark Hunter Connect with Morgan J Ingram John Barrows Sales Training website SDR Chronicles on YouTube SDR Chronicles on Apple Podcasts Morgan on LinkedIn Morgan on Twitter Connect With Mark Follow Negotiations Ninja on Twitter: @NegotiationPod Connect with Mark on LinkedIn Follow Negotiations Ninja on LinkedIn Connect on Instagram: @NegotiationPod Subscribe to Negotiations Ninja

Have you ever thought how can I win 5 x deals repeatedly? Well, today I have Lisa D Magnuson, the author of four books on sales. Her latest book 'The TOP Sales Leader Playbook: How to Win 5X Deals Repeatedly' published, Nov. 2019 To 5X your deals, Lisa says, the good news is that there is a formula to secure 5x your normal contract size.  When you are talking 5x deals it requires different work to your normal deal.  It can be time-consuming, messy and convoluted but worth it! First, you must score your top opportunities that lend themselves to bigger opportunities. It is not just based on revenue, but of strategic opportunity or geographical or marquee name.  Then ask: What is the appetite of the account team to do the necessary work? Where would the account team score the customer's commitment to go through the purchasing journey and do you have access to those people? War room helps clients score their opportunities, in one example a client realised they did not have access that the opportunity of securing 5x was reduced.  Lisa said, it took nine months, but it was a 5x deal in the end. The reason Lisa said she wrote, The TOP Seller Advantage, was that account team would work so hard to get the executive sponsor, high five the success of the meeting and not nurture the relationship and have to start again when it came time to secure another deal.  This did not cultivate the executive relationship because the executive is not going to remember them, the research surveyed answers from executives:  Why would you take a meeting with a salesperson? What would have to occur during the meeting to feel it was worth the meeting? Why would cause you to leave the door open to future meetings? To keep all the people moving forward and with relevant insight, you must be organised to march down the executive path, regular account strategy session, pre-call planning and research on the company and executive.  This takes: Sales Leadership - to commit to organise lead and inspire. Sales Methodology – what’s are way what are the steps and system Sales Execution – you must have the account planning session and pre-call research Sales Culture – How do you create a company culture that prioritises the short term of long term result Lisa agrees the sales culture must start at the top, with the CEO, but the person that executes the work must be the sales leader.  There are strategies to engage the cross-functional executive team, anyone who is going to impact the 5x deal. The account team gets it right if it is diverse on who to call, when and what to talk about the competitive blocks and the competitive map.  The account team must be diverse said Lisa, backed by a strong quarterback with backup up from a strong sales leader. In 2014, conducting research for her book, Lisa interviewed VP of sales and realised they were all male, she was astonished the efforts she had to go through to ensure she achieves a diversity of views at the VP Sales level, concluding we still have a long way to go. Pre-call planning is the way to increase sales and close more deals, emphasizing the are stats that it takes 16 attempts to get a meeting, so you must be prepared if you are to increase your success rate.
