Improved ramp time for new reps by 40% Some CROs see the value and still want to wait for the “right time” (ie. after SKO, after year end) Other CROs like Brent Thurrell see the value and move fast knowing now is the only time. A big reason why he’s running a half a billion ARR revenue org. Decisive and knows the moves he made earlier in the year start paying off in Q4 and in Q1. Your next year starts now. #TOP #Sales #Training

If you're heading to Gartner CSO next week, don't miss Ami Arad's presentation on May 21 at 2:05pm! He'll contrast the traditional ways sellers prioritize their accounts and the new way made possible through buyer intent and predictive models.

Missing sales quotas? Despite best efforts, a lot of sales teams are set up to struggle. So, sales leaders need to identify and address the root cause. One of the main reasons sellers don't hit quota is inefficient prospecting. Many sellers are bogged down by time spent targeting low-value accounts, as well as scrambling to knit together information about accounts so they can reach the right people and tailor their pitch. These time-sinks steal opportunities to actually SELL. The key lies in shifting focus from merely increasing the number of leads and activities to maximizing the value of activities. Concentrating on quality and qualification rather than quantity empowers sales reps to improve performance and consistently meet their targets.

Sales folks especially SDRs and AEs I will tell you a hack about how to achieve more in less time ↓ "Start blocking your calendar thoughtfully and strategically every single day" Working out of whims & fancies and adhocism will not get you the desired result you aspire to achieve. You need to have a plan for your day even before starting the day. Every time you block your calendar make sure you block it for a single activity and you define what output you want to achieve out of this activity. Have a time block for at least Prospecting, Identifying new accounts, and Follow-ups on a daily basis, the rest you can block based on your roles and KRAs. Remember: "You cannot control time but you can surely control how you want to spend the time"

Time kills all deals. That saying is so true especially in SMB sales. If you get an inbound lead and you can't get in touch with them within the first 48 hours, it's likely not going anywhere. Be focused on quickly getting in touch with any inbound leads to maximize your chance of actually speaking with them. The Raken SMB team is constantly evaluating our approach to inbound leads to get in touch with as many as possible. #sales #smbsales #saas #saassales

SDRs – before you cold call, remember: → Prospects are humans just like you → They have problems you can solve → Your next call could be your best call → You’ve got absolutely nothing to lose → A “no” now could turn into a “yes” later → Every call could unlock $$ commission → Win/lose every call is a chance to learn → Each dial gets you 1 step closer to quota → You’ll likely never meet them face-to-face Happy hunting this week.
