What Habits Are Your Salespeople Going to Fall Back on?
Any sales system worth using will profoundly alter how your sales team looks at and understands selling. But your sales team won’t systematically apply these insights and techniques without coaching and reinforcement.
It’s no different than expecting people to radically alter their long-term eating and exercise habits with nothing more than a book. It takes more than knowledge - more than a one time event.
12 Weeks of Reinforcement and Daily, In-The-Field Application
The Brooks Group Sales Coach acts as your team members’ personal trainer for 12 weeks following their initial training. Weekly assignments apply IMPACT Selling techniques to their current prospecting and sales activities, and weekly follow-up coaching calls simultaneously providing feedback, accountability, and reinforcement.
This in-the-field coaching connects the “how to” of actually implementing techniques and tactics with the “why to” of developing a fingertip-feel for how each step of the IMPACT sales process drives the success of the sale. And it’s making these connections that powers sales success.
Sales Management Training: Hardwiring IMPACT Selling into Your Culture
Imagine one of your sales professionals talking to his manager about a prospective sale following a first meeting.
Instead of the usual vague, confusing questions and answers, the manager is able to ask him:
Was this a pull or a push prospect, and did they meet all five qualifications?
What kind of research did you conduct before the meeting?
Did you figure the underlying wants (as well as the needs)? Did you address them?
What was the transition like in setting up you next meeting/presentation?
With all of these questions framed by the IMPACT Selling Process and its specific techniques, is there any chance that sales professional won’t achieve a disciplined application of the system? Or that the sales manager won’t have clear insight into the state of the sale?
Are you beginning to see why you need a sales system?
And what if that were the sales professionals peers asking the questions? What if there was a team competition, with prize money involved?
Our experience is that implementation is always a success under these circumstances - and we’ve had considerable experience in successfully transforming sales teams.
