In my last two VP of Sales roles, I found a surprising trend. There was a high degree of correlation between my team’s win rates and the amount of time spent in the discovery phase of the sales cycle. In fact, the relationship across dozens of sales reps in different geographies was clear: the more efficiently we moved a customer through the discovery phase, the greater our win rate.

They get lost in the questions. They meander from topic to topic, desperately searching for some simple problem or issue they can attach their product to, in order to quickly get to the demonstration or presentation part of the sale.

The current pandemic and financial crises create an unprecedented opportunity to engage our customers in high value and impact ways.

Q: How do you structure a sales team when you’ve got zero experience doing sales? Well, first go get some experience with sales ??. At least, close the first 10 customers yourself. If you don’t, you’ll never have any idea how to do it. And the odds your first rep succeeds goes way, way down. OK assuming you know how to do it (you’ve closed 10+ customers yourself) … then you do you structure your first team?

However, there was one function of a blog post that took some time getting used to, and that was a meta description.
