When asked about whether they provide sales coaching, sales managers will often explain they don't have the time to do so. This is true, even when salespeople want more coaching to increase their sales effectiveness. The sales manager would also benefit from having a sales force that wins more deals.

In sales, customer objections are a fact of life. But running into the same objections time and time again can make selling feel more like Groundhog Day, especially when you know they’re coming! Maybe you have one of the more expensive solutions on the market and have to routinely defend your pricing. Perhaps you work for a boutique firm or startup and constantly deal with questions about your size, youth, or perceived lack of experience.

Long ago but close by, the leadership style was to have an arrogant leader in charge demanding how work is to be. Worse was the inherent need to accept new ideas on approaching prospects and clients on a perceived better footing, but the idea was scorned. But the worst scenario was the lack of willingness to listen to someone who wasn’t a white male.

I learned negotiation at Harvard Business School. A lot of the ideas in the class came from Getting to Yes , a book by Roger Fisher, William Ury, and Bruce Patton, which I had read before. After reading assignments and lectures, we spent most of the time negotiating scenarios. One of the popular strategies we learned was BATNA, an acronym for your “best alternative to a negotiated agreement.

The Irish data privacy board has imposed a fine of 390 million Euros ($414 million) on Meta over advertising practices that are illegal under European Union law.

There is nothing worse than having to mark an opportunity record in your CRM as "closed lost." The second-worst prompt is "closed lost reason." The field in your CRM may have a drop-down menu, so you can easily document the reason you lost the deal. It stings a little to acknowledge that another salesperson won the client's business. It is proof your competitor did something different, something that gave them an edge in creating a preference.

Salesforce is ceding the startup CRM market to HubSpot. Does it matter? Maybe not. Salesforce is focused on $100m+ deals, and SFA/CRM is a minority of their revenue.
