I’ve always looked at sales as a mind game because there is so much planning and strategy involved. One could even say sales is a lot like golf. You’d never hit the ball until you analyze and reflect on the lie, wind speed, distance and direction and a hundred other variables on each hole; and plan how you’re going to reach your ultimate goal.Even the best planned strategy must constantly flex to overcome the next unexpected challenge or opportunity.

With so many options of items and services to purchase it is no wonder that buyers simply freeze sometimes and don’t make a buying decision. What’s the same, and what’s different about the companies’ services you are comparing? It seems as plain as day – a buyer needs to understand your service (or product) as compared to others and how any of the options will help the buyer.

By Amy O’Connor. When sales teams aren’t performing up to standards or expectations, sales leaders are often puzzled as to why. Sales leaders know the correct behaviors that will lead to sales – rapport building, discovery, creating the experience, closing, follow-up, etc., but they often don’t know how to get their sales people to perform those behaviors (or perform those behaviors up to acceptable standards).

I curled over the kitchen island in my home. My wife rubbed my shoulders. A searing pain shot through my upper back and along both sides of my neck. The pain was nothing new. By this point, I had seen 24 medical professionals to try and solve this strange health mystery that I had been living with for about 8 months. It was truly a living hell to wake up every day and be in so much pain that I couldn’t even go to the gym and lift weights like any active 31-year-old male should be able to do.

One of the reasons why B2B sales is so complicated is because of the many blind spots it involves that can ambush sales deals. You might optimize your prices and meet compliance regulations or you might have the best sales tools at your disposal. Yet, all else can fail if you don’t know what to do and what not to do in B2B sales. And no matter how much it’s drummed up about, I don’t believe there are any shortcuts to accelerating your sales funnel.

One of the biggest mistakes managers make is lack of follow-up. Recently, I sat in a review meeting. Almost surprisingly, it was very productive. The team was actively engaged, they were talking about important shifts in their strategies and how they would execute with the customers. There was great discussion to make sure everyone was aligned. They agreed on specific next steps and actions (though I had to hint a little at doing this.).

Today’s buyers expect more than generic outreach–they want relevant, personalized interactions that address their specific needs. For sales teams managing hundreds or thousands of prospects, however, delivering this level of personalization without automation is nearly impossible. The key is integrating AI in a way that enhances customer engagement rather than making it feel robotic.

What does it mean to do something “like a girl”? This is the question Always asks in its empowering 2014 #LikeAGirl campaign , which sought to exploit and forever bury the term “.like a girl”. Turning an insult into a bold movement of confidence not only brought revenue and popularity to the Always brand, but the 2014 campaign also won an Emmy, a Cannes Grand Prix award, and the Grand Clio award — a recognition practically unheard of in the advertising world.

ATTENTION. As marketers, before we can create interest and compel action, we must get our audience’s attention. That’s the job of the headline copy, which can take many forms: It can be the subject line of an email. It can be the title of an article or press release. It can even be the first sentence of hand-written note. Whatever the context, one fact remains constant: The headline is the most important sentence on the page.

When was the last time you replied to a generic sales email that had a boring subject line, listed vague features but promised no benefits, and lacked personalization? You probably can’t remember, because you probably never have replied to an email like that. If you want to hear back from the leads you’re prospecting, you need to strike a balance between writing up an easy-to-follow template and communicating a genuine desire to help your potential customer get what they want.
