Social selling is growing in the mindshare of many B2B leaders, organizations are reaping the benefits of growing pipeline and revenue. However, there are a lot of questions about how to get started, key risks to avoid and how to scale. We asked eight leaders about their experiences when launching a social selling program.
As a sales pro, have you ever sat through a training program and felt like you didn’t learn anything? I’ve been there! In the past, I’ve been in training sessions where the entire sales team was in a boardroom-style setting for two to three days in a row, being lectured to by an instructor who went through the information point after point after point.
Those that believe cold calling isn’t dead often say that salespeople need more training on it. They suggest that there is a problem with sales people, not cold calling. There may be some truth to this – after all, I’m sure that my rusty cold calling skills could use a little shine.
Without the right training and reinforcement, your sales team is simply letting money wash down the drain. Why? Because sales professionals lose 50% of what they’ve learned in just five weeks. This stat might be hard to swallow, but it’s the reality that sales teams have come to accept and it needs to be addressed.
Usually we celebrate with a glass of wine after a deal is won. In this story, you’ll learn how a sales pro used wine with a dash of social selling to win a deal.
