I was on the weekly #livesaleslab hosted by Carole Mahoney and Rick Roberge of Unbound Growth. Have you joined yet? It’s essentially a mastermind group where salespeople can call in with scenarios that are stumping them, or they are just looking for a different perspective on how to handle, and you get coaching. Not just from Carole and Rick but from each other. If you are interested in joining us sometime, here’s more info.
Today, a Sales VP joined to listen in.
At the end, he had a question. He wanted to know why we cared so much about closing the one opportunity that each of us brought to the call. He said the answers that he got were ones he didn’t expect. His thought, was that salespeople care about individual opportunities because they have nothing else going on in their pipeline. A mindset like this means every opportunity is like life or death, figuratively speaking of course.
