Nurture Your Winning Team

Initially, all teams begin with hiring. Hiring good people may be different to hiring good salespeople. Good people, no matter their experience, have a willingness to learn, grow and improve with you and your team. Good salespeople, whilst being skilled and confident could lack these essential characteristics necessary to making up a winning sales team. Once you have right team, how can you BOOST them to be their BEST?

Make sure that they’re across organisational goals and have key performance indicators to motivate their accountability for what they do.

By taking ownership you will naturally increase profitability because you are making it your goal to reach your targets rather than shifting responsibility onto someone else.

You could get bogged down in the numbers but what will help them to achieve your business’s vision is to make sure they BELIEVE.

The tools that you provide as an effective business leader will leave your sales team with no excuse for what they can achieve. They must BELIEVE in what you can achieve TOGETHER.

Improve Sales Through Employee Activation

‘Employee Activation’ is achieved by creating a recognisable culture in your company that motivates your employees to feel proud of where they work and BELIEVE in what you do.

Your customers will see through your sales team if they don’t believe in what they are selling. At GDR Group we hold regular gratitude sessions, to recognise those who have shone brightly in the month prior. These sessions allow team members to highlight who they feel have been role models of our vision, values and purpose. This ensures that our values stay at the core of what we do and why we do it!

You may also be relying on your marketing team to spread your message across the channels that you use but getting all your staff across your communications can radically change how you do business.

Do your employees know what you are sharing on your channels such as Facebook and LinkedIn and the purpose of this? Encourage them to share all content to increase your reach but also to ensure you aren’t missing valuable leads!

Another way to improve sales is through business intelligence! Read more here.
