The GTM Launchpad Issue #31: Unleashing Sales Velocity
Mastering Productivity for Game-Changing Results
Welcome to the GTM Launchpad newsletter! Each week, I will share with you a sales play to help you grow your business, level up your sales game, and find success in the trenches. I aim to provide you with actionable insights. Stay tuned for practical tips on cold calling, lead gen, and closing deals!
Hey folks!
Maximizing your sales productivity isn’t just about closing more deals faster. It’s about working smarter not harder 🚀
Why Focus on Sales Productivity? Because every minute counts. According to research the average sales rep only spends 37% of their time selling.
The rest? Admin, data entry, meetings... the list goes on
But here’s the thing for every 5% increase in seller productivity revenue spikes up by a whopping 20%. Imagine what that could mean for your team
So How Do You Maximize Sales Productivity? 🧐
Prioritize: Not every lead is worth your time. Score them. Rank them. Invest time where it counts.
Automate Admin: CRMs are a godsend. If you’re manually entering data in 2023 you're playing catch up!
Continual Learning: The sales landscape changes. Regular training keeps your team sharp and adaptive.
Tools & Tech: Embrace tools that reduce repetitive tasks. Time saved = more time selling.
Mental Health Matters: A stressed rep won't be productive. Encourage breaks. Preach balance.
Now taking this productivity chat up a notch if you're looking to revolutionize your calling game you HAVE to check out Nooks. It’s an AI-powered parallel dialer and virtual sales floor.
