Moving the middle
● Focus on what matters
○ Don’t just be “busy”
○ Don’t get caught in endless admin work
○ Understand your reps are having trouble “getting
it” and they know there’s a problem
#SalesDevGuide#SalesLeadership
Moving the middle
● Provide Guidance
○ Dive into activity metrics during 1-on-1
meetings
○ Compare those to time spent on admin
work
○ Make necessary adjustments
○ Analyze data and use dashboards to
visualize the insights

Coaching is crucial
#SalesDevGuide#SalesLeadership
Coaching is crucial
#SalesDevGuide#SalesLeadership
“If there was no coaching or reinforcement
activity following training, there was a drop-
off of 87% of the knowledge acquired. That’s
a waste of 87 cents on every dollar spent on
formal development efforts.”
-Neil Rackham, author of Spin Selling
Coaching is crucial
● Ask, listen & identify the problem
○ Insufficient # cold calls/emails
○ Lack of trust built during sales call
○ Product-focused sales call
○ Price-focused sales call
○ Not asking enough questions
○ Not asking relevant questions
○ Personal issues at home
#SalesDevGuide#SalesLeadership
Make it a game
● Competition/Gamification
○ Digital leaderboards
○ Spiffs
○ Caution: may be seen as public shaming
○ Check out these solutions:
