Strategies for Effective Sales Leadership: Deal Evaluation, Information Gathering, and Career Pathing

FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS

• Do a bi-weekly "pipe squeeze" (pipeline review) with each rep share your screen and take notes as you go to save time & maintain control
• Discounts drive velocity, when a deal has stalled or there is no next step, use a manager email to see if a pricing incentive will move the close date
• Ask the same 5 questions in deal review - Deal size, deal close date, buyer buy in, next step, and any incentives on the deal. Send the update to your leader for upward transparency
• Only have reps forecast deals in pipeline for the month then run the historical math to see what may change both positive or negative
