Sales messaging needs to be deeper, more nuanced, more natural, and more of a conversation.Too often people confuse marketing messaging and sales messaging.You'll learn why marketing and sales messaging are different: One-to-many vs One-to-oneGeneralized vs PersonalizedLead with message vs Lead towards messageSuperficial vs In-depth conversation----------If you are a sales leader, you are probably under pressure right now to use your headcount on quota-carrying positions BUT you intuitively know you need to invest in the team to help them succeed.
