Sales Productivity Systems

Many sales organizations struggle to increase sales productivity while focusing on fixes that cannot stand alone. For example, providing new systems that require sales reps to adopt new habits won’t produce the desired behavior changes if sales reps are still being managed or measured according to old standards that are not aligned with these new habits and behaviors. It’s an easy and frequent mistake, one that costs sales organizations time and money every day. Creating systems to align all sales productivity drivers is a smart approach, one that requires a strategic and analytical perspective. When all the parts are working together, sales productivity systems are aligned with training and development, with performance standards, and with the management and leadership training that forms the foundation for continued acceleration of productivity. When the parts are not aligned, sales reps become confused or frustrated and productivity ultimately suffers.
