Talking about your sales failures.

Are you successful with your sales? Perhaps you aren’t so successful with your sales because I see your extremely annoyed face. May be you are likely to blame the entire universe for this as well as your customers and staff. You think that your staff is too lazy or something like this. You consider the market to be a cruel system which can’t refer to justice. But if your sales are successful then you refer this to your occasional luck or other factors which are rather hard to be taken into account.

So it doesn’t matter whether your sales are good or bad, because the main thing is that all of this can’t a drifting process. Your sales are governed by certain reasons. From my point of view when trying to answer this question we should take into account salespersons and in particular their skills. You shouldn’t search for challenges in other parts of your business because I have already mentioned above those real reasons, so you’d better stick to them. Every month you should get orders if everything is adjusted in the right way. The market can’t be a constant thing. Market conditions constantly change and some people fail to meet requirements of the current situation. And these people can be your salespersons and even you to my great regret.

So it’s high time to analyze your particular approach to your sales. The matter is that most probably people deal with figures when dealing with sales. So only figures can be come across when receiving reports of your staff regarding your sales. But at the same time these people and you forget about the necessity to conduct a deep analysis of failures taking into consideration the current level of skills and other factors relating to personalities engaged in sales activity. So instead of looking at those worthless and abstract numbers you need to ask the only one question “Why?” and find an answer to it.

As for me I have been working in this sphere for a long time. So according to my personal experience it’s wrong to focus on many things at the same time. This may cause rather a destructive effect from my point of view. I understand that this might sound incredible and even suspicious but it’s true. In stead of paying attention to many things simultaneously you’d better focus on such things as your sales structure, budget and salesperson. Just believe me that almost everything corresponding to sales is dependent on those parameters mentioned above. So you have to analyze those factors mentioned above and make conclusions how to upgrade. It seems to me you should start with your salespersons. They are alive creatures, they can understand you and you have levers to influence them.
