#240 - How to Run Team Deal Reviews to Find the Blindspots (D’Arcy Doyle @ Productboard)
FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS Run weekly team deal reviews where the entire team finds the blindspots in a deal. Make those deal reviews positive and fun — it’s us versus the deal, not us vs the rep. Use the benign reachout early in your sales cycle by having your CEO send a note to their CEO offering their early support in the evaluation. Get beyond just doing demos. If you talk about features you’ll be relegated to the folks who want to talk about that (a CFO doesn’t care).

#237 - How to Make your Team Prospect with Operating Rhythms and Calendar Invites (Shay Keeler @ CaptivateIQ)
Shay's Tactic Toolkit: How You Work Questions FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS Write down every priority you could work on, then narrow it down to the top 3 and be okay letting things burn. Don’t stop drilling in on those priorities until your team starts to complete your sentences and tattle on themselves. If you wanna get your teams prospecting, set daily expectations, put them in calendar invites in an operating rhythm, then get wildly tactical on how to do it. Use the “How You Work” questions to get to know the human behind the seller and push them to the next level.

#236 - Land Your Dream Sales Job With These Killer Interview Tactics (Adam Ochart @ Gong)
ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Hit adversity head-on. If you got hit with the RIF — tell them you probably could have survived, and here’s how. Never be surprised — get the cheat code questions to the interview from your recruiter and interviewer. Be concise. Start with the 4-step process, then ask them how deeply you want them to unpack each. Golden hour follow-ups. Within 60 minutes, hit the recruiter and interviewer — and stand out by sharing what you could’ve done better in the interview or maybe even your favorite cold emails.

#235 - How to Bulletproof your Team's Pipeline with the So-What Train and Win Strategy Docs with Rebecca Feiten @6sense
FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS Split 1:1s and deal reviews — don’t try to combine a professional development chat with a pipeline review! Before a pipe review, ensure your reps pre-select the deals they want to review and prepare win strategy docs, mapping out all key external stakeholders. Beat up the deals with the so-what train. Keep asking so-what to uncover the implication of the pain — until you don’t have an answer anymore, that’s what you need to find out. Two questions to determine if a rep is ready to be a manager: Can they clearly communicate why they’re winning? And are YOU learning from that rep?

#234 - Sales Playbook: Nick and Armand Teach You How To Forecast
Every 10th episode, we tear down one topic. This time, we’re talking about landing your forecast in Q4. Bonus: Get the 30MPC Forecasting Guide ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS The forecast should never be a surprise to your manager. You should be able to give one-sentence pipeline review updates and get through over 15 deals in a 30-minute pipeline review into your forecast. For your forecast, you're going to call your key deals and your worst case and move to your commit, which is your bet on what will actually happen. Play the spread. If your commit consists of one deal landing, you should probably have two to four in inventory. Throughout the month or the quarter, your forecast will start to taper. Don't be a sandbag - don’t set a goal or forecast that's way too high. RESOURCES DISCUSSED Join our weekly newsletter Things you can steal

#233 - Steal Kyle Asay’s Sales Competency Framework to Produce World-Class Sellers
Kyle’s Competency Framework FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS Pick 1-3 competencies to coach a rep on max. Train your team, then establish a coaching rhythm to reinforce the training and a metric to track it. Get your managers bought in otherwise your training will fall flat. Turn your managers into microphones instead of filters. Give your reps multiple ways to get to a “good day” — build a Good Day Framework that assigns points to both inputs and outcomes. If you have a rep who isn’t willing to work hard at the professional development plan that both you AND they agreed to… why would you keep working with that rep?

But wait! Want more from Grace & Outreach? Check out the 30MPC X Outreach: 1 Sequence to Create and 5 Templates to Close FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Brainstorm how you're going to advance each of your opportunities before you have your pipeline review with your manager. Don't show up like a deer in headlights. Block time for immediately after your pipeline reviews to take action on the things you agreed to do to drive your deals forward. Structure your forecast calls - cover updates, health scores, next steps, amount, and close dates. Avoid spending the entire time on one deal by scheduling big bets calls for complex deal reviews. Utilize a zero inbox strategy by organizing your inbox into action items, read through later, awaiting a reply.

#231 - Incentivizing Your Team to Dominate Q4 (Doug Landis @ Emergence Capital)
Mark Kosglow's Course FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS Re-evaluate your Q4 incentives. Lots of sales reps aren’t making money now. Throw in SPIFs and kickers that squeeze the juice out of ICP deals or even a $500 referral SPIF for customers. Build your 2024 model for efficiency instead of growth. Sell your CEO, board, or finance team on healthy attainment to keep your best reps fed. They will carry you through a downturn. Consider running hot. Your top sellers will over-perform and make up for a gap in capacity you might have with a bloated team. Get everyone on the same page on healthy growth. No one wants a horrible CAC payback, a burning sales team, or a team that can’t keep their top reps.

#230 - Jen Puts Nick in the Hot Seat to Learn His Secrets to the Perfect Sales Call (Nick Cegelski @ 30 Minutes to President’s Club)
FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Back Pocket Questions - Prepare multiple questions for your sales calls that you can pull out at any time. Use them if you get "stuck" at any point. Strategic Social Proof - instead of simply namedropping customers, use customer story examples that are relevant to how you’d envision your buyer using your service, ex. Having a similar use case. Make Discounting "Weird" - When you get hit with a price objection, your response needs to signal concern/confusion. You want to signal that this request is not biz as usual. Alternative Video Use Cases - Video isn’t just for prospecting. Use video for "pre-call context" + "post-call recaps" + "Exec Summaries" PATH TO PRESIDENT’S CLUB Founder @ 30 Minutes to President’s Club Senior Account Executive @ Time by Ping Enterprise Account Executive @ SurePoint Technologies Account Executive @ Aderant RESOURCES DISCUSSED Join our weekly newsletter Things you can steal

#229 - Build a Better Sales Call with this Foolproof Framework (Jen Allen-Knuth @ DemandJen)
FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Don't put your customer in box. Use "soft" language like "typically", "usually" and "what I've seen". Before holding an intro meeting with a new prospect, mine your ecosystem for inside intel about what they care about & what they're like. Always assume there are multiple decision-makers in a deal (not just 1). Tell the customer upfront who you're NOT for - it actually makes you appear more credible.

#228 - Lessons From A Renowned CRO: Evolving Your Sales Team Through Process And Accountability (Stevie Case @ Vanta)
FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS Burndown: Every day before the end of the month, make your team put all open deals in a spreadsheet with a two-line update. When you’re rolling out a methodology like command of the message, you can’t stop at the initial training. Every single new product launch needs to be trained in that framework, otherwise, it’s forgotten. Make sure your reps tell you what role you need to play on calls! Your CRO can always freestyle, but they much prefer you tell them what to do. 80% of the upward communications should be focused on the problems you need to solve. Often times your CEO just wants to know that you’re aware of the problems.

#227 - Utilize Discounts and Timelines to Never Let a Deal Slip (Harry Lort-Phillips @ Pave)
FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Anytime you’re asking about a get — sell why it’s important to the business. IE: You moving faster allows us to get ahead in our heavy implementation season. Assign values to the different “gets” from a customer and put together a slide that walks the customer through these. When turning down bad deals, walk them through how finance wouldn’t ever agree to multi-year flat deal, but how they can achieve a similar outcome with a different commercial structure. If someone slips on a timeline commitment, you might have to honor the number, but you can always ask for another get in return.

#226 - Club Playbook: Three Steps to Cold Calling Success (ft. Jason Bay of Outbound Squad)
Download Jason Bay’s Cold Calling Framework FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Open a Cold Call with a permission-based opener to get prospects to opt into talking to you. Your tone of voice is key because it’s hard to hang up on a genuinely nice person. Go for the reverse pitch by sharing what is top of mind for their peers. Start with what is relevant to them, not what you’re trying to accomplish. Hook prospects into scheduling the next meeting by finding problems you can solve. Start with the problems they share with their peers. If you know the prospect is a good fit, don’t ask if they want that next meeting at the end of the call.

#225 - The Formula For Coaching Your Reps To President's Club (Patricia DuChene @ Postal)
FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS Start & End of Week 15min stand-ups: Start each week by listing out by individual what you are going to accomplish this week, it should be measurable. Breakdown calls into the sum of their parts: intro x discovery x demo x closing, but then coach to the THEMES across the parts. Situation-Behavior-Impact Feedback: Describe the situation (put them back on the scene), remind them of their behavior/what they did, explain the impact of it. Send the 3x3x3 to your CEO every day on Friday: 3 Up for the Week. 3 Down for the Week. 3 for Next Week.

#224 - Mastering the Bookends: How Your Open Dictates Your Close (Joe Diliberto @ Sandler Training)
FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS The person asking the questions is the person running the call. While it can feel good to respond to rapid fire questions, make sure you don't lose control of the call by seeking to understand the 'why' behind the question. Objections are opinions. Instead of jumping to overcome them, seek to understand them, by identifying if the objection is rooted in a lack of why change, why now, or why us. Use the 2 minute call prep drill: Call Purpose, Desired outcome, Predict their Pains, Guess Behavior Style. Exchange of information on a sales call should be bilateral, not unilateral. Make the exchange of information equitable by "reversing" (answer a question with a question).

FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS When getting in person, try to dress the same "level" as your customer's office attire. When in doubt, dress one notch nicer. Use the right communication tool for the job. Synchronous conversation wins. Use this decision criteria for when to meet your customer in-person: size of deal, proximity to your location, and stage in the sales process (discovery phase is ideal).

If a prospect isn't responding, give up and reallocate that effort to prospects that are legitimate. At the end of the meeting, before getting to the next step, pulse-check the customer using the 5-minute drill. It’s okay to sometimes lose a negotiation in favor of getting the deal done. Whenever possible, you should opt for a live conversation with your prospects. Abandon the belief that activity equals achievement. Instead, recognize that your job exists to accomplish outcomes.

If someone’s shopping competitors, plant landmines for them to ask for specific pitfalls during the competitive demo. When you’re waiting for them to finish the competitive evaluation, make a goodwill introduction to a resource that will help them. Review your pipeline by asking: What’s the persona? Do I understand the decision? What’s my next step? If there isn’t one, what am I doing to get one?
