A sales career is built on self-balancing your time
For an effective sales career, you need to be self-balancing. In every sales role, there is a constant pull of your time and energy between two opposites.
For example: “Do I…….
- Focus on my current customers or focus on prospecting. The hunter-farmer decision
- Focus on the strategic few customers or treat every customer equally.
- Make sales calls or have an office day.
- Focus on one market segment or cover all of them in my geographic territory.
- Become a specialist versus being a generalist.
- Focus on technical and data to sell versus more of a relationship selling style.
- Being all about your commission versus being all about the customer versus being all about the most technically correct solution.
