Lean Sales Methods Webinar

During the week of June 3rd, the Business901 blog and Podcast will be dedicated to the latest thoughts on utilizing Lean Sales Methods in organizations. At the end of the week, Friday June 7th, I will host a webinar on Lean Sales Methods followed by an interactive session and a Q and A. Only registered participants will be invited to webinar and Q & A.

Lean Sales Methods allows us to start thinking about adaption and understanding that occur during learning cycles. We no longer can think about control and manipulation that occurs in the traditional sales funnel.  The problem is that sales forces have been forced to create their own hybrid way to accomplish their goals, SALES. As a result, most organization have left the sales people fend for themselves as long as they met their numbers.  We accepted a variety of methods from relationship to problem solving selling deeming that every salesperson has their own style. Though this is true, it often results in misinformation and downstream problems after the job has been sold.

Lean Sales Methods do not organize and streamline the process for a cookie cutter approach. Instead it emphasizes an action framework that allows sales people and teams to evaluate a range of options around pre-constructed scenarios. In simpler terms, we practice the possible outcomes and determine strength based approaches to them. A general outline of the week long activities:

  1. Gemba Walks
  2. Why every sales call should be constructed around CAP-Do
  3. What Metrics should be reported
  4. How to improve Sales Dialogue
  5. Teaming in the Sales Arena
  6. Why Problem Solving is out and Challenging is in.
  7. What is in it for the Sales Managers

The webinar will be approximately 15 minutes long. Afterwards, there will be an interactive session on Story Dialoguing your Sales Pitch followed by a Q and A session.
