One of the biggest challenges any B2B startup faces is creating and scaling a successful sales team that delivers consistent and predictable revenue. The key to delivering this is to develop a consistent sales process that ensures your entire sales team - whether your team has 1 or 20 members - has a common understanding of the best practices at every stage of the sales cycle and follows a structured process for taking your prospects through each step of your sales pipeline. This workshop will help you map out the framework for your own B2B Sales Playbook to define your own initial best practices and show you how to iterate this Playbook for even greater success as you learn more about your market, customers and your own unique sales approach. You'll also be shown examples of how to structure your sales team as well as how to coach existing team members and hire and train new sales people to ensure that everyone is following your Playbook and providing feedback on how to improve it even further.
