Discounting – The Death of a Business

/in , , , , , , , , /by

Discounting is dangerous. It’s very tempting for an eager salesperson to close the business by offering a discount, but even a small discount can make a huge impact on a company’s margin. But the good news is that you don’t have to discount (at all or as much).

Bill gives you 3 ideas that can help your sales team overcome this temptation and how to avoid the topic of discounting from being apart of the conversation.

Are You Willing To Change Your Identity?

/in , , , , /by

Bill met with a VP of Sales recently who was working with a business coach. The VP felt pretty happy overall and even noticed some movement with him and his team, but he is considering taking a break from the coach. He told Bill, “the coach focuses a lot on issues inside the team and it always seems to get better for a while but goes back to the way it was.”

All good Coaches should be working on two areas, Issues but more importantly, Identity. Not your Identity as in your name and race, but how you see yourself and your potential. When we change our identity, that is when real growth occurs.

The Rise of The Digital Seller

/in , , , , , /by

I had the pleasure of working with a young man a while back who was one of THE most ambitious people I’ve met. He took virtually every coaching point I gave him.

He was faced with a dilemma – should he keep doing things the old way – cold calling, traveling, selling, OR – should he switch course?

I, of course, suggested he switch. On this episode of The 2X Podcast, I’ll share his story.

The team member “Karl” has been acting up lately and it seems to be increasing. His actions are starting to affect the whole team and it needs to be addressed before it’s too late.

Bill gives him some ways of identifying undesirable traits and some ways to approach a team member who might be displaying these traits. When you have a team member who isn’t acting appropriately, the way you approach can be extremely important and might help you avoid a serious problem.
