There are sales organizations with anemic pipelines and too few opportunities struggling to find growth. Most of what SDRs are required to do is calling leads ( not the same thing as targets ) to qualify them, handing the “qualified prospect” to a more senior salesperson who handles the rest of the process. Without Accountability.

These and many other factors have made whatever might once have been a linear sales process more difficult to follow and maintain. Disclaimer : I would never suggest you go without a sales process. Too little guidance (or no process at all) and you remove “overall intent.” Not Following Orders.

Both the stage and the outcome described the process of asking clients to share their dissatisfaction with their results, their supplier, and their challenges. B2B Sales is a Game of Consensus-Building.

That won’t do as you sell your way out of a crisis.
