Recruiting new sales talent and hiring better salespeople are complicated and time-consuming processes. Especially, when you're not prepared to fill a vacancy, don't have a pipeline of candidates, or have an idea of what "better" means for your business.

If you are a human being with a heartbeat, the ability to fog a mirror by breathing on it, and in possession of a work email address you were foolish enough to use to fill out a form on a website, then you are in someone’s prospecting sequence. You are likely in dozens of sequences, few of which are relevant, many being nothing less than an automated, brute force form of persistence.

Chers hôteliers, Depuis des années, l’étude de votre satisfaction client n’est plus un sujet compliqué. Vous analysez vos clients selon un ensemble de critères qui vous sont propres ; et cela vous convient très bien. Comment faire cette analyse ? Simple : demander à tous ses clients de noter sur 10 les critères de l’hôtel (staff, propreté, service, petit-déjeuner, etc.) puis faire une moyenne.
Speaker: Lauren Fernandez - CEO & Founder, Full Course
Companies all over the world, including Marriot International and Hilton Worldwide, are aware of the value of including DEI in their talent acquisition strategy. However, despite these initiatives, there is still plenty that the hospitality sector can do to promote DEI. When comparing the hospitality industries in India, Iraq, the UK, and the US, you will see that there is a consistent underrepresentation of persons from different ethnic, gender, and disability origins across all levels of the i

Pay attention to successful people, and you’ll find one single attribute they share in common. That single attribute is “hunger.” We have a lot of words used to describe the concept of hunger, like driven, ambitious, hustle , and intrinsic motivation. The root cause of hunger for success is “wanting,” it’s “desire.” There was a woman who worked for me some time ago.

When you start in sales, you need deals. One deal is as good as another deal, a perspective that is helpful because you cannot learn to sell without actually selling. As you progress in gaining sales acumen, you also acquire the business acumen and the situational knowledge necessary to winning bigger deals. You need to start targeting bigger deals, working your way up to monster deals, the opportunities that move the needle for your client, your company, and you personally.

Your prospective clients are always going to ask you if you can provide them with a lower price. Their obligation to their company is to select the right partner while also controlling their costs, not paying more than is necessary. The powers that be inside your company are doing the same thing when your sisters and brothers sell them the things they buy.

Over time, the price you charge your client is inadequate, no longer allowing you to create the value they’ve come to expect from you. All of the inputs you invest in to serve them increase over time, and at some point, you have to raise your prices, just like your client raises their rates. No one is thrilled to pay more, but they must, and you must obtain a price increase.

In business, there is both positive and negative friction. The positive friction allows for the type of conflict that moves individuals to challenge the status quo and engage in conversations about what the company might do differently now or in the future. Negative friction is the conflict that occurs under the surface, with the resistance quietly hidden from sight, often by people who have already decided to do something different even though it conflicts with the strategies and decisions the

There was a time when a post like this would be about salespeople who used high-pressure selling techniques, the hard sell and bullying to cause their polite, conflict-averse prospective clients (i.e., victims) to buy products or services under duress. The craft we call “sales” has evolved, and thankfully, the sales techniques described here are lost forever and unknown to salespeople.

Human beings are not rational. Instead, we have the power to rationalize our decisions and our actions. One of the ways we rationalize is by negotiating with ourselves, believing we won the negotiation when, in fact, we lost. The part of us that wants what we want now promises we will do something later so we can do or have what we want now. The part of you that knows you should be doing something else argues that you should delay your gratification or comfort and do hard things now, continually

Modern, professional B2B salespeople have as much in common with Blake from Glengarry Glen Ross as modern marketers have with get-rich-quick internet marketers.
