It’s not uncommon for revenue to slide. It happens to all sales organizations at one time or another. Revenue being down, isn’t the most difficult problem. Knowing why revenue is down and where to look is the biggest challenge. When sales are down there are only 4 levers leadership can pull to improve sales.

Problems cause the pipeline to get backed up. Problems create declines in revenue. Problems keep processes from working the way they should. Problems keep our customers from growing their business. Problems keep us from closing the deal. Problems keep us from beating the competition. Problems create acrimony on the team.

Commitments have been made to the street, a new product with substantial investment behind it “must” needs to generate so much revenue, potential suitors need to see x amount of revenue. Need driven quotas are the result of someone, or some group NEEDING the revenue. Existing Pipeline. Sales Investments.

Your plan needs to require massive action in response to the crisis that causes a loss or reduction of sales. There are only four ways to grow revenue, and you should use as many of them as possible, starting with selling more to your existing clients, communicating with them at a higher frequency, and making sure you retain them.

Your sales processes and methodologies are only suggestions if you allow them to be. Even though the sales conversation is nonlinear , it doesn’t mean that you should skip good discovery and the consensus that is now required if you want to win deals. If you want a pipeline , you first need accountability. Reaching Goals.

They spend more time with your sales people than anyone else in the company. They lead the pipeline review meetings. A lot of love is given to the sales leaders, the CSO’s, the XVP’s of sales because they are high-profile, drive strategy and have tremendous formal authority. Sales is a tough business.

Going into the world and displacing competitors, creating new opportunities, winning those opportunities, retaining clients, and growing revenue isn’t easy under the best of circumstances, let alone adding to it unforced errors. There are no pipeline meetings, and if there are, they would be more accurately called mini-opportunity reviews.

Increase your average revenue per deal. Ignore your pipeline. The pipeline is your lifeline. The pipeline will tell you a lot. Don’t ignore your pipeline. Take control of the sales environment. But like most things, there is almost always a diamond in the rough. Look for hidden opportunities.
