With clear advice, guidance and special guests, Marginal Gains, Maximum Profit is here to help sales professionals make simple, key changes that generate better results – in any economy!
Join Jess Lorimer and Robert Cutler of Selling to Corporate as they analyse the market and show you how to navigate mindset changes, new lead generation strategies, hiring ‘how-to’s and of course, those strategic sales techniques to see you into your next promotion.
This episode focuses on one of the biggest issues we’re hearing in the market at the moment which is a lack of real, quality Leads. How can we generate more? Why are we not making the most of the leads we have?
Throughout this episode, Jess and Rob talk about the Lead Generation process, how Technology is both helping and hindering leads – if you don’t have a clear market map – and how you can get new staff up to speed.
In this key phase as the furlough scheme draws down to a close and business gets back to 100%, how can you and your sales team take this opportunity to grow and increase revenue.
