Absolutely! I've been noticing an increasing number of clients who are on the lookout for sales reps, particularly in the B2B sector. Some clients are streamlining their sales operations though and, interestingly, I'm seeing a lot more interest in automation, too.

There is a demand for senior sales reps in our industry. Sales reps with strong business acumen, industry experience, trusted relationships, and ability to align technology solutions to business needs. We just hired a senior sales rep from SAP, and hiring another from ServiceNow in Q1 2024, both with 20+ years of sales experience. Our partners are doing the same, and budgeting growth in their salesforce for 2024. Thanks.

Does anyone have best practices, sample agendas, or PPT templates for a monthly Sales War Room call focused on high-probability opportunities closing in the current month? We’re planning for frontline sales managers to walk through their top opportunities, with Sr. Leadership and Operations present for any critical asks. This call will focus solely on driving revenue and won't duplicate QBRs (market trends, competitive analysis, SWOTs). Sales Ops will create the slide deck, including YTD rep plan attainment, a heat map of open territories/reps below plan, and leading KPIs (sales cycle, pipeline metrics). The deck will go out a week prior for managers to prepare. Thanks in advance!

Almost too many to list. I believe original content — written, photos, and videos — are all but certain to become widely synthetic. Perhaps people will do some humanizing of the content but most of it will be artificially ...read more
