Diagnosing Sales Problems
How to Identify and Correct the Real Root Causes Behind Sales Performance Issues
Failing to identify the true root causes of sales performance problems often leads to a frustrating game of Whack-A-Mole. Expedient fixes lead to more problems. Those problems then lead to even more duct-tape fixes. Which, in turn, cause even more serious issues. On and on, the performance symptoms just get worse because the real problems are never corrected. In this on-demand training webinar, you will learn about:
- Why there are so many effective scapegoats for the various issues and problems a marketing operation may encounter along the way.
- The most common...yet, often unrecognized...root-causes that are ultimately responsible for many sales performance symptoms.
- An incredibly straightforward diagnostic technique you can get in the habit of using to avoid jumping to simplistic conclusions.
- Numerous real-world examples of seemingly obvious sales problems that were really just symptoms of deficiencies elsewhere.
This webinar is just one of hundreds of educational resources you get access to as a Marketing Ops Journal subscriber.
