We're approaching the halfway mark of the year (already!), will you hit your goals? At the beginning of the year, most of us had goals set for the next 12 months. There was a certain excitement in the air and the feeling of "anything is possible" in the minds of many sellers. However, flash forward a few months later, and many of those goals have already fallen by the wayside.

Your mindset is typically one of two things. It can either be one of your greatest tools or one of your worst obstacles. The good news is you get to choose which side of the spectrum your mindset sits. If there’s one quality every successful salesperson can share, it’s their overall mindset for success.

Do you ever feel as though you're not doing quite enough for your clients? You've delivered everything that you promised to deliver, and the client seems to be happy with the services and products you have provided them. Still, you just can't shake this feeling that not enough is being offered to them by you and your team.

Want more sales? Of course you do. When you ask the typical seller how to create more sales, the mantra is generally to work harder, to grind more, or to double or triple the current efforts.

Are you a sales road warrior? Every week I'm asked about travel tips, recommended hotels, airlines, and locations.

It is common for me to get questions like, "How do I get my sellers to reach their sales goals?" Here's my answer.

If there's one habit that will make your sales team successful, it's this one. Get your sales team to do this each day.

It's one of the questions I receive the most often...how can a salesperson overcome those dreaded pricing objections? It's interesting that this comes up so often, because it seems to me that more often than not, most salespeople are looking at pricing objections from the wrong perspective. In fact, these common objections often have nothing at all to do with price! Let me explain.

The weakest part of the sales cycle can create havoc in a sales rep's short-term and long-term sales success. The good news? It can easily be fixed too.

We're in Q4! This can bring feelings of anxiety for many salespeople, especially if they're behind target. Don't worry! There's still time to end the year on target..or even exceed it!
