6. Leadership
In my career I’ve consistently and continuously
found ways to improve the performance of my
teams by providing them with value added
resources
Resources fall in two primary categories
Customer facing processes
Back office processes
7. Leadership
Customer facing
While most salespeople don’t want to admit it, everyone is
better with a script. The trick is to know your script so well it
sounds like a conversation.
I’ve work with my teams – especially inexperienced reps or
those new to sales – so they realize they need to internalize
their scripts. I share this example:
“Think about the character Johnny Depp plays in Pirates of the
Caribbean. You may not like him as an actor, but you can easily
identify the character. Why is that? Did he wake up one
morning and decide to be a pirate? Did he make up all the lines
in the movie so he sounded natural saying them? No, he had a
script and he rehearsed it hundreds of times until he became the
character. This is what we do as salespeople to effectively sell.
You need to take your script, learn it, make it your own.
8. Leadership
Customer facing
Presentations (scripts) are “plug-n-play” ready for
the customer with minimal customization required
9. Leadership
Customer facing
Once the presentation is finished my team has tools
to present the value proposition to the customer
Solutions are often custom tailored to the particular client
and the value proposition will include specific costs/cost
reductions or process improvements that encompass the
total value for the customer
First example page
Many times the solution is high level and simply focuses on
the bottom line costs associated with the partnership

know why I want to say it
and I know what I want
the outcome to be once
I’ve delivered my

Back office processes
My primary responsibility is to be a sales leader; to educate, motivate,
develop, focus and support my team to assist them in producing at
the highest levels possible.
When I need to develop tools to support my team I have the aptitude to
leverage technology
I’ve been fortunate to have a great set of professionally developed
applications to help my teams over the years, however there are
always opportunities to provide additional value
At times I’ve identified a need for additional support, typically either:
Strategic territory tools
An Excel workbook to evaluate KPIs and format data for easier review
An Access database to automate or improve a process

One of the main challenges to maximizing selling during
golden hours is using time effectively, so using

Excel
Here are just two examples of the process improvements
made using Excel
I consolidated the Salesforce.com data into a graphical
dashboard for management. This provide rep-by-rep KPIs
on a scorecard that is simple to use.
I automated the new order process, moving from a hand
written form to a spreadsheet
Many of the items either fill in automatically or there is
error checking to reduce costly mistakes
All forms are now in a single location, reducing the
chance for incomplete paperwork
