Your Weekly Bulletproof Brief

Get Out Of Your Comfort Zone Using Systems

If you sell long enough, you’ll find yourself in a sales plateau. It might be in how you prospect, drive meetings or ask for the sale, but as we become comfortable in any process, we become complacent.

One lesson we learned in the military was that we were only as strong as our weakest area. In sales, our weakest area may be finding new prospects, setting meetings, issuing purchase orders, or even in generating referrals. These weak areas force us into a ‘plateau’, and if they’re not addressed, they will slow down success.

It's all in this week's newsletter!?

Breaking Out Of Your Comfort Zone

by Shawn Rhodes, Author Of Bulletproof Selling

Once we get the hang of selling, it’s easy to put ourselves on auto-pilot – focusing on the things we’re great at and ignoring or minimizing the areas where were struggling.

One lesson we learned in the military was that we were only as strong as our weakest area. In sales, our weakest area may be finding new prospects, setting meetings, issuing purchase orders, or even in generating referrals. These weak areas force us into a ‘plateau’, and if they’re not addressed, they will slow down success.

High-performing troops take the time to assess where each member of the team may be hitting a plateau and ensure that time is spent in planning and training to address it so that when they’re on the battlefield, they’re all operating at a high level.

To learn how that type of planning and preparation would work to break a salesperson or sales team out of a plateau,?we sat down with David Schlosberg, a sales expert with Ferguson Alliance who work with tight-knit sales teams to help them continually improve.

?I can get into my CRM and look at the tasks I have and knock them out and then I can close it all down, knowing I've done everything I possibly can to move my business forward and find more people who I can make an impact in their lives and in their businesses. That’s removing hope from a sales strategy.
