If you think auditing your sales team is a waste of time and money, think about whether you think the lack of results for the year is a waste of time and money?
There is a concept of “seeing the trees but not noticing the forest”. This is roughly the behaviour of people who have gone headlong into the operational management of a business. Their eyes are washed out, and apart from the current tasks, they do not see their own prospects. They don’t pay attention on sales team analysis. This is why it is necessary to conduct an audit of the sales department.
In our work, we often encounter this response from a potential client:
“Thank you for the offer for our sales department analysis. But we don’t need an audit. We need orders. We don’t have enough orders.”
And today I came across a post by a fellow colleague:
“The project has been going around big business for the second year: presentations, talks, ‘wow’ reactions, everyone wants it. The results: a couple of pilot projects and a complete lack of sales.
On the proposal to hire a specialized consultant who will set up a sales system and find a point of interaction with the market in 3 months, he replies: “with a consultant I will lose time and money”.
It is interesting that he does not identify the lack of results for a year as a loss of time and money”.
The situations are different, but the essence is the same:
“We have no time to think and analyze some sales team results. We have to work more“.
How many millions are lost every month just because people do not have time and do not want to, they are afraid to stop to assess the situation, to identify weaknesses, to eliminate mistakes.
And it would be all right if they don’t have enough time themselves, but they refuse help.
We work, we work, there is no time to think.
Some business owners are not ready for radical changes: better bad than nothing. But how long will this inertia last?
Do not be like Sisyphus, rolling a stone to the top of the mountain. Allow an outside expert to look at the situation in your company.
Order the most minimal audit package and you will already at the initial stage get an outside opinion on what you are distracted and wasting your time on. You will see what is preventing you from developing, and together we will work out ways to remedy the situation.
The methodologies we apply are used to evaluate performance in large multinational companies.
