The outside sales world offers abundant opportunities to reinvent your approach and grow your business, but success requires building a strong foundation that can withstand market changes and client turnover. • Without the right foundation, your territory becomes vulnerable like a house of cards • There's no such thing as status quo in sales – you're either growing or shrinking • Recurring revenue models allow you to stack clients and grow more quickly than one-time sales • Becoming the go-to expert means understanding how to elevate your buyer's future state • Decision-makers constantly ask colleagues for referrals, making word-of-mouth invaluable • Most important business decisions happen when you're not in the room • Being recognized as an industry expert attracts warm leads and opportunities • Small adjustments to your approach, presentation or appearance can enhance credibility If you want to know more about becoming a go-to expert in your field, please reach out to me at mike@survivingoutsidesales.com or DM me on LinkedIn for a free consultation.
