In this Quick Take episode, we’re exploring the undeniable power of sales coaching, the challenges of traditional approaches, and how AI-powered solutions are setting a new standard for skill development.

There are no two ways about it: sales coaching is helpful for driving performance in any sales team. Its benefits are well-documented, with consistent coaching leading to improvements in both individual and team productivity.

When was the last time that someone sat you down, focused all their attention on you, and talked to you about the things that you do really well?
Still thinking?
It’s usually hard to pinpoint the last time that happened because, for most of us, it doesn’t happen very often.
Unless you are an NFL football player, then the last time would have been Monday morning, and it would have gone something like this (imagine dreamlike music).

Every company has an online brand, whether it’s crafted intentionally or shaped by external perceptions.
If you're unsure of your company’s brand, do a quick Google search and look at the reviews. Websites like Glassdoor and other employment platforms can offer valuable insights into how your company is perceived.
Ask yourself: Does your company appear inviting to potential candidates?
If not, this could explain the lack of qualified applicants when you have job openings. In today’s uncertain job market, companies with a strong, well-defined employer brand are flooded with applications, while those with a mediocre or negative reputation struggle to attract talent.

Let’s cut straight to it: Talent is something you’re born with.
You can’t create, mold, or magically inject it into someone. You either have it or you don’t. As much as we love a good rags-to-riches story, the truth is, talent can’t be trained into someone—it’s hardwired. And if you’re trying to force a square peg into a round hole by “developing talent” in someone who simply doesn’t have it, you're setting yourself up for disappointment.
Improve your sales performance. Sales managers can gain unique perpsectives on hiring and developing more effective sales teams. Salespeople can improve their approach to getting more appointments with target prospects, uncovering desired business results, and engaging clients in a collaborative process that leads to the sale.
