#agilemanifesto​ #agilesalesmanifesto​ #agilesales​ Once #Agile​ bridged the gap between #softwaredevelopment and general team #management, it was sure to spread everywhere, from #marketing all the way to accounting. One place it may work better than you would first assume is #AgileSales​. So what does #sales need from #Agile​? Why should #Agile​ be implemented into #sales? It’s all about the people. A good #AgileSales team needs to be prepared to make sharp-turn decisions and able to #implement adjustments as they’re needed, from multiple perspectives, changing their approach when it's needed with no downtime. #Sales have been needing to break free of centralized decision making, allowing them to make changes independently, as a quick turnaround is needed. Important to note are the short cycles, as opposed to long-term quotas that only serve to cause stress and don’t factor in rapid #market changes. The focus remains on people and their #workflow and allowing them the ability to change direction as needed. Manifesto for #AgileSales​ We are uncovering better ways of achieving #sales​ by doing it and helping others do it. Through this #work we have come to #value: Individuals and #interactions over processes and tools (Quota retirement) Over comprehensive #documentation Customer #collaboration over contract #negotiation #Responding to change over following a #plan That is, while there is #value in the items on the right, we #value the items on the left more. While #Agile​ was created with #Softwaredevelopment in mind, only a few changes allow it to work for back-to-back #sales. This allows #sales leaders to create #highperforming #sales teams that are accountable, engaged, and creating great #results. The goals for achieving #Agility​ in your #sales are as follows; Prioritize creating #value for the client through valuable #insights and recommendations Welcome changing requirements, even late in a #sale. Harness changes as an #advantage. #Sales teams deliver progression around the buying cycle frequently (in weeks rather than months) Clients and salespeople must work together, if possible daily, through the #sale Motivated #sales teams are given the environment and support they need and trusted to act A face-to-face conversation is the most efficient and effective form of #communication #Progression around the buying cycle is the primary measure of #progress #Agile selling promotes sustainability, with teams able to maintain a constant pace indefinitely #Continuousattention to behavioral excellence and good #salesstrategy enhances #agility​ The best understanding of needs and positioning of #solutions emerges from #selforganizing teams The team reflects regularly on how to become more effective and adjusts accordingly Globally Recognized #DigitalMarketing #Certifications: https://thedigitalmarketinginstitute.org/ INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE OF #DIGITALMARKETING ™ Learning Leaf: https://thedigitalmarketinginstitute.org/Learning-Leaf/ For Course Details: https://thedigitalmarketinginstitute.org/courses ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE OF #DIGITALMARKETING ™ is a certifying body founded in the USA by several long-standing #marketers. We have years of experience in #business, #marketing, and more, and have put forth our combined experience to develop #IIDM. #DigitalMarketing is something that’s all around us, yet there has been no solid foundation for #marketing in many, many years. In the news, there are blunders again and again by companies, failing some of the core aspects of #modernmarketing. Because of this, the need for a solid, stable foundation for #marketing in the modern world is needed-- a foundation with the ability to be built upon and developed with time. #contentmarketing #digitalmarketing #digitalmarketing #marketing #socialmediamarketing #socialmedia #business #marketingdigital #branding #seo #ins
