Summary
Tip #1: Personalize Your Sales Outreach to Avoid Robotic Messaging
"People will know when something’s generated by a computer system. We want them to know we’re behind the message."
Generic, robotic messages turn people off quickly. To stand out, embed personal details and follow up with human interactions like phone calls or face-to-face meetings. This reestablishes trust and makes the prospect feel valued beyond automated scripts.
Tip #2: Return to Relationship-Based Selling
"We’re getting back to what was the last networking event you went to... how do I build stronger relationships?"
Despite the rise of digital sales tools, relationship selling remains critical. Genuine connections built through networking events and direct interactions are powerful drivers of long-term success, making the difference between transactional and lasting sales.
Tip #3: Prioritize Training and Development to Build Strong Foundations
"Nothing stronger than a structure of a sales presentation... when you’re comfortable with it, you can follow the customer anywhere."
Continuous training, even for experienced reps, is essential. A solid sales presentation framework builds confidence and flexibility, allowing salespeople to guide conversations effectively and adapt to customer needs without losing control.
Tip #4: Never Get Complacent — There’s Always Room for Improvement
"If you have a strong sales team, they can always improve, they can do more."
Successful teams are never done learning. Maintaining a growth mindset and encouraging ongoing development helps salespeople avoid stagnation and stay motivated to reach new heights.
Tip #5: Reinforce Prospecting as a Key Activity
"We’re weaker today because we haven’t been doing as much prospecting... we have to stay involved with the cold calling."
Prospecting is fundamental to a healthy sales pipeline. Consistent outreach, including cold calls, keeps opportunities flowing and prevents droughts, ensuring sales reps are always engaging with potential clients.
Tip #6: Focus Your Day on the Highest-Impact Activities
"Make a list of the things you have to do to have a successful day... do the top three things that produce the greatest positive results."
Time management is about discipline and clarity. By prioritizing tasks that drive the most results and avoiding distractions, salespeople can maximize productivity and close more deals efficiently.
Tip #7: Don’t Be Afraid to Ask for Help
"We all get stuck — even top salespeople... ask for help to move the needle forward."
Seeking external perspectives or assistance can break mental blocks and improve performance. Collaboration and mentorship are valuable tools for overcoming obstacles and accelerating growth.
Tip #8: Delegate to Build Momentum on Key Priorities
"Top sales reps don’t want others to handle things, but you need to start delegating to focus on what drives results."
Effective delegation frees up time for strategic activities. Sales leaders who delegate routine tasks enable themselves and their teams to concentrate on high-value actions that lead to sales success.
Tip #9: Maintain Consistent Daily Action to Achieve Goals
"It’s the action takers who take daily consistent action towards their goals that dominate their space."
Success in sales is built on consistent effort over time. Reps who commit to daily habits and reps—whether prospecting, presentations, or follow-ups—create momentum that compounds into lasting achievement.
Tip #10: Use Structured Techniques Like the Systematic Attitude Development Technique
"Unstoppable is about taking action when you’re stuck, moving from emotion to logic, and staying focused on your goals."
Having a repeatable process to manage attitude and motivation helps salespeople navigate rejection and challenges. This technique encourages logical action and sustained focus, both critical for long-term sales success.
