An integrated approach to sales and marketing is critical to the success of any company. To affect the most efficient change, there are three crucial areas that need to be investigated to integrate sales and marketing efforts. The trick, of course, is knowing the right questions to ask and then to objectively use this information to improve your situation.
Your Sales Booster Diagnostic Set contains diagnostics on these three key areas and will help you ask the right questions and discover the right answers. Additionally, because it is so important that your results are objectively assessed, we've included a one-hour consultation as part of the program. Your Sales Booster package contains:
- How to Increase Sales through Teamwork
This diagnostic is designed to illustrate the need for both the sales and marketing functions to work as a team. The results of this diagnostic tool will provide immediate suggestions on how to strengthen the relationship between sales and marketing and may help identify other issues that are having an effect on organizational success.
- Setting Quantifiable Sales Goals
Teamwork is built on the foundation of achieving common goals, not those of the individual. If goals and objectives frequently change—or there aren’t substantive reasons why certain goals exist—people will be more likely to impose their own view on the situation and pursue personal goals. This diagnostic will help you create quantitative sales goals that are fair and productive. You will learn how to create a multiple-goal sales chart and use a worksheet that will outline other quantitative tasks that will lead to successful sales, including suggestions on pipeline management.
- Stay On Message: Creating Consistent Messaging & Why it Matters
This is one of the first areas that begins to drive marketing and sales apart. The sales team is trying to close the deal anyway possible, message and rules be damned; marketing is working on crafting a specific package, regardless of the present environment. Ensuring that sales and marketing are together and "on message" should be a key area of focus if you want to integrate your teams. The most effective way to get the message consistent is to get your sales team integrated into your marketing strategy as soon as possible. Specifically, get them integrated into the communication mix. This diagnostic tool is designed to help you do just that.
