#803: Why Sales Training Doesn't Work
Listen now
Description
In this episode, Bill and Bryan challenge conventional wisdom by arguing that traditional sales training is no longer effective in today's business landscape. Drawing from their decades of experience, they discuss why common sales methodologies fall short and why focusing solely on "getting to yes" is a flawed approach. The guys explore why companies default to sales training when results are lacking, the limitations of one-size-fits-all training programs, and how younger generations like Millennials and Gen Z are changing the sales game. They emphasize the need for a more holistic, authentic approach to sales achievement and explain why running your sales territory "like a business" is crucial but rarely taught. And offer fresh perspectives on what truly drives sales success in the modern era, suggesting it's time for a paradigm shift in how we approach sales development and training.  ================================= Is it time to make a BOLD move in your business?
