View event detailsForecasting & Pipeline Management
The ‘typical’ sales person in popular culture is often seen as someone who just wants to ‘get out there’ and ‘sell’, or to look after their clients/prospects. They object to the tedium of inputting data, or following what they see as strict bureaucratic guidelines on exactly how to do this. The sales/team leader has the unenviable task of trying to entice or enforce his maverick team members to toe the line. When sales people do complete their pipeline there are multiple reasons why it may be unreliable and inaccurate. This session will demonstrate to sales/team leaders and individual sales people [whether they are pure sellers, BDMs or Account Executives] the vital importance of effective pipeline management in ALL of their roles, and some effective strategies and tips for achieving it.
