    What does the sales force of tomorrow need?

    Effectively accompanying change

    gd_linie_orange_100x2px

     

    In recent years, the traditional field sales force has been replaced by a hybrid sales force consisting of a proactive inside sales team, online or remote selling sessions and a few on-site visits. Sales had to undergo a mental change and learn to communicate more empathetically and emotionally. Knowing your customers, their wishes and emotions and being able to respond to them is almost more important today than knowing about your own products and services.

    The Internet has made shoppers more independent. The majority of decisions are made rationally before the sales department is contacted. When the sales manager is contacted, what counts is sympathy for the company, the salesperson and the added value that both can offer. The purchase decision is made emotionally.

    The answer of modern sales is called sales enablement. On the one hand, the term stands for acquiring and imparting the necessary knowledge to be able to address interested parties correctly at every stage of the customer journey and provide them with relevant information.

    On the other hand, it refers to constant access to all content documents by sales employees and the acquisition of data-supported insights via dashboards and reports to optimize sales processes and increase sales.

    Sales success is therefore determined by the support provided by the right software, such as Gedys CRM in sales, as well as the personal skills of the employees.

    This is how useful CRM is in sales
