What are the things that negatively affect sales professionals
What are the things that negatively affect sales professionals across the globe and how can we change that?
How can we improve the lives of salespeople all over the world, and what are the factors that go in the way of their success?
It is arguable how difficult a sales job can be. When compared to other occupations, salespeople have it different. Why? For the simple reason that the main skill where salespeople tend to excel is communication – and this is different from one person to another. Even if there are established typologies regarding salespeople, it doesn’t mean they can’t be out of the ordinary and still achieve success.
To them, what matters most? There are some things that all occupations have in common, such a work atmosphere, leadership, and compensation, yet salespeople still like to do things their own way. Having strong teams and a sense of community are important to them, but they may also prefer working independently so they can put their sales abilities to use without interference.
Salespeople, on one hand, want a strong leader who can direct them, instruct them when needed, and even exert some control by setting goals and KPIs, but on the other hand, they also want some leeway to follow their gut or work with clients where their strengths shine. Regarding kpi’s, we must admit that we are not fond of them. Still, something needs to be in place to drive the action and keep track of progress. Actually, salespeople appreciate keeping track of their progress and output.
People of collectivity and in the same time people of independence, sales people are the ones that brings the business.
As a whole, salespeople all over the world face a lot of challenges. It was challenging to narrow the options down to just a handful that would be relevant across all industries, geographies, and seniority levels, but we managed to do it.
Earnings predictability—salespeople’s financial expectations are largely based on their base income, but the total worth of their compensation includes commission. But commission structures can evolve, and not always for the better. Worst case scenario: corporations can’t afford to pay their sales staff, so they have to let some go. As a result, salespeople start looking for new employment opportunities, and the process begins all over again. How much longer can this last, and what will salespeople do when they’re 45 or 50?

On one hand, recognition and associated reward has a hugely positive effect, but on the other, it may completely demotivate a salesperson. Recognition can take many forms, from openly praising accomplishment to providing clear incentives and rewards. How can demotivate? Through remaining anonymous or the success not being recognized or to have a commissioning model not associated with the effort. Certainly, there are elements here that clearly demotivates and, in the medium to long term, will force a salesperson to leave a company if their earnings are not equal to or greater than their contributions.
