220 (Lead) Keeping Reps Accountable to Their Forecasts (John Sherer, Growth Assistant)
May 23, 2024•32 min
Episode description
FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS
Do a bi-weekly "pipe squeeze" (pipeline review) with each rep share your screen and take notes as you go to save time & maintain control
Discounts drive velocity, when a deal has stalled or there is no next step, use a manager email to see if a pricing incentive will move the close date
Ask the same 5 questions in deal review - Deal size, deal close date, buyer buy in, next step, and any incentives on the deal. Send the update to your leader for upward transparency
Only have reps forecast deals in pipeline for the month then run the historical math to see what may change both positive or negative
