Managing the Enterprise Sales Process
The sales cycle is the formalized information exchange between a customer and a salesperson. It consists of a series of steps that are designed to gather information about the customer and present information about the salesperson’s solution. Successful salespeople enhance this process by drawing upon their intuition and past sales experiences. In this session we’ll map out these intuitive models for working deals so that they can be understood and internalized by the entire team.
