We all know that securing buy-in from our sales teams is crucial for hitting targets. We start with transparent communication about goals and expectations, then involve the team in setting their own targets to increase ownership. We go on to monitor achievements, reward success, and offer feedback to keep motivation high and maintain a positive sales culture. The question is - why does this work with some sales teams and not others?
This approach succeeds with teams whose values, culture, and dynamics support trust, openness, and growth. In these environments, such strategies naturally enhance engagement. However, in teams lacking these foundational elements, the same strategies may not be effective. If your team isn't demonstrating buy-in, try these three quick fixes:
Lead by example, demonstrate your commitment, and remind the team of company values and the work ethic you expect. If these efforts still don't make an impact, it may be time to engage HR to address deeper issues in team dynamics or organisational culture. Sales Office Health Checks can also help to ensure that sales processes, procedures, skillsets and strategy are right for the business and the clients you work with. If this support might benefit your business, we would be happy to help. Drop us a line to ask for further information. Speak soon, Jo
