Tips for an effective sales team meeting 

  • Start the meeting with an icebreaker, a question that eases everyone into the meeting and helps build better relationships within the team.
  • Share recognition and show appreciation for your team; not only are employees highly engaged, but they also feel the appreciation from their peers too.
  • Teach your team to keep an eye on competition, not to backfire but rather to grow and learn. Have your team show up at each meeting with something they'd learnt from a competitor: their business strategy, USPs, pricing, targeted personas, or others.
  • When you have time, ask a couple of your salespeople to present their sales pitch in front of the entire team. Then go around the table/screens and collect feedback and ideas. What better opportunity than this to spot inconsistencies in pitches, refine closing pitch phrases, and share valuable experiences with others?
  • Use a sales tool to save yourself time and learn from others' experience, with this list of 53 sales automation tools across 12 categories vetted by Reply.io team to help you generate more leads, connect with them, and make more sales — all in less time.
