Leading a sales team is a VERY different job than selling
So how did you even get to be a sales leader?
Maybe you were a great salesperson, and your hard work and results were rewarded with a leadership role. Or, perhaps you’re the company founder, and you instinctively know how to sell your own product or service, but now you have to build a sales team.
Sure, you might luck out and find a rep rock star that knocks it out of the park. But that kind of success doesn’t scale.
The responsibility for ongoing, sustainable success ultimately falls on YOU.
To get consistent success from your team will take something.
They expect you to have a proven strategy, a clear plan, engaging training, and ongoing coaching.
There will be daily challenges, questions, frustrations, and triumphs. And if your reps don’t succeed, the rapid turnover will cause you to spend more time on recruiting and training than on managing and leading.
But hey…you can always compare notes with all the other sales managers there, right?
Oh wait…there aren’t any.
You’re the only one there that does this, and no one else there truly understands what it’s like to manage salespeople.
THERE'S AN OLD PROVERB....
“If you want to go fast, go alone.
If you want to go far, go with others.”

Online Sales Manager Community
Sometimes the best insights come from hearing other people’s war stories. We see ourselves in their situations. Sometimes there’s a lesson to learn, and sometimes it’s just nice to know you’re not the only one dealing with the same situation.
Sales managers at different companies rarely get the chance to connect with each other to talk shop. We provide that opportunity, and also participate in and contribute to the discussions.
