Often times during my Quid Pro Quo™ Sales Training workshops, sales reps complain that they just can't seem to fill their pipeline with leads ending in sales results. The market out there is changing and very competitive.
First, to be successful in today's selling environment, you need to ask yourself - Are you:
Flexible- Adaptable- Open Minded-Thinking Out of the Box???

Next, are you taking control of all the conditions and actions leading to your success through self qualified sales opportunities? Are you building a strong pipeline through self-marketing?
Here are a few lead generation ideas for self-marketing that you can put to use immediately:

Referrals - good referrals have the shortest and easiest sales cycle and generally result in business/revenue.
Writing - Getting articles written and placed, developing a blog can help you be perceived as the expert in your market place.
Seminars - You can market yourself through seminars as they are a very effective way to reach potential clients in a short period of time.
Learn how to maximize the equation for success -
Activity x Time = Results
Results: You Take Ownership of Your Sales Success
Sales training can help you learn and practice these methods for increasing your ability to generate your own leads and control your destiny through your self generated sales opportunities.

Executing Positive Change to Get Results in a Down Economy" offers effective strategies that should be employed by organizations and individuals when things get tough.
