Reducing Overall Costs by Using Inside Sales Teams
December 9, 2010
Combining inside sales with a complex sales process seems daunting – but it’s quite doable.
Even some professionals may lack an in-depth understanding of this subject, making them unable to execute a profitable inside sales strategy. You need to have a sales methodology that has a mindset akin to more typical field sales mantras.
The advantages of utilizing insides sales are diverse and plentiful. The most obvious benefit that you would gain is rapidity. You’ll simply be able to tend to more prospects in a shorter amount of time because you won’t have that face-to-face commitment at this current stage. As far as the necessary skills for the job are concerned, you’ll be able to use hunters instead of closers; people who specialize in tracking down prospects, moving them through the sales funnel and improving your product positioning.
Relatively speaking, inside sales, in the right setting, can offer a ton of upside with few drawbacks. Watch the full video from Selling Power for more information on the subject of inside sales.
