CRM software, our CEO believes, has a major part to play in improving business worldwide. (“The entrepreneurial spirit is strong in this one…” to misquote Yoda). Nikolaus has made believers out of our team, and this reference library is a first step toward a much more extensive sales education initiative.
The library includes broad business topics as they relate to sales. A recently-added title, Evolution in Progress: How the Entrepreneur Is Changing the World, is authored by Nikolaus, and many other ebooks address more specialized topics. Examples of other titles: Sales Process: Empowering Sales, Management and the Company, Pipeline Measurement and Sales Success, Sales Systems Insight Selling, Choosing and Implementing CRM, Sales Force Education, and Lead Management.

The New Buyer Mandates Sales Expertise
The advent of automation means that a salesperson must be more of a sales expert than previously. In consumer sales, most purchasing is automated with very little human interaction. However, in corporate sales, the role of a salesperson is that of a consultant. Traditional interruption techniques (such as cold-calling) are less effective. Content marketing has changed the way prospects find information and decide what products and services they need. Finally, social search has allowed prospects to instantly get feedback, opinions and recommendations from other customers. In order to compete in this changing landscape, the salesperson must have a high level of expertise to gain the prospect’s trust in the company, the product, and the salesperson themselves.
Lately, things move so quickly that sales professionals can’t keep up. We don’t want anyone to be left behind.
Soon we will share our shelves with many partners, friends, and blog contributors. We invite you to visit the reference library and download all the rich content you can carry.
