The CEO’s Top 4 Concerns About Sales

Many people seek to understand the roles of the salesperson and the sales manager, but it isn’t often that the role of a CEO is discussed. John Flannery discusses a CEO’s top four concerns about sales in this #SalesChat, hosted by John Golden and Martha Neumeister.

Flannery explains:

• The top concerns that a CEO has about the sales function, including that sales cannot keep up with corporate strategy, and that salespeople can’t discover and address the problems of the organization and take steps to fix those problems
• The rate of adoption of the corporate strategy, and ensuring it is clearly communicated throughout the entire organization
• Ensuring that sellers understand the goals the CEO has for the organization
• Creating a multi-touch approach of articulating company strategy multiple times in order to ensure it is adopted by the organization
• The concerns that CEO’s have about the message that salespeople are conveying to customers
• How to get individuals to understand the appropriate roles in the buying process
• Building a prospect profile to create targeted ideal markets
• Ensuring that salespeople properly communicate information about the product, and how it can solve problems, to the customer
• The four main concerns that CEO’s have: Are salespeople executing quickly enough? Are they diagnosing the problems and business issues? Can they tell the story? Are they calling high enough in the organization?
• How to manage upwards
