Not every sales training needs more slides.
Sometimes, it needs better conversations.
𝗧𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸: I had the opportunity to work with a sales team from a co-working space operator. A group that already interacts with customers daily, but wanted to elevate how those conversations create value.
Instead of focusing on “what to say”, we focused on 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝘂𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀.
Here’s what we worked on together:
· Shifting from explaining products → 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀
· Structuring conversations that flow: 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁 → 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 → 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗲 → 𝗔𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗻
· Communicating value beyond features → 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀
· 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗹𝘆 using a simple but practical framework
· Handling objections without rushing into discounts
· Turning everyday interactions into real business opportunities
We achieved this through role-plays, discussions, and real-world scenarios from their day-to-day work.
👉 When sellers slow down, ask better questions, and truly listen → 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀, 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄.
Grateful for the trust, the openness, and the energy from the team.
𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 → sometimes, it just starts with a better conversation.

Sales conversations often feel like solving a puzzle.

→ You get pieces of information.
→ Some clues are clear.
→ Some clues are misleading.

Your job is to connect the dots.

Here’s a quick challenge for today.

Most sales meetings are a waste of time.
I know.
Because I used to sit through them.
When I was a salesperson, our company flew the entire sales team into HQ every month.
Flights. Hotels. Full-day meetings.
The company invested a lot of money.
We invested a lot of time.
And yet, many of us quietly felt the same thing:
This isn’t productive.
Why?
Because the entire day was mostly:
• Going around the room giving updates
• Reporting numbers that were already in the system
• Listening to long presentations
• Very little real coaching
We left with more slides.
But, not clearer decisions.
→ The same stuck deals remained stuck.
→ The same weak strategies remained weak.
And next month, we repeated it again.
That’s when I realised:
A sales meeting should not be a reporting session.
If your CRM already shows the numbers,
the meeting should focus on what the numbers don’t show.
High-performing sales meetings do three things:
1️⃣ They challenge assumptions behind key deals
2️⃣ They coach strategy in real time
3️⃣ They force clear decisions before people leave the room
If no behaviour changes after the meeting,
the meeting was theatre.
Not leadership.
Sales meetings should create momentum, not maintain routine.
If you lead a sales team:
What’s one thing you’ve changed to make your meetings more effective?
