In this episode of Sales [UN]Training, host Kelly Riggs tackles the challenging question: Can salespeople truly be trained? Kelly confronts the widespread belief that great salespeople are simply born, not made, by highlighting the critical role of mindset in successful sales training. Drawing on his extensive experience and research, Kelly argues that without the right mindset, even the best training programs will fall short. He compares the complexities of selling to martial arts and language learning, emphasizing the importance of consistent practice, emotional intelligence, and understanding customer motivations.
Kelly also explores essential factors that determine the success of sales training, such as the salesperson's desire, discipline, and grit. By referencing Angela Duckworth's concept of "grit," he underscores the importance of passion and perseverance in achieving sales success. Throughout the episode, Kelly provides actionable insights and strategies for transforming traditional sales training approaches to make them more effective. Whether you're a seasoned sales leader or a new salesperson, this episode offers valuable lessons on how to change your mindset and enhance your sales training and performance.
