How to Respond
    Think beyond “the classroom”
    •   Eliminate travel as a requirement
    •   Traditional sales learning is ineffective
        on its own
        •   87% of skills learned are lost in the
            first month without reinforcement
    •   Expensive = Low ROI
    •   Not preferred by sales people


    View sales learning as a process, not an event
        •   On-demand tools to help the sales person in their daily selling
        •   Management reinforcement
        •   Executive sponsorship

The Story of 2008 and 2009
    • Pressures on sales person productivity
      • Form-filling and manual processes
      • Spreadsheet hell
      • Report creation
      • Forecast scheduling
    • Pressures on sales manager core competence
      • Chasing reports and forecasts
      • Working off lagging indicators
      • Tendency to over- or micro-manage
      • No time or insight for proactive coaching

The Oracle View – Seven Tips for 2010




11                      © The TAS Group 2009
Key #1 – Overhaul sales methodology
     • Target Account Selling is the world’s leading
       methodology, with over 650,000 converts
     • Better win rate, deal size and reduce sales cycle
     • 88% improvement in quota achievement
     • Integrated methodology and process increases
       CRM adoption by 44%
     • Automation drives sustained success through
       reinforcement, versus event-based training




12                          © The TAS Group 2009
Key #2 – Embed best practices into selling
     • Replicate behavior of your top performers
     • Instill a sales process which reflects your
       customers’ buying process
     • Automation ensures uniform application of best
       practice
     • Managers can focus on driving growth rather than
       trying to understand sales problems
     • Reduce sales force turnover by 33%
     • Make everyone better, not just your stars



13                           © The TAS Group 2009
Key #3 – Optimize Forecasting Accuracy
     • Forecast and pipeline analysis is difficult
     • You can’t manage what you can’t measure
     • Objectivity, rules, algorithms and standardization
       increases forecasts accuracy
     • Automation takes this exercise away from the
       sales rep and gives visibility to the manager
     • Optimizing forecast accuracy brings confidence




14                            © The TAS Group 2009
Achieving True Sales Performance Automation

     • Use the power of sales methodology and process
     • Goals for SPA
       • Substantially and measurably improve revenue
         performance of individuals and entire team
       • Ensure uniform application of best practices
       • Generate reliable, accurate forecasts automatically
       • Sustain long-term performance improvement
