You can always expect challenges to arise when training a sales team, and when they do, things can go south quickly. Some reps simply don’t ramp as fast as others.

How can you ramp your team in half the time? Let’s revisit episode 1610 with Jennifer Smith, co-founder and CEO of Scribe, to find out.

Scale Yourself

  • Scaling yourself is about identifying the core things you are good at and spending as much time on them as possible. Take the other tasks that fill your time and reduce them, automate them, or delegate them.
  • Jennifer challenges you to track how many interruptions you have and how much time you spend on various tasks during an average day. Those minutes add up.

Get People The Things They Need

  • Get the right information to the right people at the right time so they can use their time effectively.

Scale Your Best Rep

  • Have your best reps, the people who have been there the longest and know what they are doing, record how they do what they do.
  • Share this information with the rest of your reps so that they can learn from the information and knowledge that makes your best rep really good. 
  • If all the reps are able to share with each other what is working, everyone will learn together to create a rapid learning machine. 

“If you’re doing anything that doesn’t involve talking to a customer, ask yourself: could I scale this?” — Jennifer Smith
