    E188: Why Sales People Think They are Following a Sales Process — But Really Aren't (And How to Fix It)

    Do you really have a sales process… or are you and your team just winging it? Most business and sales leaders confidently say they have a sales process. It’s written down. The team knows what to do. Conversions are “okay.” But when you zoom in, what often shows up is variation, inconsistency, and deals being handled differently depending on the day, the rep, or the mood. If you’ve ever wondered why your close rate sits at 20–30%… why performance varies across your team… or why improving results feels harder than it should — this episode will challenge the assumption that “we’ve got a process.” Because having experience is not the same as having a repeatable system. In this episode, you’ll discover: How to pressure-test whether you truly have a sales process or just accumulated experienceThe exact five stages you should document to create consistency and lift conversion ratesA simple, practical way to build a one-page sales process that improves performance by 2–10% (and compounds over time) If you want to turn small improvements into massive long-term revenue gains, hit play now and learn how to build a sales process that actually works.
