Episode 201 - Mastering the Transition: From Salesperson to Sales Manager

This is another big mistake I see business owners making over and over again.

It’s where they promote a great sales person into a sales manager position.

The instant problem this creates is the salesperson often has no idea how to be a great sales manager, and sadly being a great salesperson offers little or any advantage.

The upshot for the business is they lose a great salesperson (plus the revenue hole this creates) and they get a very average sales manager.

There is a way to do this though, so if you are a sales person wanting to make the switch to management or you are a business owner who wants to help a high performing sales person make the switch, this will be well worth a listen.
