    Welcome to another insightful episode of the Field Sales Leadership Guide Podcast! In this episode, Mary Keough is joined by Justin Lu, Head of Customer Success at Map My Customers, as they delve into the crucial topic of integrating technology within your company. With co-host JT unavailable, Justin steps in to share his expertise on how Map My Customers can seamlessly integrate with various technologies, especially focusing on the challenges faced by field sales teams. The conversation kicks off by highlighting the shift in the importance of integrations as technology becomes more ubiquitous. Instead of merely checking boxes for features, the focus is now on how technology aligns and works with existing systems in your company. Justin and Mary explore the impact of these integrations on outside sales teams and how they enhance the efficiency of processes. They dive into four key ways companies can integrate their tech stack effectively: Native Integration (Gold Standard): Justin explains the advantages of native integration, emphasizing how it streamlines the process by having the software vendor do the work. Matt My Customers offers native integrations with popular CRMs like Salesforce, Zoho, Dynamics, and HubSpot.Open API (Silver Standard): Justin discusses the flexibility of using an Open API, which allows integration with virtually any system that supports API connections. While it provides robust technological solutions, it may require programming knowledge and resources to set up.SFTP or CSV Upload (Bronze Standard): This method involves manually uploading data or automating the process through the Secure File Transfer Protocol. Justin shares that it's a stable solution with a daily frequency, providing a middle ground between native integration and simpler methods like CSV uploads.Zapier (Convenient Workaround): Justin introduces Zapier, a tool that enables API connections with minimal programming knowledge. While convenient for certain tasks, it may have limitations and could be less suitable for complex integrations with larger systems.The discussion emphasizes the importance of getting buy-in from the start, ensuring ease of use for sales reps, and the crucial role of managers in enforcing CRM usage. Justin concludes by highlighting the value of a well-integrated tech stack in driving sales efficiency and revenue growth.

    24. Tales from the road

    Welcome to another insightful episode of the Field Sales Leadership Guide Podcast. In this episode, JT exchanges key findings with Mary on his recent series of ride-alongs. These ride-alongs provide valuable insights into the challenges faced by outside sales reps and how sales leaders can address them. The overarching themes discovered during the ride-alongs include: Poor KPIs for Outside Sales Reps: Some sales leaders may be giving ineffective Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to their outside sales reps, leading to wasted time, expenses, and missed opportunities.Difficulty Acquiring New Business: Outside sales reps often face challenges when tasked with acquiring new business in their territories, especially in industries with steady, established customer bases. The difficulty lies in finding new prospects and converting them into customers.Underutilization of Systems: Many reps are not effectively using the systems in place, such as CRMs or sales enablement tools. This may be due to the tools not being perceived as valuable or easy to use.The effects of these challenges are significant, including a lack of valuable data needed for better decision-making at the rep, manager, and leadership levels. JT shares examples from his ride-alongs, emphasizing the importance of strategic coaching, efficient use of time, and the need for valuable data to drive revenue. Mary and JT discuss how the absence of a robust tracking system can hinder the sales process, drawing parallels with a manufacturing line that lacks stages for improvement. The episode concludes with the analogy of practicing golf swings, highlighting the importance of practicing the right things at the right time and using data to guide effective coaching and strategic management. If you're a sales leader looking to optimize your team's performance and address these challenges head-on, this episode provides valuable insights and actionable strategies.
