None of us, no matter our success, is a finished product. Professional growth isn’t achieved; it’s developed. It is cumulative – bit by bit, little by little over time. It is an active, always-on process.
That is especially true in sales, where ongoing training is key to building a team that delivers predictable, scalable, and sustainable deals. Every rep, regardless of skill, level, or close rate, has room for growth and can benefit from continued reinforcement and refinement.
Many organizations don’t need to be sold on the merits of sales training. They’ve actively invested in it before or have considered implementing a program. It’s the long-term success of the typical program that gives them pause – the further reps get from the training, the less likely they are to apply the skills learned and revert to old habits.
That’s where the emphasis on “ongoing” becomes critical. To maximize effectiveness and impact, training can’t be a one-off event or even an annual commitment. It must be continuous. But sales leaders simply don’t have the capacity to consistently monitor every rep’s progress and performance within the framework and provide regular, meaningful feedback on how to improve.
