Sales leaders—your CRM and dashboards are probably working against you. John Sherer shares tactical ways to clean the clutter, focus on the right metrics, and finally get reports that drive action (not confusion). 🎙 ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS: Ditch filters—build dashboards with pre-saved reports so your team gets faster, cleaner insights. Delete CRM fields that aren’t reported on or are full of junk to reduce noise and confusion. Only analyze win rates on mature pipeline from prior quarters to avoid skewed conclusions. Focus on four core metrics: intro meetings, late-stage deals, win rate, and inbound vs. outbound pipeline.

FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS: Use the "Why, What, How" framework to communicate hard changes—always start with the why to reduce the shiver effect and maintain trust. Don't sugarcoat bad news—treat your team like adults, be honest about challenges, and frame positives where appropriate. Create a lever cheat sheet for your sellers so they know what they can give (discounts, services) and what to ask for in return to protect deal value. After major changes like a RIF, give the team a week to process, then reset expectations with managers leading the charge into the "new normal."

Beat your prospect to the punch with a hypothesis to steer discovery toward winnable problems. Mirror high-level goals and “before state” language to make case studies resonate more deeply.

FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS: Position yourself as a partner, not a decision-maker, during negotiations. Frame your CFO or leadership as the final approver to deflect pressure and control the conversation Use a sliding scale for discounts based on timeline. Offer steeper discounts for faster signatures to create urgency without arbitrary end-of-month pressure Steer discovery and demos toward problems that matter. Don’t get stuck solving small issues—recommend workflows tied to real business impact and executive priorities Drive deal velocity without discounting by pre-scheduling the implementation call.

ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS: Get Permission to Reframe: Before turning a perceived weakness into a strength, ask for permission to tell the story. This keeps the approach authentic and avoids sounding overly salesy. Anchor High for Multithreading: When requesting additional stakeholders, ask for more than you need. If they say no to six but yes to two, you've still gained ground. Reframe Intentional Limitations: When faced with an objection or missing feature, consider if it’s intentional by design. Reframe it as a benefit aligned with the prospect’s goals. Prep for Large Meetings: Divide the room strategically. Prep with your champion, pre-call each stakeholder, then personalize questions in the meeting to tailor the conversation.
