Q: How do you make your sales team effective?
The best way to drive sales team performance is to have 1–2 folks on the team just making lots of money from closing lots of deals.

Yes, sales reps can be a bit lazy.
Yes, they can blame marketing or competition or whatever for not closing.
Yes, they can talk a lot about “pipeline” without closing anything.
But at the end of the day, sales is hard. Sales is a lot of No’s. You have to believe. You have to believe it can be done. And it’s easy to get discouraged.
And when you see a couple of folks ringing the bell every day, making tons of money, and having a good time doing it … that drives the rest of the team.
And over time, it also attracts more top reps to your team.
