Learn to See Hidden Value-Creating Opportunities
Many process excellence leaders would like to help their sales organizations overcome their obstacles and achieve their goals. Yet, sales and marketing is different world than manufacturing production. There are reasons salespeople resist process approaches, and it can be difficult to deal with these challenges if you don't have the background you need.
However, once you learn the differences and gain some experience, you can multiply your impact (and your value) as a process professional.
In fact in most businesses, there is more potential for improving growth and profitability in sales and marketing than there is in production.
That’s because the same kinds of methods that work in operations don't just eliminate waste and cost of sales. They also increase revenue and margins and make it possible to manage and predict business growth. Supporting your business as it begins thinking this way is an opportunity for process excellence professionals like you.
I am a former B2B sales manager, sales trainer, and the author of "Sales and Marketing the Six Sigma Way" (4.5 stars on Amazon). My team and I have blazed a trail demonstrating that data and evidence can be used to increase revenue, lower costs, shorten sales cycles, motivate salespeople, and improve sales channels.
Done correctly, standard work and continuous improvement appeals to the professionalism and ambition of sales teams, and to senior management as well.
