SELLING REMOTELY

A salesperson’s guide to WFH/RTO

RepVue, a company that provides resources, jobs, and other materials specifically for sales teams and sales reps, penned this great piece last year about how Sales reps and leaders should navigate remote work or the return-to-office.

The biggest challenge remote work presents to sales teams is when managers need to evaluate mid-level talent. It’s not always easy just to look at numbers and evaluate a sales rep’s potential. And for sales reps working remotely, it’s even more important to consistently update the CRM, so there’s no question about your sales activity if anyone in leadership gets curious.

It’s a great read for anyone in sales, especially those navigating a remote environment.

And remember: measuring outputs is always the best strategy.

“Regardless of where you work, sales success is ultimately measured by results — deals closed, revenue generated — not hours spent at a desk. Reps who consistently deliver results will have the freedom to work where they’re most productive.”
