In today's economic climate, cross-selling and upselling have become more challenging due to the budget constraints of customers. While gaining new customers is always a positive outcome for any organization, the ability of your sales representatives to sell additional products or services to existing customers is often the key to meeting your revenue targets consistently. Unfortunately, many sales leaders may instruct their teams to pull resources from existing accounts in an effort to meet quarterly goals, without equipping them with the necessary tools and strategies to succeed in upselling. This can lead to disorganized sales behavior and increased discounts, creating unnecessary stress for managers and sales representatives alike as they try to close deals that are not yet fully developed.
