Increase Sales Performance

Sales growth from improved sales force performance

The Difference between Marketing and Sales

One of the world’s leading exponents of marketing is quoted as saying, “Good marketing makes selling unnecessary”.

At Launch Engineering, we apply marketing science to sales management, but with a bit of art, the benefit of hard earned grey hair, and a ‘bucket-load’ of street-wise, common sense. [For the Definition of Marketing CLICK HERE]

We can quickly assess whether you need to improve selling or sales support!

The payback is maximum return on investment from sales and marketing spending, saving (and making) you more money.

Sales & Selling

There is no more important issue in sales management than making sure every sales executive ‘fires’ at optimal level all the time.

Traditionally, this is done by investing in professional sales training courses or training days to equip sale staff with professional selling skills and motivate and inspire them to perform at the best of their ability.

This is expensive, eats into precious selling time, and ‘wears off’ after training... you can talk to Launch Engineering how to remove these costs and generate entrenched sales excellence with on-site, 15-minute regular training sessions. They allow executives to assimilate and utilise a skill at a time, and maintain enthusiasm and energy, continuously optimising sales performance.

Increase Sales with Smart Marketing

Every executive responsible for sales, wants great sales, extraordinary sales, record-breaking sales. How to get better sales is what drives, them, preoccupies them and interests them. Profitable sales as easily as possible.

That is why the science of “marketing” came to be. Economics couldn’t explain. Accounting couldn’t predict. Finance couldn’t pioneer... “Marketing” was born out of the School of Economics when Industry said…

"We want to find out why sales progress, and how to reproduce sales successes."

In the 60’s Marketing 'science' was really born… and practical, industry-sponsored studies quickly identified key models and concepts that became cornerstone to modern commercial success: Everyday-tools to business strategists and marketing directors of successful companies around the world. A database of all the profit-making secrets was even built, called “The PIMS Database” (Profit Impact of Marketing Strategies).

Sales Training that works in the 21st Century

For sales people to be productive nowadays, they need more than pushy sales techniques, standard warm-up to feature/function/benefit pitches and repetitive, high pressure closes...

Sales training should include awareness of buyer behaviour characteristics in YOUR industry, they need to be conscious of buying DMG (decision making groups) within clients companies, they need to know competition better than the competitor does, and certainly better than the prospective client!

Launch Engineering trainers can empower your sales people with insight and understanding that other, old fashioned sales trainers and most off-the-shelf sales training packages simply don't acknowledge, let alone address.

But a significant BONUS of using Launch Engineering is that your sales PROCESSES are observed and marketing issues indentified, with corresponding feedback for sales managers as to management initiatives that can have sweeping and formidable sales results.

Professional Sales DESERVE expert marketing help

In some companies, Marketing is perceived to be the provider of PR, announcements, meetings, product training, brochure-ware, web support etc. as if these are all a salesman needs!

If that is ALL 'marketing' is, then who looks after...

  • what accounts, industries and channels to sell to, and why,
  • what tactics to use to outsell competitors,
  • what new products should be developed, and when, and how, and why
  • how to price, package, position and manage the whole product portfolio
  • what the optimal customer oriented Value Proposition should be,
  • what forecasted sales to expect for production and financial management,
  • what business problems to anticipate and how to deal with them if they arise
  • how to help the sales force excel, with what type of sales support that WILL WORK

In different organisations these may or may not provided by 'marketing'. Despite 100 years of empirical study, sometimes 'marketing' departments don't even employ a single marketing-qualified employee!

Sales executives are (almost without exception) the highest marketing promotional cost. Are you REALLY doing everything possible to maximise the return you get from that expenditure?

"Don't talk to me about marketing... just get out there and sell!" Herman Izenberg, Sales Director of Remington Office Machines, 2 years before its doors closed after a 35 year existence.

The old school is dying out, but still taking some casualties with it as it goes.

Latest indicators are that 70% of successfully completed sales contacts now come from inbound marketing contacts, not outbound!
What does it mean?

It means telemarketing, cold calling, pressure selling, and direct marketing are becoming less effective.

The internet, social media and word-of-mouth is becoming the dominant means of establishing business contact.

Helping you understand buyer behaviour, and marketing insight into buying processes, means Launch Engineering can help you slingshot your sales into a whole new universe of possibilities.
