SBI Sales and Marketing Video Podcast Episode Summary:
Greg Alexander, CEO of SBI and host of today’s video podcast, sits down with John Gleason, senior vice president of global sales for Ryder Fleet Management Systems, to speak about creating a successful sales strategy transformation from within your company.

First we spoke about redesigning your organizational structure without disrupting current operations or offending current employees. In order to prevent backfire from within the company, it is important to keep current employees in mind when redesigning your strategy. A lack of support from within can halt your strategic planning in its tracks.

Next, we discuss which steps to take before implementing any changes. The first aspect includes an assessment period, to analyze organizational development and reveal the problem areas. Then, if necessary, implement any infrastructure investments and include the departments needed in the developments, such as IT, in your strategic planning process.

Finally, we analyze the three most important aspects to ensure a successful sales transformation. Step one is leveraging the assessment period to determine the largest holes in the business strategy, and step two is repairing those as quickly as possible. Step three is utilizing step two’s reparations while building upon them to create a stronger and more comprehensive sales strategy.
