Coaching Path: Closing Skills Gap

1. Diagnostic Questions for Next 1-on-1:
   • What's your experience closing deals been like? What's different from last quarter?
   • Walk me through your last 3 losses. Where did we lose them?
   • How are you handling price objections when they come up?

2. Skill-Focused Coaching Conversation:
   • Introduce the "assumptive close" technique for consultative selling
   • Practice objection-handling playbook: Price → Value Ladder → Walk Back → Commitment
   • Do a live role-play where you're the buyer with a tough price objection

3. Accountability Plan:
   • Record 2 sales calls this week for feedback
   • Run 5 closes using the new technique
   • Review pipeline together Friday to identify close opportunities

Example 2: Difficult Conversation Template

I need to have a tough conversation with a high performer who's suddenly dropped off and seems checked out.

Output:

code
Conversation Script: Regaining Engagement

Opening: "I've noticed your performance has dipped. I want to understand what's going on and support you."

Listen Deeply: "What's changed for you? Walk me through what's been on your mind."

Validate & Problem-Solve:
• IF external issue: "That sounds tough. Here's what I can do to support you..."
• IF motivation issue: "Let's reset your goals and talk about what success looks like for you."

Recommit: "Here's what I'm committing to. Here's what I need from you. Let's check in Friday."

Example 3: New Rep Ramp Acceleration

I just hired two new inside sales reps. How do I help them ramp fast and build confidence in the first 60 days?
