Sales teams

Your best sellers are natural mentors.

Sales people spend their working lives explaining value to strangers under time pressure. That is exactly what a 30-minute mentoring session asks for, and it is unusually good practice for the day job.

The benefits

What sales gets out of it.

Sharper discovery and questioning

A single focused question forces the same listening skills a good discovery call needs.

Confidence for new starters

Junior sellers learn faster from a peer who has hit the number than from a slide deck.

Brand in the market

Buyers notice a company whose people give time to people entering the industry.

Fits between calls

30 minutes, booked around pipeline, with no preparation required.

What mentees ask

The questions that come up.

  • Getting into sales without a degree

  • Moving from SDR to closing

  • Handling rejection without losing momentum

  • Negotiating pay and commission

  • Selling into a new sector

What your people can teach

Subjects only sales can cover.

How a deal really moves

Take a mentee through a live pipeline: first call, discovery, objection, close.

Selling yourself in an interview

The same discovery and value questions, pointed at their own CV.

How commission and targets work

OTE, quota, ramp and what a good sales job looks like from the inside.

Breaking into sales from anywhere

Retail, hospitality and support experience translate better than most people think.

How it runs

Four steps, no programme to build.

  1. 01

    Pick the programme

    Give across the sales floor, or Grow for a focused campaign.

  2. 02

    Invite the team

    One branded message, no new tools.

  3. 03

    Sellers book 30 minutes

    At a time that does not touch pipeline.

  4. 04

    Track it

    Sessions and hours reported by team.

Programmes

Three ways to fund it.

Give

Open mentoring across your workforce, funded as an ongoing commitment.

Grow

One cause, one target, one deadline, for a focused internal push.

Redirect

Offer a session to candidates you turn down, so a rejection still helps.

Questions

The things people ask first.

Will this eat selling time?

30 minutes, chosen by the seller. Most take one a month.

Can we run it as a team challenge?

Yes. Grow sets a target and a deadline the floor can see.

Do mentees have to be in sales?

Usually they are, or they are trying to get in.
