Face-to-face connection has traditionally been the most impactful way to build rapport with a prospect. While field salespeople still have that opportunity, inside sellers may never meet a decision maker in person. Inside sales training from Funnel Clarity tackles this and other challenges faced by inside salespeople and helps build a strategy and new set of tactics necessary for maximum results. Our approach to inside sales coaching is data-driven, focusing on a proven set of strategies and tactics that work together to build a repeatable formula to accelerate deals.

Inside sales professionals experience advantages and disadvantages compared to field salespeople. The core goals of prospect interactions remain the same: establish rapport and trust, employ a consultative selling approach and move your prospect through subsequent next steps. The tactics to achieve these goals are where the differences lie. Inside salespeople are more dependent on the tech stack available to them, and keeping prospects engaged often falls on a demo. The intersection of advantages and disadvantages is where our inside sales coaching thrives.

Inside sales coaching at Funnel Clarity starts by ensuring that the technology stack serves the success of the inside salesperson. Investments in CRM and sales enablement to automation and scheduling are essential as inside salespeople add structure and efficiency to their planning and execution.

While the tech stack is important, the formula for success lies in revised strategies and tactics that engage prospects effectively, even while remote.

The inside sales formula for success is unique. More factors are at play that field sales personnel don’t encounter. Despite these factors, inside sellers often produce more results per unit of effort than field-based colleagues. Inside sales training at Funnel Clarity focuses on a research-proven course to teach inside sellers how to maximize their results.

Turning the traditional demo focus mentality on its head is a crucial step. Years of inside sales coaching and analysis has allowed us to identify a formula for how to develop and implement a powerful inside sales force, accelerating deals and increasing close rates.
