Why do some teams run smoothly while others just spin their wheels? The difference might be all in their heads—literally. It’s all about vision alignment - are you ready for the BS? 🤓 🧠 When everyone’s tuned into the same vision, something incredible happens. 🦄 The prefrontal cortex, the part of our brain that handles focus and decision-making, lights up when we feel connected to a bigger purpose. It’s a dopamine rush—the brain’s natural “feel-good” chemical—giving us an extra boost of motivation and creativity. And it’s more than just a morale boost. →Alignment cuts down on mental friction we feel when our actions don’t match our beliefs. 😌 →When your team’s work syncs with your vision, sales and revenue increase. 💰 →Companies with strong vision alignment see up to a 30% bump in productivity. 🤯 Why? Because aligned teams aren’t grinding—they’re thriving, working with purpose and enthusiasm. 📌 Do you have a shared vision statement? ====== 👋🏼 I’m Leslie, your strategic sales coach.

Your revenue isn’t driven by numbers. It’s about belief. 🧠✨ If you believe that every customer interaction is an opportunity to build trust, that will drive the types of actions that lead to sales. And your customers will feel it. Belief fuels the passion and commitment that turn transactions into genuine connections that create lasting relationships. Here’s what I believe: ➜ Sales isn’t about pushing products. It’s about solving problems. ➜ Connection > automation. AI has its place, but it can’t replace the human touch. ➜ Trust isn’t built overnight. It’s earned through consistency, empathy, and personalization. Our study revealed that 41% of buyers hesitate to trust companies that rely heavily on AI. Why? Because we’re wired for human interaction. Buyers want to know there’s a real person behind the brand who understands their needs and is invested in their success. When you make your process about more than just closing a sale, you create a lasting impact. 📌 What do you believe drives sales success? ====== 👋🏼 I’m Leslie, your strategic sales coach.

When your team sees themselves as problem solvers and advisors, they open the door to deeper, more meaningful interactions with your customers. 📈As trust grows, so does revenue. Our recent study showed that when salespeople personalize their approach, 92% of buyers are more likely to make a purchase. 💥That’s the power of connection. 📌 What’s the best way you’ve found to make customers feel truly valued?

The best salespeople share a hidden trait, and you may be completely overlooking it… It’s curiosity. 🤔 Why? (Thanks for asking, curious one! 😉) Because curious people ask the right questions. They dig deeper. They care about the "why" behind every answer. And in sales, that’s where the magic happens. Curious minded people: →Are natural learners →Welcome change →Think outside of the box to solve problems →Value creativity and innovation Here are 3 questions to assess curiosity: → What do you do for fun? → How do you approach learning something new? → What’s a skill you taught yourself? 💡More important than your questions are theirs - naturally curious candidates will come prepared with insightful questions about the role, your company, your customers, and your vision.
