I am not quite sure of how the word “pitch” ever became associated with professional selling. The term has been around since the late 1920’s and I imagine that it may have started in relation to the game of baseball. No matter what the version, be it British, English or International, the ball-and-bat game is very similar. A “pitcher” throws a ball at a “batter” who attempts to hit the ball.

Professional selling is perhaps the most subjective business in the world. You will always be somewhat biased when it comes to measuring your own work ethic. The amount of prospects you think you talked to and the actual amount of prospects you spoke with, will seldom match. In addition, factual sales data can be equally as misleading. To get a clear picture of how you are doing in your sales career, you have to measure more than the amount of sales you made.

Keeping a sales team motivated and enthusiastic can be difficult especially in slow economic times. One sure way to help with this is to set goals other than sales goals and targets and reward sales people for reaching them. Every Step in the Sales Process is Important. Remember that closing the sale is only one step in a complete sales process. Closing the sale is the result of a sales process that actually entails many sales activities other than the sales interaction and closing.

Sales people usually look in only a few areas when it comes to finding ways to increase sales. Sales professionals look to increase the total amount of prospects they see by making more calls, sending more emails and increasing their overall prospecting activity. Or, the sales person and management team look to increase closing averages by learning more techniques, overcoming a few more objections or being a bit more persistent.

One way to get around the, “We have no money in the budget,” objection is to simply find another budget. That’s right.
