Sellers Do Not Manage Their Time and Focus Well

71%

of companies do not believe their sellers manage their time and day effectively.

2.4X

Elite Performers are 2.4x more likely than The Rest to agree that sales managers and leaders are effective at maximizing selling energy.

83%

of Elite Performers believe their culture drives and supports sellers' motivation to succeed.

According to our Top Performing Sales Organization research, only 3 in 10 companies agree that their sellers manage their time and day effectively. This means that if you line up 10 sellers, 7 of them are wasting time on activities that are not producing desired results.

Elite and Top-Performing companies are significantly more likely to report a stronger culture that supports motivation, and sales managers who maximize seller energy.

Having a highly-motivated sales team is essential to see consistent sales results.

In Extreme Productivity, your team will learn to master The XP3—3 Keys of Extreme Productivity. They'll learn to manufacture motivation, control their TIME, and execute in the zone.

Experience Success Like Our Clients

Publishing firm overcomes successive years of decline to grow 20% YOY.

After missing its annual target and on the way to an even bigger miss the following year, SAGE Publishing brought in RAIN Group to teach its team the fundamentals of productivity and time management.

RAIN Group analyzed participants using the Extreme Productivity Assessment and delivered a 1-day intensive workshop customized to its findings. This included introducing participants to a planner outlining how to set goals and action plans, stop bad habits and start good ones, utilize a proven 5-step morning routine, start each day with their greatest impact activity, and more.

As a result of the training, sales activity has increased and SAGE is 20% ahead of the prior year, a significant improvement over previous losses.
