How Can I eSignature PPT for Sales Teams

I’ve been building sales teams for the better part of a decade and while I'll dive more in depth in my answer than this, I can confidently say that the key to building a team is to continuously evolve as a leader and know yourself. There's always more than one way to build a great team but no one else is you and if you moonlight completely in someone else's practices you will never build a great team. When I look back at my career, I realize I don’t really remember the times when I made the most money. I need my tax returns to remind me of the exact dates. What I do remember, is the epic teams that filled my career with depth, relevancy and amazing memories. These teams took time to craft and build but time together alone doesn’t create these epic teams but the quality of time you take with each member individually and as a team. Like anything special, the time and energy that takes to create someone meaningful will show and eventually lead to the success you were looking to achieve. I bet you if I compared my tax returns with these teams there will be a clear correlation between the two.In SaaS, it's crucial to focus on the the hiring process itself because it ends up becoming your company philosophy and impacts more than butts in seats.  First, it’s a chance to sell that your company is growing and needs people to respond to this demand and grow even more - not like in San Francisco that's any different than most startups, but when startups slow down hiring it's a sign that there's some internal shifting going on. Secondly, it’s a chance to reinforce what’s important to your team so that the message that’s communicated externally is accurate and believed - the most effective recruiting tool is having your team be able to inspire people with the answer to this simple question: "Why do you work at Boomtrain?" Ultimately it surfaces your team’s identity from within as opposed to what you think your team stands for or even what you as a leader stand for.Find Your True Identity To build a truly great team, it takes an investment in team building and to take advantage of moments like this to seek out your team’s true identity to attract new members to join. It starts with you as a leader to take the reins on the hiring and recruiting process itself. I’m VP of Sales and while my job is to make sure revenue numbers go upward to the right, I’ll always be a recruiter at heart. In my mind, if you’re not always recruiting you’re not always leading. If you outsource this to HR or another department it will only remove you from the process itself and creates more process to respond aggressively.So before you sit down and try to figure out who the “ideal” “A Player” will be, look in the mirror and check yourself before you wreck yourself, ask these questions:  Is your team filled with people that continually push themselves to be better every day and have a track record of improving? Take it further than that – do you? How have you grown as a leader in the last 3 months? Be honest with yourself because if you don’t nail your own identity don’t expect anyone else to “get you”. The difference between hiring an average person and an A+ player is millions of dollars.  How you interview needs to be attractive for the A+ players out there or you’re screwed.Write down three characteristics you believe you stand for as a leader and then ask your peers, previous coworkers if those are accurate. You need to pitch yourself just as much as the company - what will someone gain by working, learning and spending time with you? Pick Your Interview Team Everyone has different styles in interviewing and some people are just plain bad at it. As the leader of the team, you know who these people are - so don’t put them in the interview team! They might be very good at what they do, but they’re just not good at interviewing. Look at your team and ask who’s interested in interviewing first, then talk about the different styles that they will use when doing so. In a technical hire, there needs to be an element of technical questioning of course, but there also needs to be a balance as well. Don’t make up the interview team solely on “technical drill sergeants” but have some team members that can round out the process and make it attractive.Define the Process It should start with you to conduct the first pass. You are more serious than anyone on your team about the importance of the team culture. Why would anyone else care more than you? No matter how great someone is, if they don’t fit the team dynamic they’re not going to be hired anyway - don’t waste time, do this up front. If you end up sacrificing culture for skill, you will end up with a team of incredibly skilled nomads that will feel no connectedness to the greater purpose.Make the candidate feel important from the start. If you can do a face to face first then do it, there are more nonverbal cues that you can look out for in a face to face interview that you cannot pick up on during a phone call - and the simple fact is that candidates don’t take the interviews as seriously if it’s on the phone and it comes off that you don’t as well.Team Interview After you initial screen, make sure you have an interview team set up to continue the process. This shouldn’t be everyone on your team, but the members of your team that are engaging and understand the importance of building your team the right way. Building an effective interview team is your responsibility and you need to make sure you’re meticulous about assigning the right people to help you out in this arena. Don’t pick the best biller just because they’re the best biller, they have to understand the importance of recruiting members to the team. There have been cases of the best sales person in the team scaring off talented recruits because they felt threatened by the candidate which is an entirely different problem with your culture if that’s the case but it still should be stated. It might actually be a good moment to take time and tell that “stellar” sales guy how they can grow into a leader and be attractive. Again – take every opportunity to invest more energy into your team to strengthen it even more.Meet with the interview team ahead of time so there is a consistent vision that’s being communicated and go over what everyone will be covering. A consistent theme from your interview team shows organization and passion for what you stand for. How a company hires is typically how they manage - set the stage by being organized. This is your culture and as a leader, culture is your business so make sure it shows from the start.Don’t do this…Don’t drag process out. First interview to offer should take 5-7 business days or you will lose all the momentum that you worked so hard to gain in the process.Don’t delegate the entire process. HR is a great resource, but you’re the manager. Be involved in the process from beginning to end, it shows that you care about hiring the right person more than the actual process.Don’t let egos get in the way. In sales it’s not always black and white as to the way to do things. Granted, there’s wrong ways of going about solving problems but don’t have the interview turn into a technology pissing contest.Don’t let maybe’s stay maybes. Every hire is a risk - some more than others. If you talk out some of your concerns with the candidate, you can either solidify or alleviate your concerns with them. You can be a hero - just for one day.

Thanks for A2A, Serah!I think email signature is very important for all business people, not just sales and marketing teams.However, if your sales team is doing email outsignNow, having a proper signature is a must.

These images from a neuroscientific study published on August 6th, 2014, are your keys to making a great first impression - I guarantee it - because I’ve been teaching this concept for over twenty years.I’ll explain below.Your smile is not the key to making a great first impression by getting someone to instinctually trust you. It’s what you are doing before you smile that determines whether you will be trusted or distrusted.Trust and First Impressions are concepts that I’ve been researching and studying since 1979 – first as a character actor in films, then as a filmmaker, and now as a legal consultant prepping clients and witnesses to testify and creating trial strategies for litigators.Every answer I’ve read to this question (on this site) was good advice.However, there is neuroscientific research on first impressions that is much more specific, precise and thus will guide you to do exactly what you need to do to get someone to trust you in fractions of a second.If someone trusts you within seconds of meeting you, there is no better first impression that you can make.The images above are from a seminal study was published in the Journal of Neuroscience: “Amygdala Responsivity to High-Level Social Information from Unseen Faces.”If you Google that phrase (in quotes) you’ll find a PDF of that study. It’s really technical, and you don’t really need to read it – unless you’re a neuroscience nerd like me.So here’s the fast track: Take a look at these images (above) from that study.Look closely at the third and sixth images on the top row, from the left. The ones with “High” written above them, meaning that we trust people who look like these images.Believe it or not, those images are the key to you making a great first impression, because if when someone sees you for the first time, and if your face matches those expressions, they will trust you – instinctually – within five one-hundredths of a second. Hard to believe, but true.I was thrilled to see this study on the day it was published because it validated a concept I created called Dominant Face, that impact trust and first impressions. I’ve been teaching this concept since 1993.I call the expressions under “High,” a good “Dominant Face.”Your Dominant Face is the face you wear when you don’t think you are communicating with anyone. And here’s the deal: Most people’s Dominant Faces are bad. Take a look at the first and forth images with “Low” written above them. Those are what I call bad “Dominant Faces.”If you are wearing a bad Dominant Face when someone see you for the first time, it doesn’t matter what you are wearing, what your hair or makeup looks like, and it doesn’t matter how you greet them or shake their hand – it will be too late – they will already distrust you.Every wonder why so many people are hesitant to trust strangers? It’s because most people walk around with bad Dominant Faces.A good Dominate Face is not a smile. It’s just a pleasant look as if you are thinking about something nice.So here’s the key to making a great first impression: When someone sees you for the first time, if you are wearing your good Dominant Face, and then the instant you make eye contact with that person you smile – that’s how you make a great first impression and get someone to instinctually trust you, as the study above revealed.Your smile should be generated not by you – but rather by your contact with someone else. We are all suspicious of people who never, ever stop smiling; that’s just weird.But a good Dominant Face is not a smile. It’s just a pleasant look. Contact with someone else, is what should generate your smile. And if you are smiling because you saw that person’s face, they can’t help but be flattered and will – unconsciously – return your smile, because of what neuroscientists call “mirror neurons,” but that’s a subject for a different post.Since I’d been teaching my Dominant Face concept for over twenty years when the neuroscientific study noted above was published, you can bet your bottom that I was thrilled.So now start thinking pleasant thoughts, put on your good Dominant Face, and get out there and start making awesome First Impressions!And if you want, send me a selfie with your best good Dominate Face and I’ll let you know how you’re doing.Cheers – literally.

There are multiple ways to do that. It could depend on what form your data is currently in. PowerPoint has the ability to create a number of graphs and pie charts natively. If you have graphics in a spreadsheet or a program such as SalesForce, you can save charts, graphs or screenshots, insert them into a PowerPoint slide, and adjust the size to fit. You can get help at www.PowerPoint.com, and there are numerous tutorials available on YouTube and elsewhere online.

How can I make a good PPT?It really depends on the purpose of the presentation.Is it a school project? A business presentation? A sales pitch? An academic presentation?Primarily, a good presentation needs to support you in bringing your message across in the most effective and compelling way possible.The best way to do that is definitely NOT to create slide after slide of bullet points with long run-on sentences and then read out the slides in a droning monotone. That would be “death by PowerPoint”.Beyond this rather obvious point, we’re back to “it depends”. In a corporate context, proper and clean application of the company’s corporate design is very, very important. The presentation is not just you, presenting your topic - you are often also representing the company in the eyes of your audience. Sloppy presentations simply look badly thought out and inevitably weaken your message.One thing which might help here is that I always recommend that people think carefully about the role of their PPT. Many people have fallen into this strange zombie-like state of thinking “Hey, I have to hold a presentation next week - so I’ll slap together a few slides, then I’m done.” Well, no. That’s lazy and sloppy. And it puts you in the 95% of people who use PPT as an excuse to actually thinking their topic through properly.A better way to proceed could be to start off by thinking “Okay - now what are the four or five key messages that I absolutely need to get across in this presentation? I usually suggest that there is room for one key message per five minutes time. You got ten minutes? That’s two key messages. Choose well, Padawan! Then think about how you could best get those messages across. What background information does the audience need to have, what do they need to understand? What points support your argument? What about points that argue AGAINST your idea? Consider laying them out in the open too and addressing them head-on instead of trying to pretend they don’t exist and hoping no-one asks that question.Actually creating the presentation in PowerPoint should be the very last step here. Not the first (and often only) step.Hey - you may even decide not to create a PowerPoint presentation at all. You may decide to put together a one-pager in Word which you hand out as pre-reading and then work with flip-charts which you have rehearsed.Personally, I like to tell stories (who’d have thunk it, eh?). And that’s what I do when I present. I tell stories. I role-play, I use anecdotes to illustrate specific issues. My aim is to make access to complex information as straightforward as possible.Let’s take training company staff to use a new IT system, which is what I do a great deal of (well, it’s my job): I believe that if I am able to make an audience WANT to use that system, then the rest is largely automatic. My training sessions cover the hands-on basics, but I always emphasise why this particular feature is worth getting excited about. I explain what effect a new process will have on their everyday business. I try to show them the big picture, and not just “click here, now click there, now hit okay…” I hate having people walk out of a training session thinking “I know how to use the system now, but I still don’t have a clue as to why I should bother in the first place.So back to your question: The best possible presentation is one which supports you and your individual communicative skill set in such a way that you can get your message across effectively. This may include PPT slides. But it doesn’t have to. We need to re-learn to communicate. Communication isn’t just about creating slides. It’s about getting the message across.And if creating a series of slides with no text but just with photos illustrating what you are talking about, or video clips showing examples which you then analyse by discussing them - go for it.
