Do you think the act of using social media is going to regress and become a fad? Jamie Shanks, CEO of Sales for Life, is here to tell you that society is going to use digital platforms more and more. This is especially relevant when it comes being a successful sales leader. Social selling isn’t a new thing but it is still in it’s growing phases. That means the online buyer and seller relationship trends are going upwards. With the world around us becoming more digital, it only makes sense that the buyer and seller need to start meeting in that digital world. The question is: Are you ready for the transition from analogue to digital? In episode 43 of the Digital Delusion, we sit down with Jamie Shanks author of The Social Selling Mastery book to discuss exactly how to become a top sales leader in the digital world. Jamie shares tips and tools that are key to a smooth and speedy transition. In his experience training 300 plus global customers, Jamie has perfected a daily sales routine called FEED that can be taught in 30 days yielding results you can see within 60-90 days. Let's face it, buyers have become digital from underneath you and its time to future proof your business. In this Episode! Jamie shares with us the process of what it takes to be the best online sales leader and how to future proof your business by joining the digitization. You’ll learn important steps and processes like: 3 strategies for sales leaders looking to improve their online sales force 1. Undergo a mindset shift, a skillset shift and a toolkit shift “I'm a believer that every seller or sales leader needs to go through three stages. You basically have to go through a mindset shift, a skillset shift, and then you have to go to a toolkit shift to help you. Mindset: You have to recognize that as a leader you're willing to look at your own playbook and how your coaching and leading and keeping my team accountable and say, ‘Guess what the world has evolved around me and I am willing to admit that I need to change my skills. I need to address the new buyer.’ And so that mindset shift has to come first. They say you know what the playbook I've been running maybe it's not good enough anymore. Skillset: Arming yourself with the information to understand what are the new digital activities you should be measuring. What are the skills that the team needs to have? And a lot of that is going to be foreign to the sales leader. Toolkit: Turn to your sales enablement team or a third party and say, ‘Help teach this to me.’ Go find a way to learn new tools and arm yourself with these.” 2. Get more yield and throughput for your sales reps “‘Improve your skills by saying, ‘Hey, the phone and email is not the only way to strike up a conversation and to generate new business!’ There are two valuable ways to get more yield and throughput. One is training & education and skills. Second is sales automation and tools which create efficiencies within the sales model. Companies are segmenting their sales professionals to not do all the all the tasks from top of the funnel the bottom of funnel. Hyper-specialization is a way that companies are improving yield and throughput. This is exactly what social selling is. It’s a process that every sales professional should throw into their into their tool kit. Its like icing on the cake. You need to have a baseline sales methodology or the baseline way of selling.” 3. Avoid the two biggest pitfalls of selling online “Two major pitfalls I see with online sales all the time: 1. First, frontline sales managers falling down and not keeping accountability or coaching towards the very digital activities that would drive results. So basically they look at social selling is like a pill or a widget and they say, ‘OK let’s, let's educate our team and then magic is going to happen.’ Well, no. Every week in your one-on-ones keep the team accountable to the same activities. That are going to drive...

How do you produce content that sparkles with value? Monetising your content and being able to see an actual measurable ROI on what you produce is every marketers dream. There are 3 layers of content that every brand should focus on. Having different content at different stages instead of a “one size fits all approach” will push people down your funnel into a customer. TEDx speaker and former founding editor of “Digerati Magazine”, Chris Rhyss Edwards knows that creating fascinating content should be a priority for your brand.

He knows how to make your brand a publisher and aggregator of content and shares his expertise with listeners.

Tony Nash CEO of Booktopia started his company on a $10 per day budget in February 2004. He shares his fascinating journey on becoming Australia’s biggest online book retailer without ever having set out a “grand plan” of doing so. Realising early on that focusing on his passion for books and “being one thing to one group made it easier to connect with the consumer” Booktopia now sells one product every 8 seconds. From stocking it’s first title in 2007 to now stocking 130,000 titles and 700,000 units ready-to-ship. The company operates from its Sydney Headquarters and Distribution Centre with a floor space of 13,000 square metres and ships 20,000 items per day. Tony brings a refreshing view to Amazon’s arrival in Australia and isn’t afraid of a little (or even big) competition reminding us that, “There is no point in freaking out. You can still have your spot in the world.” Booktopia plans on maintaining their spot by “keeping an eye on competitors through peripheral vision instead of focusing on them.” Part of Booktopia’s successful formula is to help their customers “discover something new” by adding value to the their lives and providing them with books to read that they never knew existed. In 2015 Booktopia bought Angus & Robertson Bookworld, a 130 year old iconic Australian brand. With revenues exceeding $100 million for the first time in 2017. In 2014 Booktopia won the Telstra Medium Sized Business of the year award for NSW and became the first ever company to make the BRW Fast 100 for seven years from 2009 to 2014 and again in 2016. Tony offers listeners great tips on how to ensure their staying power in this market and how to make the purchase process a smooth transaction. He also divulges why the Romance genre helped his company heat up book sales!

Don’t get left behind! On this episode of Breaking Digital, Doyle and Mark have a brilliant and honest discussion about what marketing actions need to take place within your business to survive. Forget about being an overnight YouTube success. Be real. Show who you are, mistakes and all. It makes for a better story. Mark refreshingly assures us that using a “humanity” filter in our branding is the way to our customers hearts. He pushes companies out of their comfort zone by encouraging them to share what they stand for, what they believe in, and essentially to reveal “their heart?” If your branding is failing it is likely bland, antiseptic, sterile, or formulaic. Bottom line: treat people online the same way you would treat them offline. The surprising twist: 2017 is going to be a milestone year with artificial intelligence at the forefront of marketing strategy. Can't get enough of Mark? He is the co-host of The Marketing Companion, one of the top 10 marketing podcasts on iTunes. Mark is a popular and entertaining commentator and has appeared on many national television shows and periodicals including the Wall Street Journal, Wired, The New York Times, CNN, National Public Radio, CNBC, the BBC and the CBS NEWS. He is a regular contributing columnist to The Harvard Business Review.
