- What if our top-selling salesperson is the worst at hitting target prices and margins?
- Will salespeople really listen to Sales Ops when it comes to things like pricing, cross-selling, retention, etc.?
- We track close-rates by sales rep, but they always brush-off the massive variances as being "mix related". Any suggestions?
