Hi, welcome to be to be
a revenue acceleration. My Name Is Owen
8
00:00:36.039 --> 00:00:41.079
MT and I'm here today with Matt
Milligan, Co found dark. You Are
9
00:00:41.079 --> 00:00:44.280
you doing today, Matt, thanks
for having me on the show. Absolute
10
00:00:44.359 --> 00:00:48.920
pleasure. So the topic for today
is great sales. People are made,
11
00:00:49.159 --> 00:00:52.439
not born. But before we get
started, would you mind just giving us
12
00:00:52.439 --> 00:00:55.240
a little bit of backgrounds to you
know who you are yourself, Matt,
13
00:00:55.479 --> 00:00:59.399
but also the company you represent,
your hubbs. Yeah, absolutely, Solo
14
00:00:59.479 --> 00:01:03.520
Guy. I started my career actually
in the world of professional sports. So
15
00:01:03.560 --> 00:01:07.200
growing up was was sport mad.
Wanted to be be a footballer, then
16
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:11.319
an athlete and then a cricketer and
then finally a Golfer and I ended up
17
00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:14.920
playing an elite level golf in my
kind of junior years. That took me
18
00:01:14.920 --> 00:01:17.879
out to a professional golf tour in
South Africa. So I played a season
19
00:01:17.920 --> 00:01:22.200
on the I G T tour down
South in South Africa. Each amazing experience,
20
00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:26.920
incredible journey. Didn't ultimately, my
professional golf career didn't quite pan out.
21
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:29.560
I wasn't wasn't the next Tiger Woods, but learned a hell of a
22
00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:32.200
lot along the way and actually,
you know, if I think back,
23
00:01:32.760 --> 00:01:36.920
picked up probably a lot of my
my philosophies and and the way that I
24
00:01:36.959 --> 00:01:41.000
think about building business from the golf
course. Had some amazing opportunities to learn
25
00:01:41.159 --> 00:01:44.760
from really successful business people on on
the golf course. So I took that
26
00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:48.359
with me into the world of business
and I was always, always enjoyed selling,
27
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:51.599
always enjoyed building stuff, always,
you know, even throughout my academic
28
00:01:51.640 --> 00:01:53.719
career. And then I ended up, you know, joining the world of
29
00:01:53.719 --> 00:01:57.480
consulting when I was told by my
mom that I had to get a proper
30
00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:00.200
job, and so I went into
e y and within six months came up
31
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:04.680
with a business idea. Whilst I
was working at y and so built kind
32
00:02:04.680 --> 00:02:08.439
of pitched for for funding internally from
the partnership there and built a business with
33
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:14.000
any Y which was called the startup
network. We build a marketplace for startup
34
00:02:14.039 --> 00:02:17.280
and scale up founders in Europe to
help them raise money and then help them
35
00:02:17.280 --> 00:02:22.400
sell into enterprise and had an amazing
journey there a period of four and a
36
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:27.560
half years. Built the team,
built a service proposition and worked with maybe
37
00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:30.719
three hundred plus go to market teams
and their founders, and that was where
38
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:35.039
the idea for hubs came from.
You know, we, I think it.
39
00:02:35.479 --> 00:02:38.360
You Talk. We talk a lot
as as founders, about pattern recognition
40
00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:44.199
and spotting trends and I definitely saw
a lot of the same patterns playing out
41
00:02:44.199 --> 00:02:46.479
when it came to scaling revenue teams. So I saw that as a big
42
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:53.159
barrier to growth for fast growth businesses. Sales enablement was a relatively new term
43
00:02:53.400 --> 00:02:55.840
back five six years ago and we
didn't see a hell of a lot of
44
00:02:55.879 --> 00:03:00.000
options available to fast growth businesses,
and so we've set to build new hubs
45
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:02.960
to help solve that and you you. Hubs, as I mentioned, were
46
00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:09.439
sales enablement solution. We're focused really
on helping series a plus founders and their
47
00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:14.680
sales leaders, you know, save
time ramp up their sellers to full productivity
48
00:03:14.759 --> 00:03:20.360
quicker. And we do that using
competency data to intelligently develop sales people.
49
00:03:20.759 --> 00:03:23.319
Makes Sense, makes past place.
It was a fantastic story, first of
50
00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:27.639
all. So congratulations. We we
always believe, I don't belief it's submit,
51
00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:30.319
I still believe it so if its
submit, and still still very much
52
00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:36.479
in my mind, but that good
athletes of sport people do become good sales
53
00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:38.439
people. And I don't know if
it's if it's the a bit of training
54
00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:42.360
or the a bit of working as
part of a team or the a bit
55
00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:45.280
of, you know, taking rejection. You don't play, you on the
56
00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:47.280
bench. Will you take it personally? Now you're going to think about it,
57
00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:51.439
go by in training and and try
to get on the pitch next time.
58
00:03:51.520 --> 00:03:55.280
But it's very interesting. It's interesting
that you went from, you know,
59
00:03:55.439 --> 00:04:00.680
group spots, collective spot, to
to golf. Golf must be quite
60
00:04:00.719 --> 00:04:02.039
lonely. You know, I'm not
really good at golf myself, so you
61
00:04:02.039 --> 00:04:04.280
know, maybe when they can show
you a trick or two. But yeah,
62
00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:08.719
and and what you've done afterward,
you is is very interesting and I
63
00:04:08.759 --> 00:04:12.840
believe that there is real, real, real value proposition interests for a lot
64
00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:15.279
of people around the hubs, simply
because, as we discussing the preparation of
65
00:04:15.279 --> 00:04:18.360
this podcast, there is a massive
shortage in self talent. You know,
66
00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:25.199
you are lawyers, doctors that go
to school to learn the craft, but
67
00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:28.680
there is no school now, university, no way to you know, from
68
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:35.480
an institutional educational system. Our education
system is institutional education system to actually learn
69
00:04:35.600 --> 00:04:40.279
sels. So it's very interesting that
you guys have invested in developing rubs.
70
00:04:40.319 --> 00:04:43.839
Now, before we go, we're
go into the details of how you do
71
00:04:43.879 --> 00:04:46.600
it and what you're looking for and
how you get started and the process that
72
00:04:46.600 --> 00:04:48.720
you are going through. I just
want to go back to the title of
73
00:04:48.759 --> 00:04:54.439
the the episode today and we're speaking
about good sales. People are not born,
74
00:04:54.519 --> 00:04:56.519
they're made. So I just want
to get your take on that.
75
00:04:56.600 --> 00:05:00.720
And then why do you think it
is that way? Yeah, so appreciate
76
00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:04.600
the question. I must disclose as
well. We kind of cheated a little
77
00:05:04.639 --> 00:05:09.439
bit with the title of the show
today, Ray, because at the Sales
78
00:05:09.480 --> 00:05:14.199
Innovation Expo last year here in London, I delivered a keynote on the same
79
00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:17.199
topic. So we created a little
bit of noise down there at the excel
80
00:05:17.480 --> 00:05:23.000
arena. We had some blow up
inflatable babies which became a kind of strap
81
00:05:23.079 --> 00:05:27.959
blind for us as a business.
And it's interesting right. I think there's
82
00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:30.959
a bit of a limited belief across
a lot of, should we call it,
83
00:05:31.000 --> 00:05:35.360
more traditional sales professionals, that you've
either got it or you haven't and
84
00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:41.360
sales is it's something you're naturally gifted
and you cannot you cannot learn it and
85
00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:44.839
you know for what we stand as
a as a business. We're really here
86
00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:48.800
to change that perception and prove that, you know, incredible, amazing sales
87
00:05:49.040 --> 00:05:54.000
talent can be built, it can
be made. We aren't just born at
88
00:05:54.040 --> 00:05:58.920
sales people and to honestly, I'll
start by casting our minds back in throughout
89
00:05:58.959 --> 00:06:02.279
history. If think about the history
of sales, I think the first recorded,
90
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:05.720
you know, the first early record
of of a sales transaction was like
91
00:06:05.800 --> 00:06:10.680
five thousand BC. You know,
they were like bartering with the rocks and
92
00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:14.560
objects. You think about how much
sales has evolved in in all of that
93
00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:19.399
time through different sales methodologies, different
market environments, different expectations of buyers.
94
00:06:20.319 --> 00:06:25.560
The short of that that history is
that sales has evolved and it's adapted a
95
00:06:25.560 --> 00:06:30.240
lot and and therefore sales people have
had to evolve with those changing environments.
96
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:34.160
Right. I think that just indicates
that as salespeople, we don't we aren't
97
00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:39.639
simply born with the natural gift to
do it. We have to constantly be
98
00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:44.160
evolving our skill sets, we have
to constantly be growing and developing and improving
99
00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:46.920
our craft, and that's why,
you know, the philosophy for us as
100
00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:49.519
a business and what we stand for
as as founders of that of this company,
101
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:54.439
is that we're here to help people
realize their potential and develop and make
102
00:06:54.480 --> 00:06:58.399
themselves into great sales people. Good. Yeah, I do like the idea
103
00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:01.000
of the influtable baby and the or
cod by they must have been crazing a
104
00:07:01.040 --> 00:07:03.839
little bit of disruption, which is
always good. Okay, so I get
105
00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:08.399
that. So you can help people
to develop their skills, you can help
106
00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:12.800
people to become better. You know, now to change a little bit the
107
00:07:12.879 --> 00:07:15.800
I D resentably, I've been doing
some three sixty. Well, the feedback
108
00:07:15.879 --> 00:07:18.600
I got from my mentors were more
about, okay, well, don't try
109
00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:23.519
to walk too much on your weaknesses, but try to concentrate on your strength
110
00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:27.319
because this is really only you can
develop things. Walking on your weaknesses,
111
00:07:27.439 --> 00:07:30.480
it may not be good. That's
that's one thing that I want to point
112
00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:32.680
out. The second thing is I
do believe, rightly or wrong being,
113
00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:40.680
and please channge me if you disagreement, that curiousity is one of the traits
114
00:07:40.759 --> 00:07:44.720
that it's very difficult to teach people. You is a habit or you don't
115
00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:49.040
have it, but I think it's
it's a behavior that is quite critical to
116
00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:54.040
become a good seales person. You
need to be inquisitive, curious, and
117
00:07:54.079 --> 00:07:57.480
that that's just the one that I
want to mention out of many. So
118
00:07:57.560 --> 00:08:03.439
so I guess my question to you
is what sort of transwitnesses behaviors or skills
119
00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:07.920
or such skills? What's the what's
the stuff products? So you know,
120
00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:11.399
I'm not talking about the baby,
I'm talking about the umbre in here.
121
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:15.079
What what do you need that the
bread to look like for them to actually
122
00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:18.839
move into sales and become good at
sends? What would you be looking for
123
00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:22.839
in some of when you build the
unions? The value of the qualities of
124
00:08:22.199 --> 00:08:26.399
this individual? Yeah, it's a
great question and it's a great point you
125
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:30.319
make. Gray you know you're you're
quite right. There are for sure certain
126
00:08:30.399 --> 00:08:35.320
core competencies that we see in in
high performance commonly. I'll share some of
127
00:08:35.320 --> 00:08:39.080
those in a moment. We've done
a load of research recently with our partners
128
00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:43.679
at wiser elite, the recruitment organization. We actually put one hundred of the
129
00:08:43.720 --> 00:08:48.720
top sellers in a mere through our
youthubs competency tool which we called the hopes.
130
00:08:48.840 --> 00:08:52.679
So we've got a lot of data
in terms of what the common characteristics
131
00:08:52.679 --> 00:08:56.639
and competency areas are of those high
performers. And you're absolutely right. You
132
00:08:56.679 --> 00:09:00.720
know, like curiosity, you mentioned, there is one that comes out really
133
00:09:00.759 --> 00:09:05.000
strongly. I think it's a very
hard one to develop. One area which
134
00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:09.159
we assess, which came out as
taught, was actually growth mindset. So
135
00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:13.679
the highest performing sellers have a really
strong aptitude towards growth mindset. And for
136
00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:18.919
those who aren't as familiar with growth
mindset, what growth mindset essentially means.
137
00:09:18.000 --> 00:09:22.720
As you are going back to our
point we made around professional sport, we're
138
00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:24.960
need to this podcast. If you're
listening to the spot us, you are
139
00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:30.240
working on your gross mindset. Absolutely, absolutely. You know, the growth
140
00:09:30.320 --> 00:09:37.600
mindset is about accepting failure and setbacks
as learning opportunities. But it's about being
141
00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:41.960
able to bounce back and and come
back stronger from those those setbacks, and
142
00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:48.279
it's also about adopting a marginal gains
approach to how you develop, so understanding
143
00:09:48.360 --> 00:09:52.960
that improvements come not from drastic,
overnight change but they come from those little
144
00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:56.720
daily, one percent improvements. So
growth mindset would would be another kind of
145
00:09:56.759 --> 00:10:01.120
core core competency area. O to
see one when we think about onboarding sales
146
00:10:01.159 --> 00:10:05.919
people into a new organization. Product
knowledge came out in the top three,
147
00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:09.039
having a deep understanding of your product. It's very hard to sell something if
148
00:10:09.080 --> 00:10:13.240
you don't understand what you're selling.
And then, interestingly enough, another top
149
00:10:13.320 --> 00:10:16.759
three competency for high performance came out
as time management at planning. Now,
150
00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:20.879
even you know a lot of salespeople
that I know are high performance probably wouldn't
151
00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:28.720
consider themselves amazing time managers. But
if you think about a core competency for
152
00:10:28.759 --> 00:10:31.799
a seller, you have to be
able to run your day, you have
153
00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:35.279
to be able to structure your day
effectively, that you have to be responsive
154
00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:37.399
to clients, you have to be
good at following up and you have to
155
00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:41.000
be consistent and you know, without
that ability to manage your day and your
156
00:10:41.039 --> 00:10:46.080
time effectively, it's really hard to
consistently get results. Yeah, I agree
157
00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:50.639
with you interfect you and this is
probably one of them. Stay management in
158
00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:56.039
planning. This is probably one of
the biggest gap between the SDR Dr Ward
159
00:10:56.080 --> 00:11:00.840
which which we are at doprietics evolved
in, and the a world so like.
160
00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:03.840
Obviously, when we speak about sens
sends, is lots of different things.
161
00:11:03.879 --> 00:11:07.639
You could do lots of things in
selves. You could be an inbound
162
00:11:07.720 --> 00:11:11.360
response person, which is more like
a desk helping people navigating. You could
163
00:11:11.399 --> 00:11:16.279
be someone who's doing prospecting cold art, which is another skill set. Then
164
00:11:16.279 --> 00:11:20.240
you've got the people closing business,
as you mentioned. You may be the
165
00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:24.039
very large organization where everything is cheaper
processed. You've got one step to the
166
00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:28.360
other to the other. You go
through a machine, you've got the playbook
167
00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:33.320
and you kind of have a little
bit of you could probably put a little
168
00:11:33.320 --> 00:11:37.639
bit of your own of your own
little spirit in the process, but basically
169
00:11:37.720 --> 00:11:41.440
the machine will dictate what the next
steps and and then you've got probably the
170
00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:45.480
enterprise sells well. I think it's
it's kind of the the even heaven of
171
00:11:45.559 --> 00:11:50.919
selling where, well, basically people, I think the artful part of sense
172
00:11:52.720 --> 00:11:56.360
is really at you cantually have a
process there and particular when you're setting something
173
00:11:56.399 --> 00:12:00.679
disruptive and you're trying to get the
first sell. that US why you need
174
00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:01.480
to be like, you know,
top of your game. This is are
175
00:12:01.480 --> 00:12:05.399
the gods of of selling really.
But what we see? We see a
176
00:12:05.399 --> 00:12:09.639
lot of you know SDR that wants
to become a it's almost like a you
177
00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:11.879
know, I'm a young boy.
I was born in the UK, so
178
00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:15.000
not me, you I was born
in the UK, so I should play
179
00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:18.960
football, Marh Bay, cricket.
You know, I should play Rutby,
180
00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:20.960
because this is what the spots are
available and I should do that because I'm
181
00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:24.480
a boy. Okay. So it's
almost like it's in your head that you've
182
00:12:24.519 --> 00:12:30.559
got to do something because you're associated
to something and it's almost the community,
183
00:12:30.639 --> 00:12:33.480
the group, that is reading you
to to go there. So we've got
184
00:12:33.559 --> 00:12:35.559
lots of people who think that the
next step for them is to become a
185
00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:41.720
but that time management and planning is
often the gap right. So I was
186
00:12:41.759 --> 00:12:45.279
in the system. I used to
plan my day, to do calls,
187
00:12:45.320 --> 00:12:48.559
to do things with send emails.
I had my routine, but now my
188
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:54.320
Rootin is completely changing. I've got
a quota, I'm not getting reasons every
189
00:12:54.399 --> 00:12:56.159
day, I'm looking at meetings,
I'm doing a demo every day and stuff
190
00:12:56.159 --> 00:13:00.759
where I'm getting your results potentially every
three months, every six months, every
191
00:13:00.840 --> 00:13:05.600
nine months, worst casing value,
every eighteen months. Okay, and we
192
00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:09.000
know that the longer the certain cycles
go, the less you feel something when
193
00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:13.639
the dielectricy come, but you know
they are missing that. Two things that
194
00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:16.600
they are missing is that sort of
is the chemicals that are going through our
195
00:13:16.639 --> 00:13:18.960
body of the wind, which is
not happening every day, but it's depending
196
00:13:18.960 --> 00:13:22.919
on the on the less often basis, on the more you know spread basis.
197
00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:26.000
And the certain thing is staate,
management and planning. Do you get
198
00:13:26.039 --> 00:13:30.000
in front of it? You've got
to target. How do I break it
199
00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:33.159
down? What do I need to
do? That sort of journey is very
200
00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:39.120
difficult and what we found. My
last comment on that is that it's actually
201
00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:41.960
tough because, if you think about
it, you've got you've got two things
202
00:13:41.960 --> 00:13:45.039
going on here in the balets.
You've got the market asking for junior I
203
00:13:45.279 --> 00:13:48.519
s to come on, okay,
and of course you want to fish from
204
00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:52.720
that point of of SDR PDAS.
That have been good, but the problem
205
00:13:52.720 --> 00:13:56.639
is that most of the company that
need junior I do not have mentals,
206
00:13:56.840 --> 00:13:58.960
do not have the processes, the
system, they don't, they are not.
207
00:14:00.120 --> 00:14:03.000
You have, okay, don't like
you guys looking at skills and competencies
208
00:14:03.039 --> 00:14:05.080
and stuff like this. So you
know what, I'm gonna pay you a
209
00:14:05.159 --> 00:14:09.399
lot of money. Here is a
target. Go and achieve your QUARTA.
210
00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:11.440
I may help you, but will
I be on course with you? Will
211
00:14:11.480 --> 00:14:16.039
it be debriefing with you? Will
be able to give you advice to bics
212
00:14:16.120 --> 00:14:20.600
and stuff and researching? And that's
what's difficult, because I think the mentoring
213
00:14:20.600 --> 00:14:24.240
is one of the element of coaching
is is very important, and not all
214
00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:28.600
sales manager a able to coach.
So it's kind of leading me to a
215
00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:31.679
bit more about two days that you
have. I'd like to under some more
216
00:14:31.679 --> 00:14:35.759
about your process. So now you've
got the right person. Okay, what
217
00:14:35.919 --> 00:14:41.600
happened next? You know what.
What was the journey from there? I'm
218
00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:45.679
sure there is a few, but
but what happened next month? Did you
219
00:14:45.759 --> 00:14:48.120
make a number of great points there
and and just to bring that to life,
220
00:14:48.399 --> 00:14:50.279
I think you hit the nail on
the head there where where you talked
221
00:14:50.279 --> 00:14:54.360
about the importance of the sales manager. The sales managers really for us that
222
00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:58.960
you have observe an integral part of
the process, so that the way that
223
00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:05.320
we think about this at you hubs
is really the first step is is understanding
224
00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:09.000
what your baseline is. So,
via baseline, what I mean is what
225
00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:13.720
does good look like for sales people
within your team? What are the common
226
00:15:13.759 --> 00:15:18.279
competencies? You know, we spoke
about some of the competency areas there across
227
00:15:18.279 --> 00:15:22.720
the board that are really important for
success, but specific to to your business,
228
00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:26.399
your team, the product you're selling, who you're selling it to?
229
00:15:26.039 --> 00:15:31.200
What are the competency areas that your
high performers have in common and what what
230
00:15:31.240 --> 00:15:35.159
does that baseline look like? Once
you've you've got that understanding? You know
231
00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:39.000
that. The way that we do
it is we have a seller assessment which
232
00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:43.159
we've developed over the past three years. We've worked with PSYCHOMETRICIANS here in London.
233
00:15:43.879 --> 00:15:48.120
Um. We're actually attached to London
Metropolitan University based down in shortage.
234
00:15:48.360 --> 00:15:52.279
So we've done academic studies to help
us build out the science behind our technology.
235
00:15:52.919 --> 00:15:56.480
We do it we put sellers through
a seven minute assessment. That does
236
00:15:56.519 --> 00:16:02.440
as it gives us an initial indication
of some of we call their natural strong
237
00:16:02.559 --> 00:16:06.080
competencies, their superpowers, as I
like to refer to them. We're good.
238
00:16:06.120 --> 00:16:10.440
That exactly the same the super bowls
awesome. But then, you know,
239
00:16:10.519 --> 00:16:12.639
as as as they start ramping up, we we then involved the manager.
240
00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:18.879
So we actually have the ability for
managers to do an observation of each
241
00:16:18.879 --> 00:16:22.480
of their team based on what they've
seen and observed on core recordings or selling
242
00:16:22.600 --> 00:16:27.759
out in the field and by combining
those, those two inputs with their KPI
243
00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:32.480
s. So then, you know, integrating with their crm and actually understanding
244
00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:36.279
how they're performing. We can now
start to create this picture of where each
245
00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:41.639
salesperson is stronger, where the gaps
are between that seller and that baseline that
246
00:16:41.720 --> 00:16:45.279
you've defined in terms of what good
looks like. We can then really help
247
00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:48.799
managers hone in on the areas that
they need to coach and develop each of
248
00:16:48.840 --> 00:16:52.519
their team members. And then,
alongside that, you know, we do
249
00:16:52.559 --> 00:16:53.960
a bit of the heavy lifting for
them. We have a load of content
250
00:16:55.039 --> 00:16:59.639
within the tool. We have development
recommendations that we can make on behalf of
251
00:16:59.679 --> 00:17:03.440
manager is because, let's not forget, you know, sales leadership is a
252
00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:06.839
tough job. We wear lots of
hats, there's not enough hours in the
253
00:17:06.920 --> 00:17:10.799
day. So really, you know, we exist and make sales leaders lives
254
00:17:10.839 --> 00:17:15.279
that much easier. Yeah, I
agree with you. So, coming back
255
00:17:15.279 --> 00:17:18.720
a little bit on the topic of
selection. So, you know, you
256
00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:22.920
mentioned streaky points where I agree with
you. I think product knowledge, it's
257
00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:27.000
kind of straight for lots you know, and I guess from my perspectivities of
258
00:17:27.160 --> 00:17:32.160
product knowledge, of really strong interest
of passion for the industry, because I
259
00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:34.759
think if you like something, you
don't need to know how pushbikes are walking.
260
00:17:34.839 --> 00:17:37.240
If you like cycling, you're you
know, you'RE gonna get to know
261
00:17:37.319 --> 00:17:41.400
it because you actually do that every
weekend. So it's that's that's that's but
262
00:17:41.480 --> 00:17:45.599
I think it's it's a passion for
the industry or passion for the product that
263
00:17:45.599 --> 00:17:51.079
that can be found. But curiousity
and gross mindset. How do you suggest
264
00:17:51.160 --> 00:17:53.039
for any sense, leader, on
listening to us today, that what should
265
00:17:53.079 --> 00:17:59.880
be the technique they used to assess
that in when an interview process or always
266
00:18:00.039 --> 00:18:03.039
is in that team currently right now, to see if they've got that.
267
00:18:03.599 --> 00:18:07.640
So look obviously there's very tactical things
you can do in the interview process which
268
00:18:07.680 --> 00:18:10.480
helps you screen, you know,
and if you've got a scorecard that you
269
00:18:10.599 --> 00:18:15.359
use, we always recommend clients roll
out a scorecard to support the interview process.
270
00:18:15.119 --> 00:18:18.119
But again, you know, going
back to that baseline. Once you
271
00:18:18.160 --> 00:18:22.079
have that baseline, that can help
you build out a more accurate scorecard,
272
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:26.079
because all of a sudden you're now
screening candidates against that definition of what you
273
00:18:26.119 --> 00:18:30.440
know is good. So you you
will now be screening against those competencies that
274
00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:33.839
are important for success, like growth
mindset and curiosity. In terms of how
275
00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:37.279
you actually do it in reality,
there are tactical things you can do within
276
00:18:37.319 --> 00:18:41.559
the interview right and there's been a
lot of content written thought leadership on on
277
00:18:41.599 --> 00:18:45.880
this. But you know, if
you think about things like growth mindset,
278
00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:49.839
you can interview around how they've overcome
adversity. What if they started and gone
279
00:18:49.839 --> 00:18:53.359
on to finish? You know,
how do they think about improvement? In
280
00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:57.039
terms of things like curiosity, you
can simply assess how many questions they're asking
281
00:18:57.039 --> 00:19:00.000
you. And you know, the
best candidates that I've hired in my sales
282
00:19:00.240 --> 00:19:04.640
leadership career have been candidates that interviewed
me. You know, when you get
283
00:19:04.640 --> 00:19:07.519
to the end of the interview you
think wow, like they're super curious.
284
00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:11.039
There's tactical things you can do like
that. On top of that, you
285
00:19:11.039 --> 00:19:18.759
know we've our assessment her screens for
natural aptitudes like this. There are other
286
00:19:18.000 --> 00:19:22.480
psychometric approaches in the market that you
can test news. But one thing that
287
00:19:22.519 --> 00:19:27.279
I'll just add on on all of
this is it's it's been really interesting to
288
00:19:27.400 --> 00:19:34.079
see how different competencies are required within
different businesses for success. So this is
289
00:19:34.119 --> 00:19:37.960
one thing that we at you hubs
are really keen to educate the market on.
290
00:19:38.599 --> 00:19:45.519
Is there's no one size fits all
for success in sales. It's super
291
00:19:45.559 --> 00:19:48.480
dependent on what you're selling and who
you're selling to. And just to give
292
00:19:48.519 --> 00:19:51.920
you an example of that, I
went for lunch last week with the head
293
00:19:51.960 --> 00:19:56.559
of sales enablement at CANVA. Now
was the incredible growth story. What they've
294
00:19:56.559 --> 00:19:59.960
done there like amazing, but they've, you know, the product led grow
295
00:20:00.200 --> 00:20:03.079
that they've been able to achieve,
but they've kept out a little bit on
296
00:20:03.200 --> 00:20:06.680
that and they're hiring a lot of
salespeople now and I had a conversation.
297
00:20:06.759 --> 00:20:10.640
They use a very similar approach to
what we do at you hubs. They
298
00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:17.319
use a psychometric assessment to screen for
natural aptitudes and competencies, and the leader
299
00:20:17.359 --> 00:20:18.599
at Canvas said something interesting to me. He said, you know, the
300
00:20:18.680 --> 00:20:25.160
number one competency that we've that we've
we've learned is most important for success at
301
00:20:25.200 --> 00:20:33.559
canvas natural introverts. So they look
to hire natural introverts, people who are
302
00:20:33.519 --> 00:20:38.680
naturally reserved, I don't like to
talk or shout much, aren't necessarily the
303
00:20:38.759 --> 00:20:44.000
life and soul of the party,
because they've identified, through looking at their
304
00:20:44.079 --> 00:20:48.440
their gong recordings and their analysis,
that the natural introverts listen more. They're
305
00:20:48.480 --> 00:20:52.680
better listeners, particularly when you're selling
to marketing leaders. They've identified that that
306
00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:57.799
competency is the most important for success. I just thought that was fascinating and
307
00:20:57.839 --> 00:21:03.000
goes to prove how, by understanding
what good looks like for your team can
308
00:21:03.079 --> 00:21:07.440
help you make so much better highest. That could also help me develop sellers
309
00:21:07.480 --> 00:21:11.200
in the right areas. I think
you made a very good point here.
310
00:21:11.400 --> 00:21:15.880
The some Viet we realized very late
because he was two thousand nineteen, two
311
00:21:15.880 --> 00:21:18.799
thousand and twenty. You know,
as we got into the covid stage,
312
00:21:19.440 --> 00:21:22.480
we saw that best people are the
gates were a bit loud. You know,
313
00:21:22.519 --> 00:21:26.279
you want someone with a bit laddish, you know, someone who has
314
00:21:26.279 --> 00:21:29.680
been has been playing football, is
a bit loud, s good bent player,
315
00:21:29.880 --> 00:21:33.000
workout, you know, kind of
like it. So it's gonna be
316
00:21:33.039 --> 00:21:34.440
a good addition to the team.
And and you're right, just listed to
317
00:21:34.480 --> 00:21:37.480
speak modern they listen. They tend
to like themselves a little bit more than
318
00:21:37.480 --> 00:21:41.160
they like Casa. So there is
not a lot of empathy or emotional intelligence.
319
00:21:41.960 --> 00:21:45.079
And then as we as we got
into Covid we realized that we had
320
00:21:45.119 --> 00:21:49.000
some very, I'm not going to
say very average performer. People were maybe
321
00:21:49.000 --> 00:21:52.119
at a for me as much as
we would like. We are struggling in
322
00:21:52.160 --> 00:21:56.839
an office environment, okay, and
I think they were struggling in an office
323
00:21:56.920 --> 00:22:00.720
environment because they were. They saw
that they were at list st two on
324
00:22:00.839 --> 00:22:06.240
a consistent basis, judged on the
consistent basis. So the small, intraveled
325
00:22:06.279 --> 00:22:10.519
personality, when they were tomb on
their own doing their own faith, could
326
00:22:10.559 --> 00:22:14.319
concentrate on what they were doing.
That's concentrating on what people are thinking about
327
00:22:14.359 --> 00:22:19.200
them. And we saw a term
of the LADDISH, stereotypical type of sales
328
00:22:19.279 --> 00:22:23.799
guy would but actually have the production
going down a little bit because they don't
329
00:22:23.799 --> 00:22:27.279
have the buzz of people looking at
them, and the introvert would see there
330
00:22:27.880 --> 00:22:32.880
production going up. So we looked
into that and we found something very similar.
331
00:22:33.920 --> 00:22:36.279
I'm gonna ask you a sifcues,
only if you have the answer,
332
00:22:36.359 --> 00:22:37.599
because I don't know if you has
a question at lunch. But how do
333
00:22:37.720 --> 00:22:42.519
you assess if someone is a naturally
introvert on that? Because introvert is one
334
00:22:42.599 --> 00:22:45.480
thing. What? What? What? The midress is natural part of it.
335
00:22:47.000 --> 00:22:51.799
You know, how do you get
sliced someone with really resolved how do
336
00:22:51.839 --> 00:22:56.079
you do it? Yeah, so
I guess you know. That's the that's
337
00:22:56.160 --> 00:23:00.319
the secret source behind psychometrics. You
know, by asking a series ease of
338
00:23:00.640 --> 00:23:06.839
of questions the sellers over a repeated
basis, not making it apparent which question
339
00:23:07.000 --> 00:23:10.920
relates to which competency area, you
know, we can start to draw out
340
00:23:11.119 --> 00:23:14.720
set of responses and start to build
a picture around their behaviors. And you
341
00:23:14.759 --> 00:23:18.359
know, that's how psychometrics works and
that's what our our technology is built around
342
00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:25.599
as well. So you know we're
constantly adding new competency areas into our technology.
343
00:23:25.799 --> 00:23:29.039
We have sixteen core competencies now.
That we look at. But what's
344
00:23:29.079 --> 00:23:33.319
been really interesting as well is the
ability to benchmark sales people. You know,
345
00:23:33.400 --> 00:23:36.920
I mentioned the report and research piece
we did we did recently on this
346
00:23:37.079 --> 00:23:42.359
topic. We've got thousands of data
points now on seller competencies and we've also
347
00:23:42.480 --> 00:23:48.400
got seller competencies aligned to revenue performance. So we can now start to create
348
00:23:48.440 --> 00:23:52.839
an understanding, you know, for
different industries, different sectors. What what
349
00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:56.440
is that baseline? You know,
what is that definition of what good looks
350
00:23:56.519 --> 00:24:00.279
like? And you mentioned it at
the beginning of the conversation ray round.
351
00:24:00.039 --> 00:24:03.799
In sales we, you know,
we don't have that industry standards. If
352
00:24:03.839 --> 00:24:07.400
you're a finance professional, you've got
the CF a. If you're a salesperson,
353
00:24:08.799 --> 00:24:12.200
there really is not mutch. So
you know, we at you hubs.
354
00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:15.440
In terms of our longer term goal
and vision is we want to become
355
00:24:15.559 --> 00:24:21.160
that global industry benchmark. We want
to create that standard of excellence for salespeople
356
00:24:21.839 --> 00:24:25.519
and then, along the way,
help them understand their strengths and improve.
357
00:24:25.920 --> 00:24:29.359
Okay, so okay, let's say. Let's say I'm I'm listening to this
358
00:24:29.440 --> 00:24:32.400
podcast and I'm like God, I
love the song of what what he's saying
359
00:24:32.440 --> 00:24:33.960
I love the song of a few
hubs and what these gays? I'll say,
360
00:24:34.799 --> 00:24:37.599
when can they unbark with you do
is it as the video, as
361
00:24:37.640 --> 00:24:41.480
the journey? Is it before that? Is it for people who have any
362
00:24:41.680 --> 00:24:45.200
team? Is it for people who
are trying to get day to sales management,
363
00:24:45.559 --> 00:24:48.720
or is it the prell spectrum?
It's a it's a great question and
364
00:24:48.519 --> 00:24:53.400
look, you make a great point
again by honing in on the challenges of
365
00:24:53.440 --> 00:24:59.920
sales leadership. And quite often sales
leaders get promoted into a sales leadership roll
366
00:25:00.079 --> 00:25:04.559
because they are a high performing I
c the challenge with that is that leadership
367
00:25:04.640 --> 00:25:08.559
is incredibly different to carrying a bag
and for any of us who have been
368
00:25:08.640 --> 00:25:14.680
on that journey we know there's a
very little support for sales leaders in organizations
369
00:25:14.720 --> 00:25:18.759
and this is one gap that we've
observed time and again across the industry.
370
00:25:18.000 --> 00:25:22.240
Sales leaders don't have much support to
develop their leadership skills, to understand how
371
00:25:22.279 --> 00:25:26.759
to become a coach, how to
lead from the front. So there's a
372
00:25:26.799 --> 00:25:29.720
lot of help that they need.
A sort of a really big focus area
373
00:25:29.759 --> 00:25:33.279
for for us and what we're doing, and nowhere is that more acute than
374
00:25:33.400 --> 00:25:38.559
in early stage businesses actually. So
if I think about you know, of
375
00:25:38.599 --> 00:25:44.160
our client base now are actually like
series a companies who have a head of
376
00:25:44.240 --> 00:25:49.119
sales, but obviously a series a
company haven't yet developed out your full revenue
377
00:25:49.200 --> 00:25:52.720
leadership team. So the head of
sales really has to be a VP of
378
00:25:52.759 --> 00:25:56.559
sales, a VP of marketing and
sometimes a VP of success as well,
379
00:25:57.279 --> 00:26:03.599
and an str manager and also close
their own deals and and and and be
380
00:26:03.680 --> 00:26:07.480
a player coach. So we're seeing
like a real need for like series a
381
00:26:07.640 --> 00:26:12.440
heads of sales who are scaling a
and SDR B Dr Teams just to plug
382
00:26:12.519 --> 00:26:18.559
a gap because also typically those companies
can't afford enablement people yet to come in
383
00:26:18.680 --> 00:26:22.319
and do this manually. So that
for us is like a really core time
384
00:26:22.519 --> 00:26:26.680
in terms of like a need for
for you hubs. That said, you
385
00:26:26.759 --> 00:26:30.839
know, with the work we've done
on competencies and how we're baselining sales teams,
386
00:26:32.759 --> 00:26:37.319
our biggest client today is zoo zoom
in. You know, we're baselining
387
00:26:37.640 --> 00:26:42.400
their North American seller base as we
speak, with plans to to globally baseline
388
00:26:44.160 --> 00:26:48.480
sellers. So it's a pretty broad
spectrum of everything in between that. But
389
00:26:48.559 --> 00:26:51.960
we do specialize in B two B
sales. But you know, so I'd
390
00:26:52.000 --> 00:26:53.559
say, you know, like the
core is the head of sales. You're
391
00:26:53.559 --> 00:26:57.039
trying to understand how to build the
best team possible, but you just don't
392
00:26:57.079 --> 00:27:00.839
have the time. And you know, that's the gap that we were plugging
393
00:27:00.920 --> 00:27:03.799
for them. Okay, do you
have a path for as the VIDEA that
394
00:27:03.839 --> 00:27:07.640
wants to become an executive? Do
you have a bus back the executive that
395
00:27:07.720 --> 00:27:11.640
wants to become Sam's vitals? So
you have these baths when you can.
396
00:27:11.960 --> 00:27:15.880
Okay, yeah, exactly right.
And you know, our vision on what
397
00:27:15.000 --> 00:27:19.039
we're doing is we call it enablement
as a service. We want to help
398
00:27:19.680 --> 00:27:25.160
sellers and their managers navigate the career
path. We want to help them develop
399
00:27:25.319 --> 00:27:29.599
from, you know, day one
that they come into the team and develop
400
00:27:29.680 --> 00:27:33.440
and grow them right up to the
day that they leave or or progress or
401
00:27:33.480 --> 00:27:37.079
promote. So you know, we
we try to be that that body,
402
00:27:37.440 --> 00:27:41.759
that Assistant to help guide them on
that development journey. So last point that
403
00:27:41.759 --> 00:27:45.079
I want to make I want to
speak about technology. So, of course
404
00:27:45.160 --> 00:27:49.079
you have very exciting about what you
guys do now great technlogy to support the
405
00:27:49.200 --> 00:27:55.240
development of your team. What ends
would you put around you guys to be
406
00:27:55.319 --> 00:27:56.640
successful and what I'm seeing, what
times I'm talking about. You know,
407
00:27:56.680 --> 00:28:00.279
automation. Crm, I think now
he's a community. You need to have
408
00:28:00.400 --> 00:28:03.480
once question of which one is the
best of company. But is there any
409
00:28:03.640 --> 00:28:08.839
donation? Doing they conversational intelligence tour
you know, what do you see as
410
00:28:08.880 --> 00:28:15.039
the ecosystem? Our successful sense mentioned, you know, Seri A and beyond
411
00:28:15.599 --> 00:28:21.599
tape of organization. It's a fantastic
question and I get asked this every day
412
00:28:21.640 --> 00:28:26.000
by clients because their handscape is moving
so quickly. You know that there's there's
413
00:28:26.079 --> 00:28:30.920
been so much investment in sales technology
in the past three to five years.
414
00:28:30.200 --> 00:28:33.559
So I look, I would start
off from from the beginning, right.
415
00:28:33.640 --> 00:28:38.960
So let's say you've just raised your
series a founder lead sales has got you
416
00:28:40.000 --> 00:28:42.400
to a million are are you've hired
that that head of sales to come and
417
00:28:42.559 --> 00:28:45.680
build out the function and the team. You may at that point have a
418
00:28:45.720 --> 00:28:51.400
small str function or you may have
outsourced it to someone like operatics. You've
419
00:28:51.400 --> 00:28:53.559
probably then got one or two a's
that you're bringing into the business as well
420
00:28:53.720 --> 00:28:59.240
to accelerate growth. At that point, crm or though, surprisingly, you
421
00:28:59.319 --> 00:29:03.240
know some businesses still don't have a
property rum at that stage, crm will
422
00:29:03.240 --> 00:29:07.000
take as a as a given.
Yeah, we typically see if they are
423
00:29:07.119 --> 00:29:14.640
doing outbound in house sales engagement technology
will be the natural second tool that they'll
424
00:29:14.680 --> 00:29:18.359
add to that stack, something like
a sales loft or an outreach. There's
425
00:29:18.359 --> 00:29:21.160
a number of other great tools of
the market now as well. So sales
426
00:29:21.160 --> 00:29:23.480
engagement is the one that we typically
see as as number two. I think
427
00:29:23.599 --> 00:29:30.400
number three just in terms of getting
visibility over conversations if you're not using the
428
00:29:30.680 --> 00:29:34.319
cool intelligence features within those tools.
Because I know both those tools that I
429
00:29:34.400 --> 00:29:37.960
mentioned do have see I. We
quite often see companies invest in a specialist
430
00:29:38.079 --> 00:29:42.319
see I tool as kind of tool
number three. Gong obviously have done amazing
431
00:29:42.519 --> 00:29:47.359
work and space and of growing really
fast. We at U hubs are massive
432
00:29:47.440 --> 00:29:52.480
advocates of Germany, which is a
UK based alternative. We use GIM eying
433
00:29:52.559 --> 00:29:56.119
here at you hubs and work closely
with Tom and the team. They're they're
434
00:29:56.200 --> 00:29:59.799
they're great. So I'd say see
I is it's often a kind of third
435
00:29:59.799 --> 00:30:03.400
too. And then it gets to
a point where you're onboarding more sellers as
436
00:30:03.559 --> 00:30:07.359
your business is growing. You're trying
to figure out how to hire good fit
437
00:30:07.519 --> 00:30:11.440
sales people. You're trying to figure
out how to develop them, ramp them
438
00:30:11.519 --> 00:30:14.960
up quickly and you're trying to figure
out how to keep them invested in and
439
00:30:15.079 --> 00:30:18.279
developing. And that's really where you
hubs tends to then come in, plugging
440
00:30:18.319 --> 00:30:22.920
in enablement as a service, and
I'd say for the vast majority of series
441
00:30:22.960 --> 00:30:26.480
a companies, you know, the
only other one I'd layer on top is
442
00:30:26.480 --> 00:30:30.319
obviously a data provider. Yeah,
YOU'RE gonna need to to fuel your sales
443
00:30:30.319 --> 00:30:34.000
engagement tool with some some data.
That's pretty much like a solid basic stack
444
00:30:34.119 --> 00:30:37.519
at series A. I think once
you get into series b things get a
445
00:30:37.559 --> 00:30:42.200
little bit more complex and that's when
the SAS spending really kicks off. But
446
00:30:42.359 --> 00:30:45.839
yeah, I think about it in
terms of that, that kind of natural
447
00:30:45.119 --> 00:30:48.599
progression from series a up to series
B. Yeah, that makes perfect sense.
448
00:30:49.160 --> 00:30:52.799
Well, look, Matt, thank
you so much sight today've great conversation.
449
00:30:53.039 --> 00:30:56.200
I'm very exciting at tired of people
maybe maybe speaking to you at some
450
00:30:56.279 --> 00:31:00.279
points gays, because we are we
we are leaks some of the things that
451
00:31:00.440 --> 00:31:04.119
you guys are doing, but it's
a little bit in silo. I think
452
00:31:04.160 --> 00:31:07.799
we we've got psychometric tests, but
I don't. I don't think they are.
453
00:31:07.880 --> 00:31:10.720
I think that quite extend outs.
I don't think that are really specially
454
00:31:10.759 --> 00:31:12.799
is two seals and we need to
better ourselves. So we we we've done
455
00:31:12.880 --> 00:31:18.200
some tries but we got we're getting
better now, but nothing is really getting
456
00:31:18.279 --> 00:31:21.440
to us the finish lines. So
I'll be I'll be listening closely to those
